Abstract

Interactive system for building and sharing one'"'"'s own databank of the text and other related information of musical compositions in one or more languages, it being accepted that one may want to build such data based on one'"'"'s personal interest that uses a computer system.

Claims

1-15. -15. (canceled)

16. An interactive system for building and sharing one'"'"'s own databank of atext and other related information of musical compositions, in one or more languages, using a computer system comprising:

(a) a User Interface;

(b) one or more well-classified databases to store data user wise including a User Database;

(c) at least one well-classified data input organizing and management module;

(d) modules for sharing, invoking, storing, and improving one'"'"'s knowledge of the text and other related information of musical compositions including songs, hymns, ghazals, using the data from the databank, said data having been selected by a user by finding the same by none or one or more “

FIND”

conditions; and

(e) a control system acting as a bridge between the User Interface and the databases.

17. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Music Session Module allowing the user to invoke and store a music session for improving one'"'"'s knowledge of the text and other related information of musical compositions including songs, hymns, ghazals, using the data from the databank, such data having been selected by the user by finding the same by none or one or more “

FIND”

conditions.

18. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Music Scheduler Module for allowing the user to schedule the data comprising of the text and other related information of musical compositions including songs, hymns, ghazals, by finding the same from the databank by none or one or more “

FIND”

conditions and said songs, hymns, ghazals are brought up on the user'"'"'s computer system at preset time intervals.

19. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include an Export Module for allowing the users to export data from the databank, said data having been selected by one or more users by finding the same by none or one or more “

FIND”

conditions.

20. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include an Import Module for allowing one or more users to import data built by other user(s).

21. The system according to claim 20 wherein the Import Module further includes a utility for selectively importing the data.

22. The system according to claim 16 wherein said data input organizing and management module allows the user to classify the data by well-defined classifications like Date, Type of Record, Age group, Language, Genre, Category, Title, First Letter/Syllable/Word, Singer(s)/Band(s), Film/Album, Lyricist(s), Music Director(s)/Composer(s), Year of Release, Picturised on, Scene Description, Award(s), Main Instrument(s).

23. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Global Attachment Module for allowing the user to attach image, animation, or sound files to a record.

24. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Global Association Module for allowing the user to associate files, URLs, or remarks to a record.

25. The system according to claim 16 wherein said data input organizing and management module further includes a utility for copying of existing classification and previously entered data for new data input by the user for ease of data entry.

26. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Global Modification Module for allowing the user to modify a record individually and globally.

27. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Global Delete Module for allowing the user to delete a record individually and globally.

28. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Recycle Bin Module for allowing the user to restore or permanently remove a record individually or plurally from the system.

29. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Reports Module for allowing a user to print reports and/or graphs about the data in the databank, by finding the same by none or one or more “

FIND”

conditions.

30. The system according to claim 16 wherein the “

FIND”

conditions are defined by classifications like the Date, Record ID, Language, Type of Record, Age group, Genre, Category, Title, First Letter/Syllable/Word, Singer(s)/Band(s), Film/Album, Lyricist(s), Music Director(s)/Composer(s), Year of Release, Picturised on, Scene Description, Award(s), Main Instrument(s), as well as by keywords, wildcards, rile attachments or bookmark remarks, including “

Set for Practice”

or “

Mastered”

, “

Public”

or “

Private”

or “

Favourite”

31. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Global Bookmark/Unbookmark Module for allowing the user to bookmark or unbookmark the records individually or globally with bookmark remarks including “

Set for Practice”

or “

Mastered”

, “

Public”

or “

Private”

, or “

Favourite”

.

32. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Translation Module as well as a Global Translation Module for allowing translation of a record from one language into another of the user'"'"'s choice, individually or globally.

33. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Tools/Help Menu Options Module for allowing the user to select an option for customization including system maintenance and updating of database.

34. The system according to claim 16 wherein the modules include a Master Module for allowing the user to create and store masters for well-defined classifications.
