iRig Blueturn

A very simple idea to deal with a very awkward problem: I’ve got my music on a tablet but I’ve got to the bottom of the first of four pages. Now what? How do I turn the page when both my hands are on my instrument? Well not being Zaphod Beeblebrox* and not wishing to…

Roadie 3

I’ll be good, I promise, and try to avoid jokes about wind-up merchants, but I don’t promise nuffink. After all this is about a product whose whole purpose is winding things up. Well, strings anyway. On banjos, guitars, mandolins and ukuleles with breakdowns for different types of those instruments, And as if that wasn’t enough…

Sibelius

This a renowned music notation software that has been widely used by composers, musicians, and educators. It’s now a subscription service so you may wish to think about that before buying because this could turn out to be quite expensive. There are several variants. Sibelius First (free to get) gives you just 4 staves to…

AnthemScore

AnthemScore is specialized software designed for automatic music transcription. It’s developed by Lunaverus and has been recognized for its ability to convert audio files into sheet music or guitar tabs with impressive accuracy. It does make some mistakes though, which is why you will probably also need to get hold of score editing software. Depending on…

Komplete Audio 6 Mk2

Well, what a surprise, although I suppose it shouldn’t really be one. This is a radically different animal to the Mk-1. The most noticeable difference (apart from the black colour) is that instead of a series of LED telling you a port is active you’ve got a display that shows you the output level on…

Presonus Faderport 8

As soon as I saw this device it got filed in the category of “I want One of Those”. Ok, I had been looking for something like this but one specific requirement always seemed to be missing. I mean is it too much to ask that a mixing desk should behave like the ones you…

Magnetic Pencil Holder

OK, here’s the scene. You’re playing in an orchestra, you’re at rehearsals and the conductor wants to make some changes to your score. You had a pencil on your music stand but the vibrations from the kettle drums has jiggled it off the stand, heading at speed towards the 1st violins and off the edge…

Konig & Meyer Adjustable Music Stand

One thing that a lot of people make a mistake about are music stands. There are two types: cheap ones and more expensive ones. The main difference is you’ll buy a lot more cheap ones than dear ones because the cheap ones will fail quickly, often when it’s least convenient, while the dear ones will…

My First Classical Book

Aimed at introducing young children to classical music with information about the composers and their works as well as instruments of the orchestra. Shame it only comes with a CD rather than audio access. Nonetheless with music ranging from Mozarts’ Magic Flute to Williams’ Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone there’s a range of music…

Story Orchestra

A great way of introducing your children to classical music. A range of well known favourites that we at The Music Realm listened to ourselves when we were young…which was, admittedly many years ago, but they are timeless classics for a reason! In this series you’ll find Prokofievs’ Peter and the Wolf, Holsts’ Planets Suite,…
