Since its launch six months ago, the SightRead Sheet Music website has today announced new features to their website. In response to user feedback, they are pleased to announce that they have now simplified the interface to make it easier to find the music you want to buy.

All titles are now sorted alphabetically and there is a new facility to browse for a title by a starting letter. They have also announced that now with the addition of the Hal Leonard catalogue, there are almost 120,000 sheet music titles available for download. They claim also that they have the UK’s largest selection of fully legal, downloadable sheet music online!

If you really want to sink your teeth into something this year and wet your appetite, how about the new PSR-Xstream keyboard that has been announced today. Brimming with technology, the PSR-Xstream requires a water cooled system to cope with the heat generated by the inside components and your frantic playing. With rapid registration configuration system and coming with a digital library of music brooks, the PSR-Xstream will satisfy your thirst for musical performance.

Details are trickling in at the moment, however my sources tell me that the design has been inspired by listening to lots of Justin Timberlake. Complete with a deep ocean blue colouration and audible metronome to help you keep in maritime.

You will be able to view demonstrations of this new design on the other side of the pond, featuring the new memory reservoir for style workload leakage and L.SEA.D screen.

So push the boat out, go for a dip and consider ordering one today when they go on sail for a mere £2.50 before they are all lagoon! (U.eS.tuary.B powered fountains sold separately, does not include any water, cooling or keyboard, manufactured in Bath, but assembled by Paddy)
