Similar to this I just posted a new suggestion for a voice controlled “restart” function. A feature where you can just say the word “restart” (or something similar) out loud when you want to start playing a song again if you make a mistake. This would be especially useful as a beginner when you don’t wanna lose the position your hands are in on the fret board to click on the restart button.

I’m trying to learn to read the score as music and play the corresponding note on the fretboard.
This feature would take care of what I'm wanting. I could set the notes to be displayed instead of the tab and could figure out where each note was, then play it and it would only progress when I got it correct. Nice way to learn to read music score and the fretboard at the same time.

I came on to this forum to post exactly this idea - but I can see it already has, and has been suggested previously as well!

I totally get where people are coming from when they say music is about timing etc. my violin teacher used to say the same. I am would LOVE to see this as an option though - it would actually help to build muscle memory when your hands have to do what the notes are showing, and over time, the timing would automatically improve.
I don't see why this shouldn't be an option that the user can turn on/off?

With regards to stopping and playback in practice mode, for each note... this will take a lot of time and you'll end up playing with the app more than the piano! The option of only being able to progress when the correct notes have been pressed, will just make things smoother if the learner is struggling.

I just did some searching and found more suggestions for this 'Step-by-step in practice mode' suggestions under 'top requests' with 180 votes... Come on yousician - competitiors are doing it :C

I can see the reasoning against it but I also understand why it can be useful, in particular when you consider that the excercises in the lessons already feature this way of playing to begin with.

Playing the right notes in time is ultimately what it's all about, but when the practice mode is moving while you're still hunting for the right notes and the right order of notes to play, it's easy to miss a large piece of the melody, in particular when it involves intricate parts or hand placements you're not familiar with.

I'd be in favor of this feature as long as it remains user selectable.

Here's another one of this where I put it in more blatant words what I think of the idea: https://yousician.uservoice.com/forums/296820-feature-requests/suggestions/35863915-at-your-own-pace

Music happens in time. The accuracy of playing a certain note means anything only when it happens in the context of the time of the song. This is not practicing accuracy, to be precise.

You can do this by stopping the playback in practice mode and playing the notes one by one. I do this all the time.

I don't oppose, but I don't see myself using this a lot. But you never know, maybe I would. I would couple it with a metronome click so that I could have a goal speed that I could try to match.

Thanks for the tip. I’m gonna switch my subscription to FlowKey as well.

Love this idea, this would be much more effective and engaging than slowing down the tempo to learn a section of a song.

I agree, Yousician knows you stumbled over a section. I would good if the system simple wind back to the previous bar and give a count in to try again, exactly as you can do manually in practice. This should be optional as with the tempo change.

Hey guys, can you please add your votes to the first feature request from 2015 instead? We should avoid to split our voting power for one feature into multiple requests.

I would like to use this stop-waiting-feature in the piano mode! It''s really missing, thats why I'm paying for flowkey until yousician will implement it.

So the song only moves forward if I get the notes correct

Have song progress only if correct note is played, that way if I mess up a key then I don't have to rewind the entire song and find the part I messed up on, and I can correct my mistake then and there.

Could we have a mode to auto-restart the song/section on error for when we are trying to get gold stars? It should be a toggle option obviously and off by default.

It's particularly annoying because I know the program has the ability to do that, in some of the beginning tutorials that's exactly what it did. Not to be mention that type of slow intentional practice is exactly what the research says is the best path to mastery. This one thing is probably going to be be enough for me to quit Yousician entirely.

Yes please! I am pretty slow to learn and get all flustered when it moves on without me. Particularly when I am trying to convince my left hand to move independently to my right.

This is also a feature in flowkey and is very helpful when working out the fingering.

A mode where the song automatically restarts if a single note is not hit. This mode will be tailored to the perfectionists who are aiming to get all gold stars for their songs. This function can be switched on or off.

I thought of this because I get annoyed with having to manually restart the song when I miss a note or make a mistake, and it gets REALLY annoying

I'm trying to use Yousician to teach my 5 year old piano, but the only song he can play is the "tutorial" where the music stops until he plays the correct note. As soon as he gets to the first real song, he can't keep up. It would be very helpful to have the option to use this feature for every song in practice mode so he had more time to learn.
