Hello there!
(apologies in advance for not using the correct terms, I am kinda new to this hobby)
I discovered Synthesia a few weeks ago and i'm loving it so far. It's much easier than sheet music to learn popular songs that I always wanted to play (i am going through music theory now though ). Anyway I'm having an issue and figured you guys might help. The tool is really useful if you only want to play with one hand, let's say the right one. The notes that are supposed to played by your left hand are automatically played by synthesia's own synthesizer. The notes i played with my right hand sounded kinda off and echo-y, but by going through tutorials i figured it was my piano and synthesia playing at the same time, so I turned off "my notes" in settings. Surely that fixed it. Now the issue is with the left hand part. The notes (especially the ones next to C3) sound really weird and not even close to the sound that my piano makes. I went to the Hands/colors/instruments menu:
I went through all the instruments but all of them sound off. Is there a way for me to make the application use my piano's notes and not the built-in ones? If not, is there a way for me to select an instrument other than the ones provided in the list? I already have an .SF2 file sitting in my downloads folder.
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
Billy
