Why eJay is ideal for teaching music in
schools
1.
Intuitive interface and embedded basic PC
skills
The
basic principle of eJay software is that anyone can load the software and
produce music in a matter of minutes. Students can choose from thousands
of pre-recorded samples (all in the same tempo and key), which they drag
and drop into the Arranger using their mouse to build a song. They can
save this song to the hard drive and import tracks they have made earlier
back into the software.
2.
Content which appeals to young
people
The samples
included in each package reflect current trends in popular music so that
students can make the kind of music they actually listen to at home.
3.
Advanced features
eJay is not limited to arranging pre-recorded
sample blocks! For example, each package contains virtual instruments for
creating new samples. There is also an FX Studio for editing individual
samples and a Mixer for fine-tuning the song.
