This encourages a flexible and creative approach to learning by posing alternative musical scenarios to the learner.


Another useful tool is the Arrange slider. This features the ability to adjust both the song's difficulty and tone, providing a tailored learning experience that best suits your skill level and music preferences. The Modify tool gives you control over your learning, making it a more personalized and effective process.


If you're an auditory learner, the 'Hide notes' slider is an invaluable tool. By hiding individual notes, you're forced to use your ear to figure out the tune, improving your ear training skills and enhancing your musical intuition and memory. This method particularly favors those who learn better by listening rather than relying purely on sheet music.


In general, practice slowly and incrementally to better comprehend and master the tune. Utilize features like the Metronome tool to maintain a consistent tempo during practice. Breaking down the song into smaller sections and mastering them one by one can also help make the learning process manageable and less overwhelming.
