Requirements
The Digital Hymnal
can be best experienced with the following:
Screen Size - This site looks
best at a screen resolution of 800x600.
Sound output - To hear the music, you'll
need speakers, a sound card and a browser that
supports MIDI files. For a better sound quality, you
might use any of the following:
Software
- Browser - This site is optimized for
Netscape Navigator 4, however you can use Navigator 3 or Microsoft Internet Explorer 4. If
you have Internet Explorer 3, you can use it but you have to disable ActiveX. Older browsers may not
support MIDI files, Frames, or JavaScript. If yours doesn't, click here to get Netscape Navigator (free).
If you would like to try an alternative browser, take a look at Opera, it works fine and doesn't
take much space on your hard drive.
- Shareware - Here are some free good programs:

primary objective of MOZART is to print parts for musicians, but MIDI files can be
exported to provide an "aural preview" on multimedia PCs.

MIDI input and output.
