Carl mentions his experience with "Teach Me Piano" and my experience with "Miracle Piano Tutor" which is also secret source is similar.
Worse, "Miracle" is now an ORPHAN in that the original author team have moved on to other things and the company they worked for is defunct.

I've traced a couple of the authors but even if I were able to convince them to release the source code it could not happen unless ALL of the original copyright holders agreed. This shows the tremendous strength of PianoBooster -- even if a few of us fall by the wayside, the project will continue to develop and just keep getting better and better.

Now, my questions:-

The "Miracle" system used separate left-hand and right-hand music pieces in the early stage of learning. Is this important to effective computer assisted leaning of the piano?

The "Miracle" system also used finger numbering on the on screen score, is this similarly important to effective computer assisted leaning of the piano?

Certainly these two features seemed to help me in a more powerful way than "Teach Me" which I also tried in the early days.

If so, are we interested in my re-creating the copyright free pieces in the Miracle system?

Some of those pieces that come to mind are "Oats, Peas and Barley", "Mary Had a Little Lamb", Dies Irae"  and "Jingle Bells".
