What I meant was that sight reading has very little do do with knowing which note a note is. This is more about learning the basics of reading. I practice 1-2

  > Being able to generate weird melodies to challenge all the combinations you have stored in your brain (...) pretty much dice rolls on paper Thanks for the follow-up! In your parent comment you were talking about scales and the fact that one is able to guess the next note if they know the scale. Now random "dice roll" music may be a little easier to produce, and maybe not very far from what we have already. Can you elaborate on what you would need, specifically? Chromatic random music (using all 12 notes, including accidentals), in the range of the bassoon? And what do you mean by "play along"? Would you simply need the app to make some sound, or would you expect it to detect and analyze what the player does? (This would require MIDI, and in my experience, the few MIDI wind instruments that exist are unpopular with instrumentalists, to say the least.) Or -- what about generating random sheet music (PDFs) on demand? That would be a great project, I would love to work on that.
