Sound sample:
Denis Doucet –
your books seem interesting, but you really should change sound samples on your website because it sounds so slow that it is impossible to recognize a song and it feels like „childish“ cheap product. Probably your books are good, but your marketing is not going to work in America. It is sad because I would like to buy from you.
Ungeprüfte Bewertung / Info

Hello Denis
Thank you for your interest in our books!
The sounds were deliberately recorded slowly – so everyone can play along with a little practice! Learning and practicing „playing and listening at the same time“ is very important for playing with other musicians, and that’s what the sounds and playalongs are mainly for.
If you want to recognize the melody and the song, just play the sounds faster, this is easy to do in the online audio player.
So – actually, nothing stands in the way of buying our books… 😉
