Synthesia uses a note highway like Rock Band. You'd just need a MIDI keyboard (RB3 keytar counts) and the means to hook it up to a computer/tablet/phone. But this reply is 9 years late and you've either stopped caring or went on to become an expert pianist by now. My personal headcanon is that your frustration with RB3's lack of left-hand notes inspired you to-plot twist-create Synthesia.
It's great they have this pro keys option since they're presented with an actual instrument to work with. I just wish they would've also included a musical notation option that gave an actual staff with notes on it to play. That would be a God-send for people who can read music :D
pro keys - you play with all 25 keys (2 octaves) like on real keyboard (also you play exact notes exactly so you can read chart and play it on real keyboard and you will actually play the song)
@FUGGNUTZ You can actually use overdrive. There is a button on the MIDI adapter that activates Overdrive. And yes, its right, you can use almost any midi compatible keyboard with mad catz's Midi Pro adapter, but you will still play in a 2 octave range. Nice thing about it is that you can play your normal key sounds simultanously und turn the keyboard playback off via in-game menu. what you play in the wrong octave in some cases, but you can hear that the notes are right.
@CopperheadViper It's cause you're supposed to use your left hand for activation overdrive and whammying. Even then, the keyboard only has 2 octaves...
@Shredder5190 funny but I was trying to GS Free Bird on Pro Keys today and I scored around 750k and 1st place is currently 797k I guess... so it just takes a time and I will for sure GS it :)
how long is the keytar in inches. and how far can you spread your fingers. i can spread mine just over 8 inches and im only 13. it might get longer as i get older. im only asking because i saw the last keytar tutorial or whatever they call them on RB3
Yo I just got this game like yesterday, and was wandering about using one hand (cuz I've been learning the instrument in rb3) and was wandering if anybody could give me tips or pointers on how to play with the right hand so fluently? Also I have troubles with the 4 and 3 note chords and was wandering wat I could do to practice that and get it down faster?
Wow awesome!! :D I almost missed out on those splitscreen videos, haven't been on youtube in too long! :S You're motivating me to start playing again... (just had a baby a couple weeks ago XD) I can't wait :) Great job with the editing too!
Damn...I'm just getting decent on Medium...any Pointers? What I've been doing is doing the easy tutorial, completely easy goals then the Medium tutorial and so on...But I've noticed that your fingers move differently than the gave suggests. As it tells me to reach beneath the sharp black note with my thumb sometimes.
Is it just me who thinks it's hopeless having this, yes fair enough it sounds really F-ing awesome, and good song by the way lol. But with Bohemian Rhapsody you need a bigger keyboard, and not this... although you are incredible well done :)
Did you already know how to play actual keyboard before you played this game? If so how realistic is it considering it looks like you don't even have to use your left hand to play the keys?
Yes I did. I am playing in real hard rock band as an organist and keyboardist. Left hand is not charted in RB3 that's right but since in RB3 you have to play every note precisely just as it been recorded in studio and also because of RB3 engine it's a lot more harder to play the song accurately in RB3 than on real keyboard.
I've found that playing these games has improved my form and accuracy, unlocking my pinky on bass and guitar, and it looks like getting up to pro in keyboard might help my keyboard playing in some of those way as well. I've been in bands for a lot of my life and will continue to be, but this game is probably the easiest way to share what I enjoy with non musicans and stay fresh while having fun. Don't give up on it +LuisBonillas it's a great game.
I'm not sure what just happened, but my first guess would be you made sweet love to that keyboard. I've been trying to play keyboard for the past week or so. I'm on medium and I'm DEFINITELY not playing the way you are with one hand and your thumbs which I'm assuming is the right way to play anyway. My progress is good so far, which is good because I'm tired of living in my brothers shadow on Bass. He won't touch the thing so now's my chance to shine.
@EasyExpertVillage you are supposed to use only right hand, tracks are right on piano I can say (only octaves can differ cause we hvae only 2 octaves keyboard)... for me its easier with 1 hand but it depends on an actual player some people find it easier with 2 hands... well you have many videos of the game here on my channel and anywhere else on youtube... if you are into music games then RB3 is probably the best music game :)
i really love gh:wor and its fun to play it, but here's RB so much better. In GH you play the piano with guitar and bass and in RB you can play the real piano notes.
Hmm, kto by to povedal, 100% FC Expert veci by som od Slovákov nečakal, presvedčil si ma o opaku, good job chlape. Ak sa môžem spýtať, za koľko si zohnal tie klávesy?
hej a veď ja som tvoje videa tiež už dlho komentoval :D, a inač matush15 ak máš reálny Keyboard tak radšej kúp Pro Adapter od MadCatz, síce u nás nie je ale ja som ho kúpil z Amazonu za nejak 40 eur a je to pecka, nj a konečne som s tebou minuly piatok hral ROckerSVK :D
thinkin of gettin this game for my girl cuz she wants to learn the keys on a fun easy platform cuz she tried years ago and gave up. anyways does anyone know a good keyboard to get that will be usable on this game? (i've heard you can use keys other than the RB3 ones with the game) sorry im like mega noob on this game please help fellas
Don't bother, If anyone wants to learn how to play a keyboard, it is not this game. The keys for this game have only 2 octaves, while real keyboards have 7. It takes a lot of explaining to tell you the differences, but if your girl wants to learn how to play piano, Don't bother trying to teach her using the FAKE keyboard.
real piano? nah, let's play a toy piano for a game that looks real, but you hear something that's not from the piano and it's only like... 2 octaves long. yeeeeea
is just for fun. Videogames are not here to replace real life. As an example you don't have to be a real assasin to play Hitman or Assasin's Creed or an expert driver to play Gran Turismo. I find music / rythm games harmless, addictive and fun.
@@LaEsquinadelOcio it just sarcasm but i'm just saying, that looks like a real piano but instead of playing a piano he plays a game and if you know how to play you can use a piano instead but well, im not against simulation games, i like them
hram profesionalne, som klavesakom v realnej kapele, no ale i tak musis sa naucit citat "noty" ako ti ich ukazuje hra, to ale sa vrylo do pamati neustalym hranim :)
They should make pro+ keys where you also use the left hand ^^ that would be awesome to learn how to play piano in the form of a game :)
You can use both hands on this you know?

Anyway, they mean charting the bass clef. They do not do that for RB3 Pro Keys.

+Jackie Morfin my first thought when watching this
The world is unbalanced without Eddie Mercury. Always in my thoughts and prayers.
@huonghua112 I had to change a pitch of audio track half a semitone up otherwise the video will be blocked in some countries. Sorry for that.
@Grinders94 chart is made for one hand only so it should be done that way :)
@carlosroberto366 yeah 11 years of piano experience and I am also keyboardist in a real life music band :)
@CityRuler1 yes if also left hand was charted I will use also left hand... but since only right hand is charted I used only right hand
Niiiice fc
A slight pitch raise bothers me a little bit with the video, other than that, impressive.

@Shredder5190 I guess so :) I FCd it so many times already :P
@CopperheadViper It's cause you're supposed to use your left hand for activation overdrive and whammying. Even then, the keyboard only has 2 octaves...
Damn its the actual chords for the song
@Shredder5190 funny but I was trying to GS Free Bird on Pro Keys today and I scored around 750k and 1st place is currently 797k I guess... so it just takes a time and I will for sure GS it :)
This game made me despise playing the keyboard. I will never touch my keyboard ever again. Congratulations.
Nice bro!
yes you can even see on the end score screen where it says its expert
Mind if I use this footage for a video I'm making about pianos in video games?
The only reason i want Rock Band 3
how long is the keytar in inches. and how far can you spread your fingers. i can spread mine just over 8 inches and im only 13. it might get longer as i get older. im only asking because i saw the last keytar tutorial or whatever they call them on RB3
For some reason I like music when it's higher pitch

yea but where can you get the pro keys and guitar game stop doesn't sell them
It had to be raised a few semitones to avoid copyright
Your internal metronome is excellent dude.
I have one of these controllers for the wii and i dont want it. What should I do with it?
Sell it

:D I never saw somebody with splitscreen like this, but I like it
you should make Splitscreen video of Llama
@JeremysaysHAHAHA yeah perfect for me as a real keyboardist/pianist :D
What's the difference between keys and pro keys? :)
With one hand. Mis respetos

holy shit
sadly only the right hand and not that accurate too
UGH The transposition is driving me crazy.... damn copyright thingy.
okay internet, all together now.
This sounds like it's pitch shifted up a few semitones from the one in my game.
Your kidding!! thats ridiculous! i just ordered mine.. never played the piano before so im curious as to how this will go!
When you try to play along but the vid is slightly off pitch to avoid copyright strike
Hey..!!
You play amazing..!!
More videos like this... =D
hrali sme? ze o tom ani neviem aky mas Gamertag? :)
@EasyExpertVillage You should be able to spread to at least an octave. You'll never need more.
you're amazing but where is antibodies? where is sweet home alabama dude, we are all expecting those from you !!!
piano man!!
higher pitch to avoid copyright.
Ešte jedna otázočka, hráš na klávesách aj profesionálne, a ak nie, koľko ti trvalo sa naučit na nich hrať v Rockband 3?
