LC3+ Music Lab Discontinued
LC3+ Music Lab
An Affordable Modular System for Educational Musical Instrument Labs
The LC3+ Music Lab offers music educators an intuitive, flexible way to teach a group of students all at once, one-on-one, or split into smaller groups all without ever leaving their own instrument. The basic LC3+ BASE comes with everything an 8-student lab needs to be added to virtually any set of electronic instruments with an audio or headphone output.
Lab-Based Music Education
The LC3+ Music Lab system effectively allows an instructor ubiquitous control over classes expandable to as many as 48 students. Using a system of headphones/mics, it's as if each student is isolated in their own virtual practice room, ideal for private practice or one-on-one instruction with a teacher. But with the touch of a button the practice room walls are instantly removed for group study, teacher-only broadcasts, or "all-together-now" ensemble performances Instructors even have a powerful MUTE button disabling the students' instruments when it's time to pay attention. Exclusive features like the heavy duty Yamaha CM500 headset-microphones and the Mega Group quick configuration button set the LC3+ apart from its contemporaries.

FINALE NOTEPAD
- The gold standard in music notation software. When connected to a USB or MIDI keyboard, a music instructor can play notes into Finale Notepad as a visual aid, or Finale Notepad can play notes directly to the keyboard as an aural example. A Mac or PC can connect to a large class monitor or projector to have music seen and heard by the entire class.
STANDARD PIANO REPERTOIRE
- The Finale Notepad files are well-known piano classics. Simply open the desired file in Finale Notepad and press PLAY (spacebar) to start and stop playback of the piece. Students can follow the cursor, watch the notes and listen to Finale Notepad play the instructor's connected USB or MIDI keyboard as an aural and visual example of what certain pieces are supposed to sound like.
