New USB Learn to Play Keyboard Pack from eMedia

Aug 26, 2005

eMedia has announced a new USB version of its eMedia Learn to Play Keyboard Pack. This new USB version is more affordable (suggested retail price of $149.95) and makes installation easy - just plug it in and the drivers will automatically install from the included CD-ROM.

Everything needed to learn to play keyboard interactively with your computer as the teacher is included in the box. It's an affordable solution for anyone who has thought about learning piano or keyboard or wants their children to learn but can not afford the high cost of a piano and private lessons. The package includes a MIDI keyboard, the eMedia Piano & Keyboard Method CD-ROM and a USB cable (through which the keyboard is connected and powered). The compact size of the keyboard makes it ideal for use on a computer desk.

The core of the eMedia Learn to Play Keyboard Pack is the eMedia Piano and Keyboard Method CD-ROM. Over 300 step-by-step lessons start from basics such as hand position, rhythm and playing on black keys, and move on to music notation, sight reading, scales and more. Piano teacher Irma Irene Justicia, M.A., who has taught at the renowned Juilliard School of Music, guides you with over 70 video demonstrations of techniques.

Interactive review and ear training screens help reinforce new concepts and develop your ear. With the MIDI keyboard, you will get specific feedback on playing mistakes, including wrong notes and rhythms so that you can play better faster. Other accessories include a built-in digital metronome and one-track recorder.

The new eMedia USB Learn to Play Keyboard Pack will be available at computer and music retail stores nationwide starting in September of 2005 with a suggested retail price of $149.95.
