Do they make software to wipe your ass, too???
Hey Pianoman1976:
- The ability to control the program via a MIDI keyboard.??
No thank you, I'll just use my fingers to turn the page of the sheet music.
- Note Recognition and Timing (rhythm) can be addressed. A program can adapt the time allowed for a note or chord dynamically in response to how quick the student is.???
No thanks, I have ears for that.
- The difficulty of the sight-reading material may be gradually increased from easy to more difficult. A single new note, rest, duration, accidental, or other element may be added at a time, resulting in a smooth increase of ability????
I can gradually increase the degree of dificulty by sight reading more complex piueces of music!!
- A program can provide instant feedback to the student about his playing, indicating correct and wrong notes and timing. This allows the student to practice more effectively without a teacher.
A teacher can provide instant feedeback AND tell/show the student how to correct a problem!!
-A program can force playing “in time” to a metronome – one of the aspects of sight-reading discipline most frequently neglected
A "metronome" can force playing in time!!
- A program can randomize the musical material presented, to prevent students from “learning” the material by ear, rather than reading it on sight.
A stack of sheet music can randomize the material!!
Hey, I don't mean to be sarcastic but too many people rely on their precious computers to do things people have been doing for hundreds of years. You need your fingers to turn the page of the sheet music, your eyes to read it and your ears to hear it. Just because some geek software developer is making it, doesn't mean you need it.
And while some peoples comments my be irrelevant to you, they are not to me, and we DON'T have to keep them to ourselves!!!
