eMedia Piano For Dummies v2

Piano for Dummies is great. It is a very good way to learn basic piano playing,the knowledge of the key and actual playing of such.....It has been a great help for me.

Its so easy to follow! I love the fact that it teaches you the actual notes. Ive always wanted to learn the piano/keyboard and never had the money/time for classes. This saved me time and money! I can do it whenever I want to!

Do you remember when the first PC based training was launched using little video clips and audio files? Things have moved on a lot since then with a rich interactive approach being used by many providers. Unfortunately this isnt one of them and this CD (yes just a CD which comes rattling around in a large box - again just like software did in the old days) is definitely of the old school.

Love it!

This is great if you are about 5 years old, its just the emedia version with a piano for dummies badge, I was very disapointed, it looks old and still has bugs.

Tried this product on three different computers, with windows7. Home Premium and Pro, didnt work with either version. Worked with Vista and XP but not with windows7.

I loaded this onto my windows PC and connected an Axiom midi player keyboard via USB. The software loaded quickly and ready to be used. The only problem was there was always a millisecond delay between when I played the note on the keyboard and when the sound actually came out of the speaker. (which can be irritating when you are trying to play to a metronome) I tried the settings but just could not fix it.

This product is easy to understand and makes learning to play the keyboard fun and easy. It is exactly what I need to learn how to play my keyboard.

I really wanted a good refresher course, as I stopped piano practise several years ago, and I dont feel that this product fits the biscuit. Although I must say that this is a perennial problem with beginners courses, as so much is simplistic. A major dilemma has been not having my computer in the same room as my piano, which has somehow defeated the object.
