In case itā€™s helpful to anyone, you control the tempo by typing in a new beats per minute value next to the note symbol in the upper left corner.

I stared at this for 3 days wondering why there wasnā€™t a way to slow it down before I saw that. Yes really. It just didnā€™t grab my eyes as an input or control of any kind.

@larynejg Suggestion for the course: please provide a .mp3 of the medley for practice like in BLIM. Itā€™s not convenient for me to use MatchMySound everyday in my practice so the mp3 would be helpful for most days.

This MMS tool would be useful if it wasnā€™t full of glitches.

The metronome in all 3 of these song lessons all have a part or two where it speeds up or slows quite obviously.

My pitch score is higher than 88, and when I play back my recording, the playback shows some random parts where the pitch shifts upward similar to a record or cassette tape speeding up, even though this obviously didnā€™t happen when I recorded myself.

Lastly, so many times after I finish recording I get some score in the 60s or 70s and the notice says I didnā€™t finish the song, even though I did front to back and even let the final notes ring until recording automatically stops.

In fact, this just happened last two times in a row, so Iā€™m done with this tool. Itā€™s too bugged. Iā€™ll just record myself to a metronome app that is actually steady and listen to my own playback to listen for pitch problems.

@JesseLGoulet Did you try using Firefox browser ? I had better luck with Firefox than Google Chrome when recording. Itā€™s weird but my score went from really bad to 90+ with Firefox.

No I donā€™t use any other browser other Safari

If anything doesnā€™t work with Safari, then itā€™s a crap product that I donā€™t bother with. Safari is one of the most used, if not MOST USED, browsers in the world, and if something doesnā€™t work with it, then itā€™s garbage.

Iā€™m using safari, an iPad with a mustang micro amp with headphones.
Iā€™m having difficulty using the platform because when I go to record mode, the backing sound switches to the iPad speaker output, so I canā€™t hear the backing track with my headphones on but canā€™t really hear myself play with them off.

Fender player uses the same platform and it works fine not sure why it wonā€™t work with JG

Hi! Iā€™m sorry if Iā€™m missing something obvious, but I cannot figure out how to use the looper. I would like to learn a few bars at a time. Can anyone please advise?
