Fractured Software has released the latest version of its MIDI software for the Mac, Rondo 2.8. The program features a vertical piano roll, which allows people to play along even if they are unable to read traditional sheet music. Improvements to v2.8 include an enhanced interface, help files, and the ability to specify an absolute rate for MIDI playback.

Other features of the program include adjustable tempo, and a loop control that allows a section to be played repeatedly. Rondo 2.8 runs on Mac OS X 10.3 or higher, and is available from Fractured Software for $25, or as a free update for registered users of previous versions.
