Hello! Trying Playground Sessions on a trial and I have found what seems a deal-breaker for me. I have played bass for 36 years and I am pretty comfortable in hearing an accurate pace. Tying in through MIDI on an iPad and the metronome, accompaniment and count-in are absurd. On the count-in, “let’s go” is way out of time to the metronome, and the accompaniment is out of time when changing chords. Which are you intending to be followed? I was going to purchase a lifetime as I love the idea of this program, but at this point I am on lesson two of the Rookie Bootcamp,and consider myself fortunate to save my money!

Hi there,

I can assure you it's not supposed to be that way! There's most likely a problem within the settings on the app. Can you try adjusting the sample rate to 44100? If that doesn't fix the issue please email support@playgroundsessions.com and I'll look into other solutions for you. It could also be a problem with the MIDI set up.

I've had that, the 1234 sounds like a chipmunk and accompaniment is at super speed but the bar that follow the song is regular speed. I kill/cancel the app and it usually fix the problem. Once I had to install the app and reinstall to solve the problem. It happened to me last week.
The only inconvenience in uninstall/install is you have to reload the lessons but you lose no progress. It's annoying but my laptop is big and heavy and inconvenient to use near the keyboard so I put up with the app, for now.
