[ Product Related Questions & Answers ]

1. Is this product for both musicians and the non-musician?

Yes: Both will benefit and enjoy this product!

2. How useful would this be for learning to play?

Moderate: There's a BIG difference between playing with one mallet/mouse cursor instead of two hands physically holding sticks. In this program you get to see a real picture of the top of the steel pan mapped onto a 3D model). You also hear "true to life" sounds. Therefore you do get some reality to it.

3. Are the notes I'm hearing real?

Yes: All the notes are recorded from real steel pans.

4. How accurate are the notes samples that were recorded?

Pretty Close: Out of the 165 notes from all 6 drums, they would be about 90-95% in tune.

5. Are you able to record at all?

Yes: The CD-ROM does enable the user to record and play back the sequence.

6. Is there a test file I can ensure my system supports your product?

Yes: Download this testfile to make sure you can RUN the Interactive Steel Pan product! The zip file will have to be extracted, then run the .exe, if it opens and plays your in luck. Requirements: PC, w/ sound card, cd-rom drive. If you are having problems with Shockwave, you can download and run this latest installer from this url
