Switch Ensemble
by Switch In Time
Access to music for Windows and Macintosh computers for students with special needs
Imagine using a switch to sing a nursery rhyme, improvise a heavy-metal guitar solo, call a western square dance or belt out a smoky blues!
Imagine a band of students using an IntelliKeys keyboard and a variety of switches to play folk songs, sing Christmas carols, or play in the school band!
Switch Ensemble enables children to actively participate in exciting musical activities using your existing adaptive computer equipment (such as switches or an IntelliKeys USB keyboard) and the powerful music and sound capabilities of your computer. With over 90 songs and activities, your students will sound great the first time they use the program. And best of all, no musical expertise is required!

Input devices
Any input device that works with your computer can be used with Switch Ensemble. Switches and/or an IntelliKeys keyboard are the most common. A multiple switch interface such as the DJ Switch Interface Pro USB or the wireless IntelliSwitch would allow you to connect as many as five switches at a time. Six pre-printed IntelliKeys overlays are included with the program.
