Musician : a tool for musicians

What is it?

Musician: A musician’s tool. I wanted a tuner for my guitar and violin, plus a metronome to start songs off at the right tempo, and the current S60 programs just didn’t work. Hence Musician. It was also created as my very first Python program (see the notes below).

There are polyphonic tuning tones for E, B, G, D and A, enough to tune both guitar and violin. The tones last for a configurable length of time. The metronome will display beats at any tempo from 50 to 220 beats per minute, with an optional ‘metronome’ sound sample. And a playable mini-piano will let you play out simple melodies.

Musician :Download it now for Symbian OS/S60 3rd Edition
(e.g. Nokia E61, N73, N93, N95…)

Download the latest v3.2 here as musician32.zip (39K). Please read the notes in the Readme.txt file about first needing to install the latest version of the Python interpreter on your smartphone. See below!

This version of Musician works with QVGA (320 by 240) or 352×416 pixel displays. This covers the vast majority of S60 3rd Edition devices, but NOT the N91 or E90. Yet.

MC Features

* operators: + – * / () & (string concatenation) ^(power), comparison operators: = != < > <= >=
* functions: SIN,COS,TAN,COT, ASIN,ACOS,ATAN,ATAN2, SQRT,LN,ABS,EXP,POW, SUM, logical: IF, AND,OR

* pointer support (use pointer to select a cell, and click again to edit it)
MicroCalc download
The current version of Microcalc (MC) is 0.7.8 (updated 17 Nov 2004). It’s available in several packages:

* basic package for general j2me enabled device: microcalc.jad & microcalc.jar. No additional midlets are included into the package, size under 32k.
* package for Siemens phones (includes export utility to SYLK file): microcalc45sylk.jad & microcalc45sylk.jar.
* MicroCalc Lite: microcalclite.jad & microcalclite.jar – the same as basic package with some features removed to keep jar file size within 30k. Use this on Nokia 3590, 6310, or any other that cannot run the basic package because of midlet size limitation.
* PRC file for use on Palm OS devices: microcalc.prc.

Basic package can be obtained from www.handango.com (for free). More →
