DESCRIPTION
At last there is a product for the Amiga computer where young
children can have fun learning about music! WindShadow Software has
introduced "Making Music with Bertie Bunny". This is a product that
is only available for the Commodore Amiga computer. It fully
employs the multimedia capabilities of the computer.
There are many features to enhance your enjoyment:
- Fun for children of all ages. Even a 2 year old can "Bang Keys"
to control Bertie. Bertie Bunny will automatically move from
place to place on the display. The child can simply bang on the
keys to cause Bertie to choose an instrument or tune.
Older children can use the mouse. This makes it quicker to make
selections and helps them to develop fine motor skills.
- Learn to recognize the sound of various musical instruments.
- Learn to recognize various musical tunes from one or more of 4
different parts: the melody, a counterpoint to the melody,
an obbligato accompaniment or a rhythmic accompaniment.
- Hear how different instruments sound in combination with each
other.
- Use the computer keyboard as a musical instrument. You can
select which instrument sounds are to be used and then play
notes (up to 4 at a time will sound) and see the corresponding
key-presses on a piano keyboard.
- Readily installs on a hard drive. Installation uses Commodore's
Installer utility. The Installer program is supplied
under license from Commodore.
- Supports the NTSC and PAL video standards and 6 languages.
- Multitasks on the more powerful models of Amiga. Other
software can run in the background at a low priority, for example,
3D rendering, compiling large programs, or downloading batches of
files.
- the manual is in AmigaGuide format. The AmigaGuide program
is supplied under license from Commodore.
This product is unusual in that it is easy to use for children as
young as 2 years old, while providing creative opportunities for
older children to explore.
