The system may include an interactive portion located adjacent to the text display module. The interactive portion may include a playback module configured to output musical notes upon a first action onto a playback module interaction area. The interactive portion may include a recording module configured to record sounds upon a first action on a recording module interaction area. The interactive area may include a drafting module configured to allow modification of the text upon a first action on the drafting module interaction area. The playback module interaction area may be located adjacent to the recording module interaction area and the drafting module interaction area.

Claims (41)

1. A method for providing a user interface, comprising:

displaying an interactive portion, on a display screen, wherein the interactive portion is configured to play an audio file and generate a recording of ambient sound in response to user input on the interactive portion;

receiving a play command for the audio file on the interactive portion;

after said receiving the play command, displaying a text box, and a user input portion simultaneously on a single device display screen while the audio file plays, and wherein the user input portion is configured to modify text in the text box in response to user input on the user input portion, display of the text box further includes a musical key metric for the audio file; and

saving user input text and the recording with the audio file to a folder within a memory.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the interactive portion further comprises a recording button the method further comprising:

receiving an input activation on the recording button; and

17. A method, comprising:

generating a project folder accessible via communication with a cloud server, the project folder including audio and text data;

associating a first device with the project folder;

displaying, on the first device, a text box, an interactive portion, and a user input portion simultaneously using a single display screen, wherein the interactive portion is configured to play an audio file from the project folder and generate a recording of ambient sound in response to user input on the interactive portion saved to the project folder, and wherein the user input portion is configured to modify text data saved in the project folder and display the text data in the text box;

associating a second device with the project folder;

modifying, by the second device, the text data in the project folder; and

displaying, in the text box display of the first device, modifications to the text data in the project folder.

18. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:

prior to said associating the second device to with the project folder, receiving, an invite for the second device from a first user of the first device; and

accepting the invite by a second user of the second device.

19. The method of claim 17 , wherein text modified by the first device and text modified by the second device is marked for reference in display of the text box.

20. The method of claim 17 , wherein the text box is configured to display suggested replacement words for a selected word in the text box in response to user input on the selected word in the text box.
