Quick-Start

The default settings let you practice the lower octave of a standard Shakuhachi. Adjust these controls to suit your needs and skills.

Read the Tablature columns from top to bottom, right to left. By default, the current note is circled in red.

(This "visible play-head" may be hidden from the Main Menu)

Use these sliders to customize the automatically generated practice "music".

* Choose your range

* Choose the potential step-size between notes

* Choose the potential durations of the notes

Three sliders adjust the playback's tempo, and volume for both notes and metronome.

Un/set a count-in for your current measure when paused.

Un/hide the metronome by clicking on it

ProTip: Reduce note volume to 0 and practice with metronome alone!

* Play/Pause playback
     <spacebar> also does this

* Reset/Regenerate the tablature

* Go to the Main Menu
