You have to separate the notes by spaces, so an input like

{g8 b a g d g a g g}

will work. I hope you have read the Tutorial in the mean time.

Do I need to do to add version "28.8", whatever that is? Will that allow me to start using the program, and seeing some success? It's confounding me so far.

Thanks,
