44 Chapter 4 Tutorial 2: Learning to Play Guitar and Piano

Changing the Speed of a Lesson

You can slow down a lesson to make it easier to learn or practice a difficult part of the

lesson. You can slow down the lesson to as much as half the original speed. As you

learn to play the part more easily, you can gradually speed up the lesson to the original

tempo.

To change the speed of a lesson:

1 Drag the Speed slider, located in the control bar next to the metronome, to the left to

slow down the lesson.

2 To speed up the lesson, drag the Speed slider to the right.

You can change the speed of the lesson when the lesson is playing or stopped.

Recording Your Instrument in a Lesson

You can record your instrument in a lesson, including recording multiple takes.

Recording your instrument can help you critique your playing and monitor your

progress. After you record your instrument, you can audition different takes, choose the

take you want to hear with the lesson, and delete unwanted takes.

To record your instrument in a lesson:

1 Click the section you want to record in, or move the playhead to the point where you

want to start recording.

2 Click the Record button.

The metronome gives a one-measure count-in before recording starts at the playhead

position, to help you start playing on the beat. As you record, your recording appears in

a strip above the control bar.

3 Start playing your instrument.

4 When you’re finished recording, click the Play button.
