Songs2See

So far I've used this software with Alto Sax and guitar. For basic sight reading and learning proper tone generation on the sax, I'm impressed. For the Guitar, however, the software is more limited. You can certainly use it for learning scales and sight reading, but because there are so many different positions you can play a particular scale at on the neck, and the fact that the software seems to only support one position, it's not as helpful. Still, if you get your fingerings from a book and simply use the software to reinforce basic sight reading, I think it's probably one of the best tools available. For learning pop songs by rote, RockSmith is way more effective (and entertaining), but for actual scales and drills, Songs2See leads the way. Pro: Very simple interface. Con: Very simple interface. There doesn't seem to be any mechanisim for theory instruction beyond drills.

So far it seems that this can be a great tool for learning an instrument. Especially if you have no other reference, like a teacher or someone else that can play with you. The only thing that I would like to mention is that the Flute in the game is actually a Recorder. Would we perhaps see an actual silver flute in the game anytime soon? Asking because I'm a flute player. I did buy the editor too, haven't spend enough time with it though. Would be nice if we could somehow get more songs in the game. But guessing that royalties are always an issue. Great job! Please continue to develop this game! It has lots of potential!

Luego de mucho buscar, gracias a https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOq2C6sn_Ls puedo decir que para agregar música se necesita el editor que cuesta mas caro que el mismo juego, unos 9.500$ CLP(en USD son 13 dolares). PD: el editor diria que es indispensable para ir mejorando, si hubiese sabido esto de antemano quizas ni compraba el juego, tendre que si o si comprar el editor para que me sea de utilidad. Quizas es mejor instalar en el celular songsterr o por buestacks en el pc, es una aplicacion gratis,etc... sobre todo para las personas de habla hispana, porque este tipo de aplicaciones ni siquiera se esfuerzan en nuestro idioma, en cambio estas otras aplicaciones si, saludos cordiales.

im currently learning to play the violin. i just used an electric tuner to make sure my violin was in tune then went to test this game with the bad reviews in mind thinking i would likely be refunding this but i was pleasently supprized. it recognisis the notes perficly and will be lots of fun for me once i get better. i am using a razer headset that has very clear sound i am also wearing it while im playing and had adjusted it so the mic is above one of the f holes on my violin. for me the game works great to those having troubles with it i sugjest investing in a higher quality mic or getting a clipon mic for your respective instrument 5/5 would recommend

The game, in spite of its simplicity, is funny. The low number of available music is the only issue.

This product doesn't really have a niche. Too bare bones/no music library for folks just learning. If you can use the editor well enough to import a guitarpro file, you probably don't need this software, they never completed or got the autotranscribe working. Really dissapointed that it was left as the interesting tech demo that got greenlit. But hey the devs have taken that money and moved onto a new tech demo but now for tablets and mobile phones. Moral of the story: Never buy project greenlight or EA shovelware.

Very neat software that helps with learning the instrument without or with little help from teachers. It works pretty much like karaoke for instruments and provides visual information on fingering for each note as you play the piece. I would highly recommend using this to help develop muscle memory for fingering, learn how to read music sheets and assist with complicated pieces. The game requires additional purchase of their software tool that will allow using any midi, musicxml and other formats to import any music sheet into the game.

I use Songs2See as a tool for my "learning to sing" project. The visual feedback has proven to be invaluable to practice how to sing in tune. Having this has helped me more in 1 month then 2 years of singing classes in my adolescense. Together with the editor this is a very powerful package. The editor allows to import and edit midi files. And maybe even more important you can import songs from mp3 files, the editor will extract the notes from it, it can also be edited. The whole project can than be exported for the game. Some caveats: Only a few of the included songs are useful for vocal training. I don't quite understand why there are not more prepared songs after all this time. Either by community or by the developers. Is it a licensing problem? i would gladly pay a couple bucks for each song. The problem is, that importing a song and "cleaning" it for the game is quite cumbersome. But so far i couldnt find a collection anywhere.

This Game could be one of my best decision to buy yet.
