Learn how to play classic blues songs from the masters themselves!
Blues Guitar Legends by eMedia is a great CD-ROM-based learning tool for guitar players of
all skill levels. Simplified chord versions of the songs are ideal for beginners, while experienced players can learn note-for-note
from the full transcriptions of both lead and rhythm parts. During the lessons, the animated fretboard shows you the fingerings
in real time, so you don't need to read music. Original recordings and variable-speed MIDI tracks let you learn at the tempo
you choose. Looping lets you select and repeat tricky sections of a song. As an enhanced CD-ROM, the eMedia Blues Guitar
Legends can be played either on an audio CD player or on your computer. Features include Playing Tips: Instructional
material presents the chords and tips needed to master the song and also helps you emulate the tone and technique of the blues
guitar greats. Artist Biographies and Photos: Gain insights into the lives of the legends.
Animated Fretboard: Watch the fretboard come alive with realtime display of notes, including bends, vibrato, and slides. Includes
both right- and left-handed views from both the perspective of looking down at your guitar and across at an instructor's guitar.
Automatic Tuner: Visually tune your electric or acoustic guitar by playing into a computer microphone. Includes custom tunings
for specific songs when needed. The guitar tuner also provides audio reference notes for each string. Metronome: Allows you
to set your own tempo and work on your picking speed, rhythm, and timing. Provides both visual cue and/or audio tick. Full
range of tempi, from largo to presto. Recorder: Record and play yourself back. This feature allows you to compare your recordings
with the originals, fine tune your skills, and store musical ideas.
