Test length factor | choose test length factor - a number of questions in one test as
a percent of a default test length (which is bigger
for exercises with more testnotes and smaller
for less testnotes).
|
Choose level | the same as |
German/English notation
| there are two conventions for how to call a note between 'A' and 'C':
in England and US this note is called 'B'; in Germany (and most continental
Europe) this note is called 'H'; this menuitem allows you to choose your
convention
remark: to make it even more confusing, letter 'B' IS used in
German notation :( - it denotes 'H flat'
|
Voice input / voice input on/off | the same as
|
Voice input / microphone setup | This opens a 'Microphone calibration' - a wizard
dialog which will guide you step-by-step through the initial
microphone setup procedure.
Note, that on some soundcards mic setup does not
recognize igain. You can still fine-tune this with some other
programs (e.g. kmix). Hint: igain values about 10% are reasonable.
|
Voice input / Speaker model setup | Choose this to record sound samples with which you
will 'click' on namebuttons and steer this program.
|
Sound on/off | the same as
|
Sound setup... | opens sound setup window;
you can change here
MIDI options (use it if you don't hear sound), change sounds' lengths,
change midi patches ("instruments");
for details and suggestions see "What Is This?" tags
in this window |
Save options | saves program status to ~/.klearnnotes2_d/ ;
remark: options are saved on exit anyway; therefore,
probably the only use for this menuitem is to save state before
experimenting with sound/exercises etc. ; if you do something you want to
reverse, just choose "Restore options" from options menu
(BEFORE exiting the program) |
Restore options | restore program status from ~/.klearnnotes2_d/ ;
use this options if you want to start over from the program state
in which it started this time or last saved (for example in case you
mixed up some sound settings)
IMPORTANT:
program state is saved on exit! if you really mix
something up starting over would not help! to restore "factory defaults" ;)
delete your ~/.klearnnotes2_d/klearnnotes2_config file |
