Where did you get the song , pls let me how those but in sons show up
I finally got around to trying this out and it looks like a great learning tool. I didn’t even know my Yamaha keyboard could connect to my Mac but it does using a USB to PRINTER cable I had from an old printer I used to have prior to getting a wireless printer. I actually think I’ll play longer and get much more accurate than I do playing by myself. Also, it says it can take any midi file which is awesome and best yet, it was only $29. SO GLAD YOU SUGGESTED THIS! Even though I’m a total beginner, I find your channel very helpful and interesting! THANKS! Brad.
I am having a problem while playing the lowest and highest note on the keyboard. computer picks up the model tho but NOT the keys played. Do I need to do set it up in other place than music device input?
who’s uncle is this?
This dude is wholesome asf.
to get that free play button you have to get synhesia unlocked?
i mean bought?
i have a song that a youtuber plays and i love his arrangements now can i some how drag that song i download into this software and it will operate normal? or how do i go about doing that? thanks!
Thanks Chuck .. Best Synthesia Tutorial I’ve found … would you know any way of changing the key for a downloaded midi sequence song … as I play in a cover band and many of the live versions of a song are tuned 1/2 step down … as a beginner it will help me a lot
Pretty neat, great video presentation. Can you print off the score notation for each song? I was looking on their song list and was wondering how accurate some of the piano accompaniments were to popular rock and pop stuff. Can you verify the accuracy to say “You’re So Beautiful” by Joe Cocker?
If you buy it, can you download all the songs you want from the internet, or do you have to pay for that too?
I actually bought this last year but only just go around to installing it. Thanks for doing this video. You answered a lot of questions I was having.
Currently on sale for $29.
Great info. Was just looking at it and selected their songs list and only two are free? Rest you have to pay for? Looks perfect, especially the stopping till you hit the right notes. Thanks.
The $29 sale price is well worth it… as a beginning piano student at 60, I need easy tools to learn to read and play. Are you going to offer any of your midi files for people to download and play?
I have yamaha psr e 443 keyboard. It has 61 keys. Would it work with it?
I am buying this program and a key board. Thanks for your in depth review and explanation!
Great review , I agree 100%, Synthesia is a great piece of software for a beginner like myself, I’m having lots of fun with it.. Keep these great videos coming Chuck.. Thanks. Subbed. A+
Cool you should have more than 5,000 subs
very nice explanation, want to know, I have Casio LK 270 keyboard, how can i plat with software? I am a beginner. thank you.
This is a great review. I had seen these Synthesia videos out there on You Tube before ,but never knew what it was all about, 13:09 “how to display notation” answered one of my questions. Other questions-Can you print the notation any way? Also, it seems you can import any midi file? and it can display it- or is that incorrect?
Thanks For this review Chuck!
Thanks for this man. This is a good video.
Excellent, Chuck.
Great resource Chuck, I bought it for my niece, it was and still is on sale for $29.00. Let us know what cool things you saw at NAMM when you get the chance. Be well my friend!
how do i transport song to synthesia?
I’m not really a fan of the falling bars, but thankfully the next incarnation will have musicXML import and multiple lines of notation. Before now the quality of notation was pretty horrible, but they fixed it up.
how to connect keyboard to synthesia? thanks.
