Synthesia

[Captain Ashton]

So, I was browsing youtube when I came across some videos made by this program called Synthesia. From what I've seen it appears to be a keyboard version of Guitar hero, but also with the feature of creating your own music (or keyboard versions of songs). I assume that you connect your laptop/computer to your keyboard (somehow) then play the selected piece just as you would if you were playing guitar hero; except you use an actual keyboard instrument than a toy. Heres some examples of what it is:

Note the 'score' at the bottom left of the page, this is what makes me think it may like guitar hero. These I would asume are just playbacks.

Also I say keyboard and not piano because just like on a keyboard, it uses different sounds. (althoguht I knwo that is kinda obvious).

I'm guessing that It has the feature to create your own music because the first song clearly cannot be played by any human being so I am guessing that someone used this program to create it, and have actualy not played it themselves.

Anyway I Just thought that some of you musicians and music fans might be interested in this.
