The idea came from a YouTube video by a Russian pianist. At the time I was looking for advice to teach myself to sight-read better, and was consulting youtube videos. His advice was to look ahead while reading, and imagine the notes scrolling towards some point, at which you played them. The app you see is the result. There was an earlier version that used LaTeX/MusicTex to render the tablature and java.midi to play the notes .. but the images were flashcards which played after a time delay. Back in java 1.4-1.5 there used to be a better soundbank and you could change instruments ... now it's kind of tinny sounding, but the freqs are still the same and it's still obvious whether you've played the correct notes or not.
I wrote these apps out of necessity, initially, but put-in tons more time to make them usable by others. Not many people know about them, mainly because I'm not very good at self promotion. Sooo, if you can "like" it on FB, promote it among your circles, or any other ways of helping it/them get some more visibility, that would be most excellent :-)
