pepper we're going to dive into our website and explore a new feature we just debuted called mints
i'm going to show you where to find it how to use it and highlight some of the new features
we just rolled out to help save you time and money shopping for music let's get started
mints is an exclusive feature on the jw pepper website that makes searching for music easy and
accurate mint stands for music insight technology system and really does exactly what it says it
gives amazing insight into the score so you don't have to waste time finding ranges or
instrumentation and can spend more time on actually making music mince provides detailed
information quickly for things like range tessa tura and instrumentation jw pepper continues to
update the tool and recently started adding our large coral library to include immense information
these results will provide the ranges for all voicings in a really easy to see layout
along with any accompanying instrumentation so you can make smarter buying choices fast and
easy currently there are over 14 000 titles with mints information on jwpepper.com and over 5 000
choral titles with more being added all the time making better smarter choices faster will save you
time and money let's jump into the pepper website and i'm going to show you how easy and fast this
tool is to use here we are at jwpepper.com i'm already logged in and ready to search for music
if you don't have a login you will need to create one and you should there's a lot of great benefits
from being a logged in user with jw pepper such as my library and eprint go so you haven't done that
now's the time i'm going to do a search for concert band music in this case i'm going to start
with the title but we'll get to other ways that you can search in a minute right away in our first
search result we see this icon this is the mints icon and any title that has mints information
will have this icon if we hover over it you will see a little pop-up note telling us exactly what
this means clicking the icon takes us straight to the mint's information and immediately we
can see in one simple view the instrumentation and ranges for woodwinds and brass mints even provides
detailed percussion information which is a huge time saver we can see here that it's telling us
which percussion instruments we'll need and it separates out the pitched percussion and shows the
timpani ranges as well this alone is a huge time saver especially if you're not a percussionist
sometimes percussion parts can be tricky and you don't want to waste time or worse money realizing
that you don't have enough parts or worse that you don't even have the instruments for those parts so
now let's do a search for only concert band titles that offer mints information so you can browse
by just that and see how many there are out there going back to the home page hover over departments
band then click concert band select concert and festival then choose concert and contest here
on the left side of the screen in the navigation pane there's an option for mints available and a
number in the parentheses showing all the titles in this particular search which was concert band
and concert and contest clicking the mints available link brings up all those titles
now you have this great tool for over 1800 titles giving you detailed information for
ranges and instrumentation all at a glance and this is accurate information as well it's taking
out any guesswork on your end or frustration you might have from not seeing every little
detail in a particular piece of music mint sees all those details and again this is saving you
time and money so we've been seeing examples of mints with instrumental titles now let's
get a look at some searches for coral music and what mints provides for that
back on the pepper homepage i'm going to start like we did with band with a title search
this first title has a mints icon and if i click it we're immediately shown the mints
information for this voicing we also can see all the other voicings and can check their ranges
we also get instrumental accompaniments listing not only each instrument but still providing their
individual ranges just like it did with the band searches if we go back to the home page we can
also do a general search for only choral titles that has mint's information by going to a specific
department like coral school pepper exclusives editor's choice here on the left navigation pane
we see an option for mints available showing over 1100 titles to choose from clicking this
link brings up that list and we can see all these mints icons here and we're only one click away
