These installers will Update any MacGAMUT 2003 version to the final 2003 versions listed above!

NOTE:  If you qualify for the UPGRADE to MacGAMUT 2003 (If you registered your MacGAMUT 2000 software on the web and downloaded your unique startup.mgs file), you should  UPGRADE to MacGAMUT 2003. If you need the User UPGRADE If you have been using MacGAMUT 2000 and you have not yet installed MacGAMUT 2003) instead of the Update, click here.

IMPORTANT:  If you did not purchase MacGAMUT 2000 or MacGAMUT 2003, there is no point in downloading and installing these Updates because you need 1) a MacGAMUT 2000 or MacGAMUT 2003 "key" CD, and 2) a registered MacGAMUT startup.mgs or start2003.mgs file to use the 2003 version of MacGAMUT.

Note: The installers on this page do not include the MacGAMUT Music Theory Basics materials or the Managing Your startMG6 File video described below. Because of the size of these additional materials, they are available as separate downloads. Click here to go to the User Disk Extras download page.

MacGAMUT 2003.12a Changes :

• Includes all the latest updates to MacGAMUT 2003 User Disk software both for Windows (including Vista) and for Macintosh OS X.
• Fixes a note-entry range problem in grand-staff Chord drills.
• Windows only:  Fixes an apparent sound check "freeze" problem that required a very few users to press the Enter key instead of clicking OK to continue.
• OS X only:  Fixes a possible disappearing bar line problem in Melodic and Rhythmic Dictation.

MacGAMUT 2003.12 Changes :

• Adds a new way to move notes and accidentals up or down on the staff. You can now click on a single note or accidental, hold the mouse button down, and use the arrow keys on your computer keyboard to move the note or accidental up or down. Release the mouse button to fix the symbol in place.
• Includes the first two units of MacGAMUT Music Theory Basics, covering Intervals and Scales. This sample of an in-progress computerized "book" offers a series of .pdf documents to help you learn the nuts and bolts of music theory. The "pages" of this reference are complete with music notation, sound, and lots of links from page to page to allow you to explore freely. To get the most out of these materials, please download and install the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader if you have not already done so.
• Includes a new How to Manage Your Start File video showing you step-by-step how to get started with MacGAMUT and how to keep track of your start2003.mgs file, the all-important file that stores the complete record of all the work you have done on MacGAMUT.  Note:  The current video title is Managing Your startMG6.mgs File, but if you substitute start 2003.mgs for every mention of startMG6.mgs, the video still tells you everything you need to know about managing your start2003.mgs file!
• More fine-tuning of a variety of note-entry and screen-redrawing features, as well as numerous additional tiny changes most users are not even likely to notice!
