Re: Total Noob Question Here

It certainly can be confusing. But therein lies the methods to their madness. Probably every song you play (maybe that's an exageration...I dont know) will start with your hands in different places. So, with that in mind, I think they are trying to get us accustomed to the fact that we will need to ...

Re: Learning piano without vocal melody

I'm trying to understand the topic discussed here (newbie, of course). I'm realizing more and more that the melody is not played by the instruments, but is sung by the singer. I"m thinking maybewhat they instruments are playing are often chords, but maybe I"m incorrect. I'd say also maybe riffs are ...

Fast tempo=<100%

The timing evaluation that the program exercises, for me, is extremely precise. When I'm playing a fast exercise such as my current one, #51 on Rookie Boot Camp, Girl Crush, hlehivj had a tempo of 156 (or very close to that) and I'm having difficulty hitting every key throughout the exercise. Withou...

Re: Looking for songs

Thanks. I've never been to the seb site version.

On uploading picures, it's been that way for a few weeks. I tried that a while back. Sent message to support, and they contacted me back with a question. Never did resolve it I guess.

Looking for songs

Is it not possible to search for songs in the song store? I can't find a way to search, but I find it hard to believe such a basic thing is not there.

Re: Am I confused?

Yes, that is the correct exercise. I am playing it back w/o accompaniments. What I here is in the first half of the measure is Left hand C for 2 beats, while the right hand E plays for 1 beat in that first half measure. In the second half measure, for 2 beats, the way I interpret it is both C and E ...

Am I confused?

In Rookie Bootcamp, I am working on Lesson 47, exercise # 5. I decided to have the system play it for me, and either I am confused (most likely), or the playback timing is wrong. I haven't had luck bringing pictures into this forum, or I would put one here. But the issue is, it is 4/2 time signature...

Re: Frustrated - Correct Notes with 4%

I've experienced that too. Question for you: Are you on a Keyboard that has features to what you are playing, and have one of those turned on? For example, I had Harmony turned on on my Yamaha once, and played an exercise, and the extra notes that the Yamaha harmony feature added for the harmony wer...
