151.1.0 Overview
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
EZPNO is an open-ended piano instruction program. Its goal is
to encourage people with little or no musical experience to learn
to play the piano. However, piano students of all levels will
find it to be a valuable learning aid. When supplied with
standard music notation, the 11EZPNO Tutor translates the score
into a step-by-step teaching tool that uses three-dimensional
computer graphics and audible music. With a MIDI keyboard, the
student may practice sight-reading of the sheet music as EZPNO
follows the progress. Music notation may be entered manually in
the 11EZPNO Editor by the user or piano instructor, or imported
from a standard MIDI file. Song files may be saved as EZPNO
files, or as standard MIDI files for use with other music
software.
Or just for fun, fire up the 11EZPNO Player which features
General-MIDI instrument selection by clef, graphic animation, and
song lyrics during playback for karaoke-style sing-alongs.
151.2.0 System Requirements
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
IBM compatible PC with hard disk and 1 floppy disk drive
MS-DOS 3.3 or greater
VGA graphics adaptor
640K RAM
Mouse optional
Sound card / MIDI interface recommended
Math Coprocessor
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
EZPNO features an full 88-key three-dimensional piano in regular
and zoom views. If you have a math coprocessor (DX chip), you may
set 11[3D draw] in the Global Settings dialogue box (Function key
15<F6>). This will enhance the three-dimensional quality of the
images. If you do not have a math coprocessor, the drawing will
be slow in this mode.
151.3.0 Installation
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
EZPNO must be installed on the hard drive to operate correctly.
Insert the program diskette into drive A.
At the DOS prompt, type 15a:install and press 15<Enter>.
(replace b: for a: for floppy drive B)

15 3. 3D Piano Image Installation
151.3.1 Starting the Program
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Be sure to be in the \EZPNO directory when you start the
program. EZPNO searches only the current directory for its
supporting files. Type 15e-z-p-n-o to start the application.
151.3.2 EZPNO command line switches
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The following switches may be typed after 15'ezpno' at the DOS prompt:
15-? Display all command line arguments.
15-i[xx] Override MPU401 IRQ (default=2)
15-p[xxx] Override MPU401 port address (default=330h)
15-q Quiet mode.
15-pc Force PC speaker.
15-mpu Force Roland MPU401.
15-sb Force Sound Blaster.
15-gus Force UltraSound driver.
15-vmp Force Voyetra VMP driver.
15-x[xxxx] Detects and uses Extended memory(XMS) for program overlays.
Sometimes EZPNO loads program code from disk (eg. for
dialogue boxes, on-line help). With this switch enabled,
EZPNO can save overlays in XMS for faster retrieval. This may
improve program performance. A starting address may be set in
kilobytes (eg. ezpno -x1000: use XMS at address 1,000,000).
15-e Detects and uses Expanded memory(EMS) for program overlays.
See description above for XMS.
151.3.3 3D Piano Image Installation
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
When loading EZPNO for the first time, it will run a quick installation
program to create 3D piano image files. Simply follow the instructions
on the screen.
151.4.0 Sound Card / MIDI Interface drivers
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
EZPNO automatically searches for the sound card or driver installed on
your system. If no sound card or driver is found, EZPNO uses the PC speaker
for sound. If more than one card is installed, you must specify the card
desired on the command line (see 1.3.2 EZPNO command line switches).
The following sound cards are currently supported:
04Sound Card/MIDI Interface driver
Roland MPU401, or compatible -
Sound Blaster -
Advanced Gravis UltraSound ultramid
Others Voyetra VMP drivers
15 Items for this Section:
15 1. Roland MPU401
15 2. Sound Blaster
15 3. Advanced Gravis UltraSound
15 4. Other sound cards
151.4.1 Roland MPU401
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The default IRQ is 2. The default MIDI port address is 330h.
These settings may be overrided on the command line with the
15-i switch or the 15-p switch.
15eg. ezpno -i5 -p300
This command sets EZPNO to use IRQ 5 and port address 300h.
(see 1.3.2 EZPNO command line switches)
151.4.2 Sound Blaster
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The BLASTER environment variable must be set in order for EZPNO to
use the Sound Blaster card correctly.
15eg. SET BLASTER=A220 I7 D1 T3
(A=Base port I/O address, I=IRQ number,
D=DMA channel, T=Sound Blaster version)
You should have a line that looks like this in your autoexec.bat file.
See the Sound Blaster user manual for more details.
To use the Sound Blaster MIDI interface adaptor, your card must have
DSP ROM version 2.00 or later.
151.4.3 Advanced Gravis UltraSound
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The ultramid driver must be loaded prior to running EZPNO. To load, simply
type 15'u-l-t-r-a-m-i-d' at the DOS prompt. The following command line
switches may be used with ultramid:
15-16 Use 16-bit patches for improved sound performance. The
default is 8-bit.
15-c Preloads a 256K, 512K 768K or 1024K patch library, depending
on how much memory you have on your UltraSound card.
15-f Unload ultramid from memory
15-m[xxx] [1-127] Sets the master volume for music. The default
volume is 127.
15-d[path] Use an alternate path for finding the ultramid configuration
file and for finding patches. The path should include a
trailing backslash (e.g.) -Dc:\game\
151.4.4 Other sound cards
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
EZPNO supports many more sound cards via the VMP drivers created by
Voyetra Technologies. Call Kula Software for more information
as to how to obtain these drivers.

(1K), it will be displayed on a red background as a warning. When
memory is very low, notes may be lost during some editing
operations, and some dialogue boxes may be unable to display
selection lists.
Next to the free memory display, is the number of bytes in the
Measure Buffer. The Measure Buffer is filled during cut and copy
operations in the EZPNO Editor.
152.9.0 File Saving
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The song displayed on the screen is a working copy. All editing
functions will permanently alter this working copy. Whenever an
edit occurs, a music symbol () will appear next to the song title.
Be sure to save the song to the hard disk frequently to avoid
accidental editing mistakes.

153.3.1 Track Selection
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Select the MIDI track to be imported to the Treble or Bass clef.
Enter 15<?> or click the mouse in the track window to see a list of
available tracks. The default tracks are the first two tracks found.
153.3.2 Measure Range
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
A measure range may be specified for importing a track part. This
may become necessary for large tracks due to memory limitations.
The allowable range is 0 to 999.
153.3.3 Clef Selector
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
If only one track is desired for importing, choose the Treble or
Bass clef from the Clef selector. 15'Both Clefs' is the default.
153.3.4 Quantize
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The Quantize function allows the timing of raw MIDI data to be structured
for notation purposes. This is especially important for imported MIDI
files that are created by raw recording only. Because music timing is
never perfect from such recording, EZPNO must know how to align note
starting times that are not precisely on beat, and the minimum duration
of each note.
Note-On
────────────────────
The lowest resolution is 4, so that all notes would be forced to start
at the nearest Quarter note boundary. The highest resolution is 32,
for which all notes would be aligned along the nearest Thirty-two note
boundary. The higher the resolution, the more accurately does the notation
reflect the original piece of music. However more memory is required for
higher resolutions.
Note Duration
────────────────────
The minimum duration for each note ranges between Quarter note and
Thirty-two note. All raw note durations that are found to be less than
this minimum, will be lengthened so as to conform to this setting.
If the 11[?] setting is selected, EZPNO will quantize each note duration
automatically, based on the next note starting time.
153.3.5 Play
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Enter 15<P> or click 11[Play] to play the tracks that have been selected.
This way, you may hear your selection before EZPNO converts the
track(s) to music notation.
Enter 15<A> or click 11[Play All] to play all available tracks.
153.3.6 New File
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Enter 15<W> or click 11[New...] to return to the File Input dialogue
box so as to import a new file.

15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The music notation window consists of a white music sheet, treble
(right hand/upper) staff, and bass (left hand/lower) staff. The
current time signature will appear at the beginning of the first
measure. The song pointer is a vertical line that marks the
current chord position. There will always be one empty chord
position in every measure so that the measure may expand.
Navigation is always restricted to existing chord positions. If
the edit window is opened at this empty chord position, a new
chord will be added. Opening the edit window on an existing chord
allows editing of that chord. A song's music notation is
displayed linearly and may be viewed by panning left or right.

154.5.2 Edit Window Description
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The mode heading is displayed at the top right of the edit window.
There are four edit modes available:
1. 15Edit -Edit the current chord
2. 15Add -Add new chord at end of measure
3. 15Insert -Insert a new chord before the current chord
4. 15Merge -Merge a new chord with the current chord
The arrow along the left side of the edit window marks the current
note position. This is the staff line or space that note editing
occurs. A key position pointer along the bottom piano display marks
the current piano key. When a note is selected, a small box will mark
the corresponding piano key.
Notes are displayed as hollow circles. If an accidental
(sharp,flat,natural) is present, it will be displayed before the
note. The number shown after the note is the note duration (1=Whole,
2=Half, 4=Quarter, 8=Eighth, 16=Sixteenth, 32=Thirty-two).
Dotted notes are marked by a small dot next the note.
The following icons are available:

14See 4.5.5 Sharp or flat a note for accessing staff positions that are
14out of bounds.
154.5.5 Sharp or flat a note
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
A note may be made sharp or flat by pressing 15<+> or 15<-> on a
existing note, or by dragging the note vertically with the 14MLB.
To enter a note at a staff position that is out of bounds, add a note near
the boundary and use the 15<+> or 15<-> keys to move the note past the
boundary. Follow the pointer along the bottom piano display.
To access an existing note at a staff position that is out of bounds make
sure the note position pointer (arrow along left side) is not pointing
to a note, and press the 15<+> or 15<-> keys.
154.5.6 Tie a note
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
A note may be tied to another by toggling 15<X> or double-clicking
the 14MLB at an existing note position. This is only necessary for
the first note of a tied pair. 15<Shift><X> operates on all notes
of the active clef. The symbol for the tied note is an 15'x' in the
note circle.
154.5.7 Create a triplet group
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
To mark the current chord as part of a triplet, press 15<Shift><3>.
A 15'3' symbol will appear at the top right corner for the treble
clef, and at the bottom right corner for the bass clef. Three
consecutive chord positions must be marked in this way to create
a triplet group.
154.5.8 Merge Notes
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
With the Edit Window open <Shift><M> enables the Merge Mode. This mode
is only necessary when two notes must occupy the same staff position.
When positioning the Edit Window over an existing merged chord, only
merged notes are available for editing.
154.6.0 Chord Editing
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
There are three chord editing icons available:
11[Cut] (Scissors symbol) 15<Shift><Delete>
11[Copy] 15<Shift><Spacebar>
11[Paste] (Tape symbol 15<Shift><Insert>

14See 7.6 Text Editing for available text editing commands.
154.8.5 Measure Editing
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The 11[Edit] icon opens the Measure Editing dialogue box. The Measure
Editing functions are divided into two groups. The first group
(Cut,Copy,Shift,Quantize) may operate on a range of measures, and
may be selected by clef. The second group (Paste,Merge,Insert) may
be repeated.
Measure Buffer
────────────────────
Cut and Copy functions save notation in the Measure Buffer. The size
of the Measure Buffer is always displayed at the top right of the
screen. The contents of the measure buffer may be pasted or merged
at any point in the song. The Measure Buffer may also be exported to
or imported from a file, so that song parts may be transferred between
song files. The Measure Buffer is automatically cleared when a new song
is loaded, or when memory has been exhausted.
Clef Selector
────────────────────
Select the clef for which editing operations are active.
15'Both Clefs' is the default.
Measure Range
────────────────────
Select the measure range for which editing operations are active.
The allowable range is 0 to 999.
Press 15<A> or click 11[All] to select all
measures for the edit operation.
The From-Measure and To-Measure may be marked with 15<Ctrl><F1> and
15<Ctrl><F2> respectively. Press 15<N> or click 11[Range] to input this
preset range.
Cut
────────────────────
Enter 15<U> or click 11[Cut] to delete or clear the selected range of measures.
If Clef is set to 15'Both', the measure range is deleted. Otherwise, the
selected clef is cleared within the measure range. Deleted or cleared
measures are saved in the Measure Buffer for future pasting, merging,
or exporting.
Copy
────────────────────
Enter 15<O> or click 11[Copy] to copy the selected range of measures to be
saved in the Measure Buffer for future pasting, merging, or exporting.
Shift
────────────────────
Enter 15<S> or click 11[Shift] to shift notation from one clef to the other
for the selected measure range. You must choose the clef (Treble or Bass)
that you want to transfer from. This feature is especially useful for
imported MIDI files to separate one track onto both Treble and Bass clefs.
This function causes EZPNO to recreate music notation and to force all
measures to conform to the time signature. All manual changes to
the notation will be lost.
Once selected, a highlighted horizontal line will appear in the
notation window along with the Clef Boundary dialogue box. This
horizontal line represents the clef boundary of the selected clef. If
the Treble clef has been selected, all notes on and above the line will
remain on the clef, and all others will be transferred to the Bass clef.
If the Bass clef has been selected, all notes on and below the line will
remain on the clef, and all others will be transferred to the Treble clef.
Move the clef boundary line using the 15< > and 15< > keys
or dragging or clicking the mouse. The boundary may be fine tuned by
pressing the 15<+> or 15<-> keys, or by manually entering the MIDI note
value.
Quantize
────────────────────
Enter 15<Q> or click 11[Quantize] to quantize the selected range of measures.
This feature is especially useful for imported MIDI files so as to align
note starting times and standardize note durations. This function
causes EZPNO to recreate music notation and to force all measures to
conform to the time signature. All manual changes to the notation
will be lost.
Once selected, the Quantize dialogue box will appear (see 3.3.4 Quantize).
Paste
────────────────────
Enter 15<P> or click 11[Paste] to paste the contents of the Measure Buffer
at the current song position. Pasted measures will be inserted before
the current measure. The Measure Buffer is cleared following a Paste
operation.
Merge
────────────────────
Enter 15<M> or click 11[Merge] to merge the contents of the Measure Buffer
starting at the current measure. The notation of each measure in the
Measure Buffer will be combined with that of the current and subsequent
measures of the song. If the end of the song has been reached, any
remaining measures in the Measure Buffer will be appended to the song.
The Measure Buffer is cleared following a Merge operation.
14Tip:
14The easiest way to enter sheet music is to enter the Treble clef
14and Bass clef notation in different measures. Afterwards, you may
14merge the Bass clef measures into the Treble clef measures
14(or vice-versa).
Insert
────────────────────
Enter 15<I> or click 11[Insert] to insert a new empty measure before the
current measure.
Repeat
────────────────────
This parameter instructs EZPNO as to how many times a given paste, merge,
or insert operation is to be performed. The default is one time (1).
154.9.0 Song Statistics
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
15<F4> opens the Song Statistics dialogue box. This box
displays the key signature, time signature, treble clef beats,
bass clef beats, and the sight-reading score for each measure. If
the number of beats found in a clef does not match the time
signature, an asterisk (*) will be displayed next to the beat
number. The song performance score displayed at the bottom is the
average of all measure sight-reading scores. You may select a
measure to view by moving the highlighted bar to the desired
measure and pressing 15<Enter> or double-clicking the 14MLB.
154.10.0 Song Settings
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
15<F5> opens the Song Settings dialogue box. The text mode icon
selects the type of text that will be displayed at the top of the
notation window. The default is 15'chord label'. 'Song lyrics' or
'no text' are the other options.

156.1.0 Overview
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The EZPNO Tutor is designed so that a song may be learned measure
by measure, step by step. In this mode, every chord position is
sounded and drawn on the piano along the bottom of the screen.
The following is a list of available functions:
04 Icon Hot-Key Function
11[((*))] 15<Enter> Sound current chord
11[ - ] 15< - > Next chord position
11[Home ] 15<Home> First chord position

156.3.0 Global Settings
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Function key 15<F6> opens the Global Settings dialogue box. All settings
are saved to a configuration file when the program ends.
Chord Note Length
────────────────────
This parameter specifies the duration of individual notes of a chord,
when sounded in the EZPNO Editor or Tutor. The allowable range is
0 to 480 ticks. (120 ticks = 1 Quarter note)
Chord Arpeggio
────────────────────
Arpeggio specifies the delay in ticks between individual notes of a chord,
when sounded in the EZPNO Editor or Tutor.
(120 ticks = 1 Quarter note)
Tutor Auto Delay
────────────────────
This parameter is used for timing purposes in the Auto function of the
EZPNO Tutor. Increasing this value improves the musical timing but slows
the automatic stepping. If timing is less important, decrease this value
to improve the speed of the automatic stepping.
3D drawing
────────────────────
Setting 3D draw will enhance the three-dimensional quality of the piano
images in the EZPNO Tutor. However a math coprocessor (DX chip) is
recommended for acceptable speed.
156.4.0 Sight-Reading
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Press 15<S> or click the 11[Sight-Read] icon to activate this function.
Hit any key on the computer keyboard to stop. A MIDI keyboard must be
connected to the MIDI-In port of your MIDI interface.
In this mode, the EZPNO Tutor tracks your progress while you
sight-read the sheet music appearing on the screen using your
MIDI keyboard.
Specify the number of measures to sight-read by pressing 15<M>, or
clicking the 11[Mes] icon. Sight-reading will begin from the current
measure and will repeat after the specified number of measures have
been read, or the end of the song has been reached.
When the correct note is played, a check mark (√) will appear besides
the note. When all notes of the current chord position have been played,
you will automatically advance to the next position. The chord will be
highlighted, and the number of incorrect notes played will be displayed
at the top. After each measure, a score for the measure will be displayed
at left of the notation window. This score is derived from the number of
notes in the measure divided by the number of notes played. A total score
for all the measures of the practice session will be displayed below the
measure score.
Hit any key on the computer keyboard to end this mode. You may open the
the Song Statistics dialogue box 15<F4> to review all measure scores and
the total song performance score. These scores are saved with the
song, and are replaced at the next sight-reading session.
To select only one clef for sight-reading, deactivate the other clef
by setting its MIDI channel to 15'0' (see 2.10 Clef Deactivation).
156.5.0 Color / Finger Position Conventions
15───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The right and left hand keys are colored green and light blue
respectively. When the a key is to be held down, the color will
