Also, one of the drawbacks of SIB or Lime is that you have to learn to
memory the song you wish to play.  Nither will be viable in a play on demand
situation such as studio work or in a live situation.  You have to take the
time and learn each piece and put it all together.

BIAB will let you learn the songs while listening and reading out the
chords.  Depending on the situation, you could use BIAB as your backing
track in a live situation.

To be honest, I use both BIAB and SIB now for my learning.

If you can play by ear, I would recommend purchasing Band in a Box, and
download the free scripts for JAWS on the MIDI-Mag FTP site. Let me know and
I'll send along more information. You can download a demo version of BIAB
from PG Music.

Hi,

I want to restart playing the piano and guitar now I have discovered
electronic tools like Lime Aloud and Sibelius with the access scripts for
Jaws.  I can't read music Braille, or in fact any type of Braille.

Can anyone give their thoughts on good ways to learn new repeatoire?  Is
Lime Aloud good enough (and its cheaper), or is Sibelius with the access
scripts a better choice (though more expensive), or are there other tools
out there?  Should I invest in learning music Braille?

Thanks for any help,

Chris
