Development

We have developed the specification of AdMaestro by our best knowledge because the same kind of software does not exist by our investigation. Therefore we are not so sure about the marketability of AdMaestro and how our specification is accepted by end users.
As we believe the basic functions of AdMaestro reach a satisfactory level, we have decided to release the product as beta version by the end of March. However, we should limit the total release numbers as 100 sets in March since we are not ready to set up a help desk.

Apart from the basic functions of AdMaestro, We assume some difficulty on Editor as it employs Microsoft Excel and it is not easy for those who are not familiar with Excel. Actual conductors write their interpretation of the music in a score during their study and use the score for their performance. The same would be the best solution for AdMaestro, and it might be possible if digital scores were available for almost all musical works. So far, we ought to find better solution by Excel.

We will develop the program which accepts the input by footswitch(s). This idea will help wind players and string players play with minus-one CD by themselves.

During our test period, we asked our friends to use AdMaestro in various ways. Among them, there are pianists, string players, singer, professional conductor, friends who are not familiar with music. We are surprised that many of them have rather poor knowledge and skill on basic conducting except the professional conductor and those who play in the orchestra. Thus, we acknowledge the necessity to prepare a training system for our users.

We plan to upgrade the version by the end of June, major change would be as follows;
-improve the current basic functions
-achieve the performance by footswitch(s)
-better solution for Editor
