Musical scale with various notes in conventional notation and Braille.

Description

This dataset provides a musical scale featuring various notes in both conventional notation and Braille. The material includes files containing the standard score (print notation), print-ready Braille notation files, and editable source files for the MusiBraille music notation software. This resource was developed within the context of research into assistive technology and inclusive music education. The dataset serves as an open educational resource and a technical product designed to support the teaching, learning, and accessible instrumental practice of visually impaired musicians.

Steps to reproduce

The musical score was written and transcribed using the Musibraille software (version 1.11). Using the software's export function, files for the conventional score (print notation) and versions for Braille printing were generated, along with files in MIDI and Braille Music File (BMF) formats. The physical printing of the material was carried out on a DeltaVP Braille printer, using a file specifically formatted for the device (Tiger format).
