Here is the first version of my meloboard!!

Its main feature is,

- Compose my own melody, not professional music, easily on Websites
Support several kinds of notes such as a quarter note, eighth note, and tercet.
- You can put your own melody to any type of websites:BLOGs, Forums, Communities, Bulletin Boards, and any HTML/XHTML-based sites.
- You can easily integrate MeloBoard with your existing web applications: phpBB or WordPress or any sources made by PHP, ASP, JSP, etc.
- You can communicate with other people in one melody theme like thread. Once you make a single melody, others can add chorus and orchestrate your melody!

However, Current version of MeloBoard cannot do,

- Draw grids fitting with rhythm.
- Dynamic resizing.
- Support several instruments.
- Playing with Precision Timing.(Little Slow)
- Support above 8 channel sound. (Support only 8 channel sounds)

However, those are also future function. Keep watching it~! If you have any suggestion about MeloBoard, don’t hesitate to say that

Very cool :D

One suggestion though...it does react a little slow. I clicked a bunch of times, and it took a few seconds for it to create a note where I clicked. Even so, for what it's doing, I'd say that's still a pretty fast reaction time but it still makes it a little hard to create notes.

Also, I was unable to save it, when I pressed the save button I got about 4 new tabs in Firefox open up, but I never saw anything get created. Do you need to save it to your computer first? I just opened it directly from the link...

Still, very cool :D

That's right~ It's little slow because I didn't optimize actionscript code yet :)
Keep watching, then I'll fix it soon.

And, where did you push the save button?
So far, you can save your melody only when it's integrated with Community or Bulletinboard. I'm making skin for phpBB, and you can see the alpha version.

Pressed the Save button from the swf file. But even saving it in your forum did nothing :(

Go to http://hirihiri.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=1 then push the "new topic" button. Then you can make a new melody.

But, top navigation menu doesn't work correctly in FireFox, because I used flash as transparent layer which is not compatible with FireFox :( However, I still trying to fix that :)

It's very cool :) I knew another solution named "VLIGHT.CTRL", but it is
external window application, and not a freeware.
