Have fun learning how to play online without spending the money on a giant baby grand.
Do you wish to learn piano without spending the money on buying one? Below are some of the best musical software to help you learn piano while having fun. You are only required to make use of your computer’s keyboard and mouse to play these musical instruments without bothering the knowledge of notes, chords, and other musical scores.
EtudiX Tutor is piano software released by AcustiX Company to teach the beginner who has problems learning musical scores in a traditional way. People who do not have a full knowledge of notes, bars, and measures can now learn to play piano on the provided keyboard with ease. It is extremely marvelous to use this software as you can sing along with the tempo and the main melody of the piece. Even though EtudiX Tutor does not show you the tempo or accents of each piece, you are guided visually to where you should place your fingers correctly on the keyboard. To learn more piano lessons using this software, you should download midi files that you can find them easily via Internet. I assure you that you will be satisfied to use this software as I have used it for a couple of weeks and I found it is a very useful program to help me to learn piano.
Once it is downloaded, run the setup.exe file, and follow the instructions to begin using it.
Click Musical Keys is good piano software that is available to download for free. It is a midi format musical keyboard program developed by Bapuli Online Company. This program can produce 128 different instrument sounds. It looks like a real piano. You do not have to know the classical theory of music like notes, bars and musical scores to play around with it. You just need to make use of the computer keyboard and mouse to play it.
Once it is downloaded, run the setup.exe file, and follow the instructions to begin using it.
Follow Me is musical software developed by One Man Band. This software shows no notes on the screen but it will guide you on how to put your fingers on a recorder (melody), guitar (chords) or on a keyboard (melody and chords), so that you press on the correct notes. The unique feature of this software is that you can select a metronome or drums to keep your tempo. For those who wish to use the keyboard, they should choose the metronome option and turn off the drums so that the song can be heard easily. This is essential in helping to keep the rhythm of the melody. This program is particularly useful for those who want to seriously learn how to play aninstrument as it provides you step-to-step guidance. However, I found it is not suitable for advance level musicians who wish to learn the instrument more thoroughly.
Once it is downloaded, run the setup.exe file, and follow the instructions to begin using it.
iDreamPiano is a virtual piano program which is approximately 0.7 MB. You feel like you’re playing a real piano when you press your fingers on the PC keyboard or Notebook keyboard. This software comes with an excellent sound on any soundcard (including On-board-soundcard), and very low latency on any soundcard (including on-board-soundcard). This software supports recording, transpose, octave-shift and playback. It also comes with a helpful document and some demo songs.
Once it is downloaded, run the setup.exe file, and follow the instructions to begin using it.
