Ove Player

Ove Player is a small Windows application whose purpose is to help you play OVE and MIDI audio files created using Overture, a professional program that allows musicians to compose songs by performing editing tasks directly on the score.

You are welcomed by a clean layout that gives you the possibility to add files in the working environment using the drag-and-drop support. You may specify the folder that stores the target OVE and MIDI files.

The utility displays information about the audio items, such as name, size, type, and date when the file was last modified, and lets you perform searches.

Ove Player integrates a virtual piano in the main window for helping you check out how the notes are played on the piano.

On the downside, there’s no support for a help manual that could offer you detailed information about the tool’s functions. However, tooltips appear when you hover your mouse cursor over certain parameters and reveal short feature descriptions.

The application lets you view information about the current song, such as tempo and key signature, show or hide the virtual piano in/from the primary panel, close all notes with a single click, turn on or off the pedal, as well as adjust the tempo, transposing parameters and volume.

What’s more, you are allowed to play, pause, or stop the current audio selection, jump to the previous or next song, export the song to MIDI file format, seek for a position in the audio streams, and check out the log which records information about all your actions and possible errors.

All things considered, Ove Player comes with a decent feature pack for helping you play and manipulate Overture’s audio notation files, and can be mastered by all types of users, regardless of their experience level.
