I love that they have the Bach Partita -- I used to listed to this piece on repeat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuPr9m98XQQ Knowing the melody makes it a lot easier to 'play' in this app.

#44Love it! It could be even more awesome if the velocity of each key press had an impact of the volume, that way we could control two properties at once.

#45I'm not sure I get it. On desktop I just click to play the next beat? On mobile there's no audio (in Safari or Chrome). And the track selection appears to be broken?
Have I missed something? What's the pull here?

#46I 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?
i had that problem also and as a drummer I'm pretty sure I could press the spacebar with above-average steady time. I was using firefox though, maybe that matters.

Not 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 di…
Not sure that was the goal, but the text accompanying the first run makes it seem like I'm supposed to get the rhythm exactly in the spacing indicated on paper/screen.
But one thing I love about the moonlight sonata is exactly how amazing one can play with the spacing of the notes. So yeah, I had a lot of fun with this but I'm not sure it's the best choice of piece. :P

You're right. It is amazing.
