Can't read music yet? Follow the fingering and play.
Every note comes with a fingering picture, and the note to play lights up in time with the melody. Slow it down, loop the hard bars, and learn one phrase at a time.

How to practice
Play along with the melody
Set the speed to 60% and play together with the melody. Pick the bars that trip you up in Section and loop them.
Play alone with the metronome
Turn the melody off and play with the click only. This is where you learn the notes and rhythm by heart.
Play over the backing
Only the backing plays. Raise the speed to 100% and play from start to finish.
Coming soon: practice with your own sheet music and backing track
