Comments about Roland Drum Tutorial Software for HD-1:
Using this for couple of weeks now.
I like the notation layout much more than the "game" layout.
Biggest issue - not resizable window, which makes it tiny on most contenmorary notebooks with hi-res screens.

Comments about Roland Drum Tutorial Software for HD-1:
I am not a drummer, but this software is helping me to learn some basic beats & concepts. It came with the HD-1 package. It is easy to use, but there are no controls, such as volume or drum sound controls. I think the idea is great. However, the user interface needs improvement including adding more controls. A VST version might e interesting too. I also think that the software should provide more feedback including ways to review your studies & progress. Also, there should be a community of HD-1 users that can solve challenges etc...

The software loaded right up! It took 5 minutes and I was drumming away with the tutor. It comes with the cords you need to hook up to the computer so unpack it and your off. Easy to use interface. I would recommend this product.

Even though I would prefer it if it were black, the carpet is a must for those with wooden floors, such as me!
Perfect!
