Re: Can soemone help me figure out how to play this note?

I think the 5 is meant for the E. Just quickly play the D with 4, then E with 5, then D with 4.

Re: Better enforcement of rests

Years . That is not great news I must say. I really question the wisdom of bringing a fourth platform on-line while paying users of your three existing platforms are still waiting for (sometimes very old) issues to be resolved. Some of the circumstances causing the latter are beyond anyone's contro...

Re: Wait for right note learning mode

I may have already chipped in at one of the other threads about this but if not: I fully second the request and think it would be extremely useful in figuring out a more complex song in the very first stages of looking at it.

Re: Simple, cheap and effective mounting solution for laptop on Yamaha P-115

Thanks. I further improved on it so I'm my humble opinion it's now better than anything you could buy in stores 8-) it now combines the music stand and laptop stand into one.

I'll take some pictures and write a quick instruction when I find the time.

Re: Timing and Rhythm

Hi Andrew, please realise that a user who prefers the sound of their piano to the (very mediocre) piano sounds built into PGS has to go that route /every time/ they want to use the piano demo feature, and /every time/ they want to switch it off again. This gets old very quickly. You commented elsewh...

Re: Cant seem to get around the speed issues

Only if you regard "accuracy" as a proportion of note duration. But that isn't how the human body works. Your reaction times and accuracy are fixed for your current level of skill - you don't magically get more accurate just because the song is a faster tempo than the previous one. No, but typicall...

E-mail notifications stopped

Hi Andrew or colleague,

It seems the e-mail notification for new posts and threads stopped. Any chance you could turn this back on?

Last notif was received April 18th.

Thanks,

Re: Sort by artist in song store isn't working

I'm not sure when the search feature will be added. The best fix for now is to use your browser's search function: Ctrl+F on a Windows and Command+F on a Mac while in the song store. Make sure you have all genres and all difficulty levels selected. It may not be 100% clear from Andrew's answer, but...

Re: Cant seem to get around the speed issues

I am still not 100% happy with the timing of the scrolling cursor but it's inherent in using "normal" music notation for a method like this (the programmer has to choose to either enter the measure at the exact correct moment, OR pass the first note / rest in the measure at the exact correct moment....

Re: have you used Hanon exercises?

Yes, they are great exercises BUT for me motivation is a real problem with these... I think it helps to have a paper book available, they are really not expensive and it is a nice change from your computer display. If you search the forums for hanon there should be another discussion on this where I...
