eMedia Bass Method v2 - Learn at Home

This is a very effective product for learning how to play. Ive been going thru a few lessons every night and am pleased with my progress. It doesnt feel like work or hard because each lesson slowly builds from the last making it not too frustrating. I was frustrated before I got this and now Im moving along. One really cool feature is the program listens to your playing through a mic and you can tell if you are doing it right because the written music changes color when you get it right.

I love the fact that Im able to take these high quality bass lessons in the comfort of my own home. The software takes you from the very basics to advanced techniques, all with helpful videos and on-screen aids. I think that the emedia Bass Method is what a novice, like me, needs to get a good musical foundation. I have an iMac computer running OSX 10.6, and havent had any issues running the software.

Brings the learning process full circle

not enough

Much better than Bass for dummies

This course is amazing. Im just getting started with bass and have known about it for some time. Features are unbelievable. With perfect accuracy, even tells me when Im off key or off tempo. I can change temp as needed, pause at will, and absolutely go at my own pace. I can repeat the same lessons as needed. Ive had guitar lessons, and being a good musician doesnt make you a good teacher......its a whole different skill set. The instructor kept trying to get me to progress more quickly than my ability allowed. Ive used the old Guitar Method DVD, which is good, but limited in content and features. This course is light years ahead of it. Young or old (Im 72), if you find learning to play a stringed instrument difficult, this course may be your salvation. I cant say enough good things about it......Im not sure Id have tried to learn bass without it. Im getting the Singing Method next.

Waste, not on the book part.

So Far so good. Received package and excited to start relearning the bass guitar! I am sure it is a wonderful product!

Would not work on my 27 imac but did work on my wifes macbook. Tech support was not helpful at all. In fact the response I got was IMHO arrogant and rude. I returned the item more because of the attitude of the support person. They clearly didnt want to help so I sent it back. Not my job to figure out why their app wouldnt launch. From what I saw on my wifes laptop it seems like it could be OK, but not much different than a lot of the free online stuff you can get. Not suer if it;s worth the cost.

The product works great, but my son is impatient (wants to be able to play free bird the first day), so he has already quit using it.
