Ratings and Reviews
Appli excellente, mais son abord n’est pas immédiat
L’appli est intéressante et complète, mais il faut s’y mettre sérieusement... et être bon en anglais. Après des tentatives frustrantes où je ne comprenais rien, j’ai fini par admettre qu’il faut s’approprier progressivement l’application, et surtout y passer du temps à chaque fois. Les tutoriels sont corrects (connaître le vocabulaire musical anglophone est indispensable), mais il faut pratiquer et surtout être patient... Le développeur m’a proposé son aide (merci !), mais je vais continuer mon apprentissage sans brûler les étapes. J’ai imprimé les tutos d’ailleurs... c’est plus pratique. Je ne suis pas au bout.
Developer Response ,
Nouvelle version de l'application(10.53): Le menu Support a une fonction "Export help documentation" et il exportera des documents supplémentaires sous forme de fichiers PDF. Pourrait être utile à des fins de traduction, par ex. copiez et collez le texte dans un traducteur.
Génial
Cette petite application est vraiment fantastique ! Merci pour toutes ces mises à jour
Excelent!
I like very much this app. It has helped me to develop the rythm, and a stability on the measures, and it has a real impact when playing my instrument.
The interface can be sometimes confusing, but in the end, once you enter in the exercises, is a matter of reading the measures and hear the metronome.
The charts and the deviation at the end is quite interesting to see the improvement on the stability, but I did not find how to keep the track on the progress through time to see the evolution. Could a profile or a track on the results of the exercises be recorded in the app?
Anyway, thank you for developing this app!
