Actually, there are several alternafor braille note taking out there.  You 
can find info about pacmate at the freedomscientific web site and about 
braille sense at the gwmicro web site.

The only way I know of to display braille music on a braille display is to 
have it coded in advance and to make sure that your display or Assistive 
Technology is set to display computer braille.

Subject: Braille Sense vs Pac Mate & refreshable music notation??


Can someone give me some comparisons between Braille Sense and Freedom
Scientific's Pac Mate please.

I have a student who is enrolled in a music program that is very comfortable
using a refreshable braille display but the notetaker she is currently using 
is
from highschool and will eventually have to be returned.

Also, does anyone know if refreshable displays will diplay braille music
notation??

thanks in advance for any help/advice anyone can provide!
