What is it?
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.
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
352x416 pixel displays. This covers the vast majority of
S60 3rd Edition devices, but NOT the N91 or E90. Yet.
How to install it:
1)Install Python (self-signed) for 3rd Edition from
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=154155
[note that if you have a TI-2420 accelerator chip in your phone,
choose this version etc. If you don't know (as is likely), just go
with the generic S60 3rd Edition etc.]
2)Install Python Script shell (self-signed) for 3rd Edition
from the same place
[That's Python installed and you can now create your own apps
or run any other S60-specific Python scripts you come across]
3)Copy the \Python and \Musician folders from this archive onto
your smartphone's expansion card, either using PC Suite or
with a card reader/writer
To run Musician, start Python (in 'My own' or 'Applications' or
'Installations', normally) and use the menu option:'Run script'
and pick 'Musician.py'
