The actual braille scores don't take much time at all to emboss but the process leading up to the embossing can be lengthy. We ewproduce the scores from the music dept then use Dancing Dots to prepare them for the embosser. It can take a few hours or longer depending on the complexity and length of the music score. Hope that helps. Wayne Harvey

Hello,

I teach at the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind. I am so excited to see how you accomodate your students! Wow!

@hawkinman18 sometimes it depends on the length of the piece and the amount of work that your Braillist has on a particular day. But usually I've gotten them any time from three hours after I gave the print score to them, to three or four days after. Let me know if you have any questions. I'll go add you as a friend, too! What is your instrument?

Hello Alex. My name is Rashad Jones, from Columbus, Georgia. I will be taking music classes as a Freshman music student in the Fall. My question for you is: How long does it take for your braille scores to be embossed?
