How does the Resounz Keyboard help me?
The Resounz Keyboard is extremely useful to help train your ears to hear and recognize such basic
things as musical intervals (5ths, minor 3rds, etc.) as well as to be able to
hear more subtle differences in pitch (for example, one note very slightly sharper than another). Your intonation will
thus be improved, which is obviously very important to any performance.
The Keyboard also has the ability to record and save sequences of notes, equally
tempered and/or tuned to any pitch (+/- 1/100 of a cent [1
cent=1/100 of a semitone], i.e. +/- 1/10000 [0.0001] of a semitone!), which can
then be played back while you play/sing the same notes to help to improve
your ability to play/sing in tune with other musicians, which is again
obviously very important to any performance.
What can the Resounz Keyboard do?
The Resounz Keyboard can be used to:
- Sound musical notes by means of a simulated piano keyboard
- The notes can by sounded in 128 different timbres (sound colours)
- A sequence of notes can be recorded and/or saved for later playback. Any MIDI file can be played by the Keyboard,
including complex rhythms created when using the Resounz Metronome
- The pitch of the notes sounded can be adjusted by any amount from 0.5 of a
semitone (quartertone) to less than 0.0001 of a semitone (1/10000)
- The volume of the keyboard notes is adjustable
- Many different intervals, chords and scales are preprogrammed into the keyboard for you to use to
improve your recognition of these basic music building blocks
