Cool. Great thing to do when you're bored.

Played it for 308 seconds, completed 55, 100% right. For me it got boring fast, but I can see this'd be a really useful practice tool for some people.

I wish they had a speed controller so you could making things go by faster.

Interesting..

I am pretty good at sight reading but, I can't do this very well. When the notes go by, I know where to play them on the neck, and pretty much how they sound, but I lose time translating that to a note name and typing it on the keyboard.

Practicing though.

Thanks a heap for this one! I'm slow as hell with treble notes :hmm:

I'm pretty good, as long as there aren't crazy amounts of ledger lines.

yup, good at note recognition both treble and bass, suck at the syncopation and etc...

Gets difficult for me when there are triplets over 5 and eights over six etc.....

The rhythmic notation is the diffucult part of reading.
There are some rhythms that repeat themselves over & over...it's nice when you can see them on a page & instantly hear 'em in your head.

Have you guys changed the Scroll Speed?
Totally unusable at 100...unless you happen to be Mr. Data.
