Hi there, it does work! I've read  several scores, the braille
representation is not formatted correct and it does not show the tempo right
from what I can tell, but their tech support is pleasant to deal with and
the program does what it says it does . This is a first release and pretty
darn good for it. Must be musicxml. Be proactive with your sheet music
purchases tell them you need musicxml some will do it. Can't remember who
but some will or you can get people to put pdf scores into musicxml by going
to Fiver. There are people who can do 2 or 3  pages of one part for 5 bucks
some charge more but you can find people to help. There's also free musicxml
files, and they link to those too. The manual is very readable. I hope this
helps. Noone seemed to know about it but I saw it on a tweet and told them
to contact Blind Bargains and each Tidbits.  There are two youtube videos
just search ibos musicxml reader and you will find them. I'm in a hurry or
would dig them up.
