How do I Select the Measures I Would Like to Practice?

There are multiple ways to practice a few measures without having to play through the entire piece. One way is to use the Learn mode, or slicings, in the piece. You can find these by clicking on the Learn button on the lower bar. You will see three options, Whole, Chopped, and Minced for many pieces (some pieces do not require all of the slicings, so not all slicings will be available on all pieces). The Whole will include the entire piece, as it sounds. The Chopped slicing will generally include smaller pieces, starting with 8 measures and working through the piece. Minced slicing will have the smallest portions, helping you to learn the piece in 4 measure sections. There will also be multiple tempos available in the slicings, so you can learn the piece more slowly and then increase to full speed.

 You can also click/tap and drag the blue line at the beginning or end of the piece to change what measures are selected. Using the circles with checkmarks on that same line, you can select which part of the grand staff you would like to play, so you can focus on one hand or the other.
