tonica 16 plays piano!
tonica 16 contains functions that improve the playability of compositions for keyboard instruments. For example, chord notes can now be entered and edited as in capella. When composing, tonica optionally converts the composition into a chord representation - the so-called piano score - which is easier to read and play on keyboard instruments.

Evaluation and analysis
tonica fugata can help you with your own works
Evaluating your own compositions is easy: The program has been designed to tell you whether you have added the right notes to the chord in the four-parts, whether you have put the accidentals in the right places and whether you have made forbidden consecutives or other mistakes while composing your chords.
If you want to evaluate one of your practice harmonies, all you have to do is create two windows, one containing your work and the other with the file created by tonica fugata - it couldn't be easier! Forbidden parallels are automatically displayed in the notation. Chord analysis is carried out in the evaluation window.
Your analysis assistant

So if you ever wanted to know just what you or others have created, before you proudly present it to an unsuspecting public, or if you ever wanted to sneak a look at the masters, then tonica fugata's analysis function is the ideal tool for you.
