+SAVING AND LOADING FILES
+A file created or edited in Moosique can be saved to the standard MIDI file format by using the Save and Save As options from the File menu [ 5 ]. In order to load files, choose Open from the File menu or give the filename as a command-line parameter upon execution (see section "COMMAND-LINE SYNTAX").
+
+If the current sequence has not yet been saved, a dialog will be displayed prompting the user to save or discard the sequence before creating or opening a new one.
+
+PLAY A MIDI SONG
+By selecting the Playback menu [ 6 ] or clicking on one of the playback buttons [ 7 ] the MIDI song who is loaded can be played, stopped or paused.
+PREFERENCES
+By default, the application will use the Java standard synthesizer and sequencer. The MIDI device setup can be accessed by selecting Preferences from the Edit menu.
+
+COMMAND-LINE SYNTAX (FOR EXPERTS)
+java -jar moosique.jar [-N] [filename]
+-N Starts playback of the given MIDI file without creating with user interface. If no filenamne is given -N is ignored.
+
+SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
+For Moosique to run properly, the Java Runtime Machine installed on the computer must be version 1.3 or later. To play music it is needed to have a soundcard that supports MIDI installed (see your soundcard manual for information).
+
+TROUBLESHOOTING
+Problem: The required MIDI devices cannot be allocated.
+Solution: Call Moosique Support at +46-70-6017917 or +46-31-298879.

+GLOSSARY
+Channel - In ordinary language, a channel is a path for passing data. In MIDI, channels are used to separate different sections of a song that are going to play together. Each channel is
+assigned to a single instrument in any particular instant of time. One channel is usually reserved for a percussion voice.
+Pitch - The property of a musical tone, determined by frequency.
+Sequencer - So called because such a program arranges melodic and harmonic patterns in successive positions. Strictly speaking, one should define a sequencer has something that stores note-on and note-off events in memory, then plays them back.
+Synthesizer - A device driven by a microprocessor, which contains a programmable chip. Examples of instruments that can control synthesizers: Guitar, keyboard, wind, string, drum controllers. The keyboard itself does not produce musical sound. A synthesizer circuit, built into the keyboard, accomplishes this function. Originally, a synthesizer was so called because it synthesized acoustic instruments. Nowdays, the term refers to the sound-
+generating circuitry of any MIDI gear. Another term is sound module.
+Time Signature - In traditional musical notations, this is expressed as a fractional sign, like 3/4. The denominator indicates the unit for the beat; the numerator shows the number of notes per measure.
+Track - In MIDI, the term "track" designates a location where one records or plays back a musical message usually a portion of the total arrangement. To illustrate, one might record an oboe melody line on Track Two, then record a bowed bass line on Track Three. When
+played, the sounds can be simultaneous. Most MIDI software now accommodates 64 tracks of music, enough for a rich orchestral sound. Important: Tracks are purely for convenience; channels are required.
+Transpose - To perform a musical composition in a different key. Both synthesizers and sequencers can carry out this function. Velocity The MIDI way of determining how hard a note is pressed on the keyboard controller.
