I adore this because intentional or not it shows you how critical tempo and a bit of legato can be to giving the right piece the right mood. You have one singular job here and the way in which you do it drastically affects your interpretation of Beethoven.
Velocity is also critical, but it’s doing that for you.

#23Not quite sure how to put it into words, but it's absolutely exhilarating hearing your own fingers produce these huge sounds and intense chord progressions. Every time I managed to find the right chord I'd get such a rush. "Oh no he didn't.. he went _there_!?"
This webpage gives a little taste of that feeling. If you enjoyed it, try to give the real thing a go!

#24I like the idea, but there's a delay. It's noticeable enough to be annoying and making it impossible to play out the pieces exactly as I would like to. It just feels like when I get in a rhythm I end up being one tick forward. Or is it just me?
no delay at all for me

ok, no delay on their app, and in there the experience is very satisfying. the web version seems to _feel_ somewhat better when using the touchpad instead of the keyboard, but still not the same.

#27I am sorry if this is not the place to discuss it and will remove my comment if needed, but seeing websites "highly recommending" the use of Chrome seems like bad taste nowadays, especially with what's going on with WEI.

#28I love how tapping an irregular rhythm (eg xx-xx-x-) gives Beethoven a progressive metal vibe.
