Improved pitch detection... Game sounds are better muted to allow for more accurate pitch detection. Users can be sorted alphabetically for studios with a large number of students. Other minor miscellaneous bug fixes.

Two brand new themes are included for free in version 3.2 of Flashnote Derby. Ecliptic Encounter turns the horse race into a space battle and should be especially appealing to slightly older students. Pretty Pegasus swaps out the horses for Pegasus...es(?). It takes place high above the clouds and has gentler sound effects and soothing graphics. For music teachers managing studios or classrooms or multiple devices, device cloning has been added which allows you to copy a set of users and preset drills to multiple devices quickly and easily.

Now works with iPad Pro 10.5"! No more crashes when launching.

• iPhone X users- Flashnote Derby now works with your phone! • Now answer flashcards by playing your TRANSPOSING instrument. For instance, playing a middle C on a b-flat trumpet will be correctly interpreted as a C. Lots of different transposition intervals are supported. • If you choose the Reindeer Race theme, your preference will be remembered the next time you launch the app.

Version 3.1 of Flashnote Derby is here! • Sharps and flats can be added to any note. Simply tap and hold on a note to bring up the options. • One or more key signatures can be chosen for note drills. Notes must be played correctly according to the displayed key signature. • Teachers can link their device to the device(s) their student uses at home. Are your students really practicing their notes as much as they say? Track minutes practiced as well as which notes are drilled and the success rates. • Sending preset drills to students is easier. Start typing the student's name and Flashnote Derby will try to fill-in their email address from your Contacts. And now you can send the same drill to multiple students at the same time.

Introducing the biggest update to Flashnote Derby ever! Three big new features that you've been asking for: 1. Expanded range- now drill notes up to FIVE ledger lines above and below the staff. (Especially helpful for flute students!) 2. Inclusion of alto and tenor clefs- finally our viola and cello playing friends get a little love. 3. Presets- save a frequently used drill as a preset. All the notes in the drill can be called up with the touch of a button. Plus, teachers will love the improved ability to e-mail specific drills to their students which can then be saved as a preset on their devices. It is also now possible to reset the high score to zero, which can be helpful in group teaching situations. Lots of other minor bug fixes and improvements, including support for the 4 inch retina screen of the iPhone 5, 5c, and 5s.

*** Full list of shiny new features in this version *** • In addition to using letter buttons to answer, you can now use an on-screen piano keyboard. • Option to turn off all sound effects • The settings window has been redesigned to look nicer and include the new game options. • When student loses a race, a kinder message (Try Again) is displayed. • Improved performance with iOS 6. • Instead of horses and jockeys, for the months of November, December, and January, you can race with reindeer and elves! *** Please note that this version of Flashnote Derby requires iOS version 4.3 or greater. If you have an older device, check to see that it meets or exceeds this requirement. Have a suggestion for the next update to Flashnote Derby? Drop me a line at www.FlashnoteDerbyApp.com.

For music students: Flashnote Derby now comes with easy access to a dozen instructional videos from right inside the app! Students can learn about the music alphabet and the music staff and then start memorizing actual music notes. The music staff is broken into small sections of four or five notes to make memorization easier, and there is a corresponding note drill to go along with each lesson. Even children who have had no prior musical instruction can use Flashnote Derby to start learning about notes on the staff. For music teachers: Teachers now have the ability to send specific note drilling assignments from the app itself. Simply set up the drill the way you want it for your student and click the mail icon. They will receive an email with a link that configures their copy of Flashnote Derby with the exact same settings. No more explaining to parents what notes you want their child to practice at home. Simply send them an email that allows them to practice the exact drill you had in mind for them.

Flashnote Derby now works with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad! Other improvements: In addition to the score, the total number of correct answers is shown. Smoother animation. Fixed a bug where the winner was not correctly determined in a 'photo-finish'.
