April 5, 2026 -- We hope community members share feedback, collaborate, tutorials and support materials. These are community generated sw files & links to projects. Software is open for people to develop and may not be fully functional -- software is "as is" experimental, meant for learning, exchanging and teaching purposes only. Collaborate in our Google group (https://groups.google.com/g/isatma). The studio has been open only a short while Some of the code is in Javascript and some software setups aren't optimized for speed but may be helpful for developing user interfaces for developing or coding different software for greater speed and greater music playability.
🖥️ Songboards Getting Started Demo — a hands-free music playground
The round buttons are "targets." Each one plays a note or a whole chord. You drag them anywhere on the screen and lay them out however you like, then roll over one (or click) to play it.
It's built to be used with a head tracker (like FaceNav.org): you move your head to slide the cursor over the targets, so you can make music without using your hands. Flip on Hover mode and just landing on a target plays it — and it keeps sounding the whole time you stay on it, stopping when you move away.
What you can do:
Arrange targets freely — group them however feels natural to reach with head movements.
Build any sound — single notes or full chords, picked on the on-screen keyboard or from the chord menus.
Experiment — switch instruments, add reverb, shift octave, change key.
Save your layout and come back to it.
Mute starts ON so you can set everything up silently, then unmute to perform.

Audio Drivers - ASIO - Many of the setups that we feature that use web pages are very slow and could give the impression that something's not working correctly and something may very well might not be working correctly but we will try to have information and tutorials to Show how to achieve faster speeds for music play.
Adaptive Music Software
· Adaptive Music Dial (webcam, stylus, or alternative input)
· Gesture-based instruments
· Mobile phone instruments
· Browser-based musical interfaces
Digital Audio Workstations
These are incredibly important programs that can host and generate sound while many of the programs that are on this website only use very limited sound options high quality beautiful sounds can be utilized through digital audio workstations such as Ableton Live, Garageband, Bandlab (on the web and open for free) Reaper and many other wonderful programs.
Hands-Free Tools
· Breath switch systems
· Note triggering tools
· Preset selection systems
Hardware and DIY
· Sensor-based input systems
· DIY assistive device kits (limited availability)
· Collaboration with nonprofits and research groups
