PianoBooster(6) PianoBooster(6)
NAME
pianobooster - learn the piano just by playing a game
DESCRIPTION
Piano Booster is piano teaching software that can provide piano lessons for beginners as well as for advanced players. It can be used for
teaching music theory and is useful for piano practice and learning piano technique.
SYNOPSIS
pianobooster [flags] [midifile]
OPTIONS
-d Increase the debug level
-q Quick start
-h, --help
Display a help message
-v Display the version number and exit
USAGE
Piano Booster is a fun way of playing along with a musical accompaniment and at the same time learning the basics of reading musical nota-
tion. The difference between playing along to a CD or a standard midi file is that Piano Booster listens and follows what you are playing
on a midi piano keyboard.
The program has been designed to allow you to play along on a midi piano keyboard with the scrolling notes shown on the screen. The notes
you press on the keyboard appear as coloured lines on the musical stave, the colour of which depends whether you have pressed the right or
wrong note.
A different musical instrument sound is used for your playing depending whether you are playing the right or wrong notes. This feature also
allows Piano Booster to be used with printed sheet music so you can hear if you are playing the right notes while at the same time keeping
your eyes on the printed score. The music accompaniment will automatically wait for you to find and play the correct notes in the piece.
Timing markers show whether you are playing ahead or behind of the beat. They appear as white crosses that are drawn over the note.
FEATURES
- Piano Booster follows you when playing along to a musical accompaniment. If you stop, then so does the music.
- Play a single hand and Piano Booster will play the other hand, as well as the rest of instruments, in time with you.
- Change the speed of playback to match your playing ability.
- Transpose +/- 12 semitones without stopping the play back.
- Change the Key Signature of the piece.
- Plays any standard midi or kar file.
- Play along to any instrument in the midi file.
- Adjust the volume of the current part or the volume your piano part.
- See how accurate you're playing.
- Change the start bar to start playing from any bar in the music. The repeat bars allows you to practice just a few difficult bars contin-
uously.
- Timing markers are white crosses that are drawn over each note and show if you are playing ahead or behind the beat.
- A different instrument sound is used for the right and wrong notes that you play.
