Re: lag / delay when playing

I did have luck with the "Higher" setting, but like everything with computers "Your Mileage May Vary" really applies. As long as you got to a usable point with the software, that's what matters.

Re: Recording your performance

Hi apavloff! I'm curious which keyboard you have. Yamaha has a Music Downloader tool that lets you move files between your keyboard and your computer. Of course it only works with some of their keyboards. I haven't tried the Recorder function in Playground Sessions, but that really sounds like a gre...

Re: Is sharing audio recordings of yourself practicing Playground sessions lessons (You can sometimes hear 1,2,3,4 ! lol

I was looking through the forums because I thought I'd seen something about this, but I can't find it. This is something that should be in the FAQ - What is appropriate for when we want to show our progress on social media or YouTube? Can we post a recording of us playing to the lesson or do we need...

Re: using another piano sound

I'm guessing that Kontakt is a VST. I think it would be extremely cool if we could use Virtual Studio Technology instruments. The question is how much overhead would that add?

Re: lag / delay when playing

One of the suggestions in another thread was to opening task manager and bump up the priority on the Playground process. They suggested Real-Time priority, but you can probably start with the "Higher" and work your way up. Making it real-time would give Playground Sessions even more priority that mo...

Re: Use the Lightning Connector from Apple with Ipad

I had trouble with the third party lightning connectors too. I ended up with the Apple brand Lightning Camera adapter with power pass-through. That did the trick.

Re: How? Where? Help

For those wondering about a computer mounted on the keyboard stand, my keyboard uses a "furniture" style stand (it's a YPG-635, wood stand with crossbar and the LP-7 3 pedal unit). Ignore the spaghetti mess of wires... WIN_20170206_12_17_10_Pro.jpg That is an Intel NUC BOXD34010WYKH1 It's an older I...

Re: How? Where? Help

That is the challenge for using a computer with your keyboard. I actually have a tiny computer attached to my keyboard stand (really tiny 4.5" x 4.5" by 2" or 114 mm x 114 mm x 51 mm). The monitor is on a large swing arm attached to my computer desk (where my "real" computer is) but swung over the k...

Re: Total Time Spent?

I noticed this too. This is an old post, but I'm known for responding to old things. At first I would play the music through without activating the "play" button, to get a feel for the notes, where the fingers fall, and so on. Then I'd work with the play button and get my scores. After about 10 hour...

Re: Trying out the iPad version

Just wanted to post a quick update. We are going to be submitting an update for iPad next week that includes a new video player. Awesome news. Of all the missing features on the iPad, this is the most important in the near term. I also wanted to say that one of our biggest goals has been to work gr...
