HD-300 Harmony Director Music Education Tool
The HD-300 is a powerful tool for music educators to more effectively teach intonation and rhythmic training to a musical ensemble.
The New Harmony Director HD-300 combines the HD-200's powerful ear training with dynamic new educational features and a simplified user interface. The addition of a mobile app that can act as a stand-alone tuner as well as a hardware controller makes the new HD-300 a complete package that can not only make a teacher's job easier but also help their students play “IN TUNE, IN TONE, IN TIME and at the CORRECT VOLUME.”
The HD-300 has the ability to help ensembles improve by recording the performance and playing it back for immediate feedback.
The interface for the HD-300 has been greatly simplified from previous versions, making rehearsals easier and more efficient.
The HD-300 comes pre-loaded with 167 musical examples from the Japan Band Clinic Band Method Book (sold separately) so that students can hear chord progressions, rhythmic exercises and more.
The iOS App HD-300 Assistant allows educators to use the HD-300 from anywhere in the classroom and expands its functionality. The HD-300 Assistant also features a standalone tuner.
