    • Timing between count-in and start of tune inconsistent
    o Select a new section
    o Press play & allow the tune to begin playing for a few seconds. Press stop.
    o Wait for at least 38 seconds
    o Press Play
    o Count in begins. After the word go, the tune starts at least a half beat sooner then it should. If you start after 15 seconds or so, it begins correctly.
    o Note: I have the audio output of my PC playing through my keyboard. Excessive static begins at about the 38…

  2. Allow the piano keyboard shortcut "D" to move to the next main lesson/topic in the bootcamp. Right now, it only works within the same lesson to move you to the next segment/sub-lesson.

  3. Looking for more control over volumes. The count in and especially the metronome. On previous version you could control the volume in this version it is either on or off. In my opinion when it is on, it is too loud. I am using windows 10 on a x360 HP laptop.

  4. I recognized that I have become somewhat dependent on the visual cue of the cursor. It would be nice to have to option to disable the cursor in the settings in order to get used to play without this visual cue.

  5. When the app plays the piano automatically (both hands), it does not play it in a swing rhythm in sheets that are notated to be played in swing. This is also a problem in the old app.

  6. Just like on the PGS Legacy App, you can review or get a file copy of your learned piano lessons or full songs by turning on the "record" button in order to store them in laptops, or even mobile devices. Because, as of now, I could not find a "record" button on the PGS Version 3.0. Thank you very much PGS Team!

  7. Windows 10 os version 19044.1586

    I run my audio via a Focusrite 2i2 interface. The new app has a sound delay that wasn't there previously. I can turn the volume back up on my piano and the studio monitors off and all is fine, but it would be good to get a fix for this.

  8. Have installed the windows beta on surface pro 8.1 and the dashboard blends in well here.
    Have also installed it in windows 10 laptop and here the iOS like dashboard seems a bit out of place as the Mac users have noted before.
    We are also missing the song store and the record button which were originally available in the windows version; are we going to get it back?
    It works better on the surface pro as I can hit the screen to start and stop button which works; on laptop windows 10 I have to use the mouse.
    Looping…

  9. In the new app, more bars are displayed horizontally, which reduces the need for more vertical scrolling but this makes the display more cramped and harder to read for a novice like myself. For example, in the previous app where 4 bars were show, now 8 bars are squeezed into the same space.

    It would be great if you could control the number of bars shown horizontally.

  11. The note detection seems to be too sensitive. Playing FurElise in the new Rookie songs in production version i got a 100% score, but in the beta version my scores were between 40% and 60%. Something is off here. Running on a Yoga Pro 2.

  12. Fur Elise Intermediate Hard lessons, Section 6 RH. 10th measure, there is an errant B note that shouldn't be there and counts as a wrong note when scoring. The B shows up once "play" is hit.

  13. While new proportional measure width looks great for displaying music, it causes the playback cursor to speed up on wide measures and slow down for narrow measures. While I try to rely on the metronome and backing track for timing, seeing the cursor suddenly speed up gives an unintended visual cue that the tempo has changed.

    • Playing time is incorrect in dashboard. Specifically noted that it shows 0 for songs with the last 7 days filter after I was working on songs.
    • Stars earned toward next free song credit are incorrect. Count differs from current playground app

  16.  Set Piano volume level to zero
     Use application normally to practice.
     Decide you need to hear what it is supposed to sound like. Using hands control, enable left, right, or both hands.
     Press ‘Play’
     No piano sounds are played. Expected piano sounds to play.

     To make this work I must turn on the ‘hands’ control AND then also open settings to set a volume level for the piano sound. My expectation was that selecting that I want to hear the app play the piece using the ‘hands’ control, should automatically set the volume level…

  18. Metronome does not have same resolution as in production version. The metronome only increments or decrements by 5 with each + or - press. There is no ability to enter the exact speed you want. The units is selected by the preset version.

  19. Controls for setting the sensitivity of feedback are missing. In current ship these are located under 'Advanced Settings' -> Feedback Evaluation. I'm hoping these just haven't been added in yet and that their absence is not a design choice. These settings are critical to making the app more enjoyable and the learning experience more satisfying.
