 Horrible! August 12, 2008
Reuben A. King (San Francisco, CA USA)

This is so shameful that it makes me think there should a federal agency whose mission it is to keep things like this off the market.
First off, it is a "Director" movie, which means /really/ old software technology, which means adding a high degree of boring and uninteresting user interface.
The features in this software are awful. There are none, essentially.
I was really hoping to find something along the lines of Mavis Beacon Typing, with games and such to help me work on chord progression and key scales. There's nothing like this.
And the woman who is featured in the video clips is truly frightening.
Its like this product was explicitly designed to invoke all the ugly memories we have of being forced to take all those boring piano lessons with that grouchy old person when we were kids.
If you want to start making music, don't buy this. Buy the "Complete Idiot's Guide to Music Theory". MUCH better.
Disappointing - Returned It January 19, 2008

The program crashed everytime I tried to play the videos. I upgraded QuickTime per their web site's suggestion and that didn't help either. The program is made for low resolution monitors and while you can switch to full screen mode, it just changes your Windows resolution to a very low setting so it fills up the screen.
I didn't even get to the second screen in the introduction. Maybe you'll have more luck on a Mac, but I wouldn't suggest this program for anyone running on a new Windows based PC.
Wrong CD in the Box TWICE November 12, 2007

I ordered this software, but when it arrived, the box contained the CD for eMedia's Guitar Method. I went through the replacement process, but the second box also contained the same wrong CD. Finally just went to Guitar Center and bought it -- software works well on the Mac.
 Did not meet my expectations! October 13, 2007

From all the reviews and the product descriptions posted, I was disappointed with the product. I bought this to motivate my 7yr old and to suppliment his formal lessons. The multimedia/video button crashes the program every time - the web site lists getting the latest edition of quicktime - not effective. Unlike Music Ace Deluxe the keyboard input is delayed by 1/2 a second - support recommends buying a new sound card with low latency.
Don't recommend this for youngsters, adults can get still get use out of this program by ignoring the lagging keyboard input and not touching the multimedia/video button. I have the guitar version and was very happy with it; the same can't be said for this Emedia product.

Excellent service, and the product worked extremely well.
The only criticism I would have is the cost of Postage. it was ridiculous, the product came in a big parcel, and inside was a dvd.
