Rocket Piano - What Makes It Different?

Rocket Piano

Product Overview

Rocket Piano is a collection of books, games, software, and audio and video files that you can download for a fee or physically purchase through the postal mail. It is simple, easy to install, and the software is available for the Windows operating system.

The books offer an extensive crash course in piano playing, covering virtually everything you need to know to take you from beginning level to advanced play.

Topics include:

  • Getting started with the piano
  • Finger techniques
  • Exercises
  • Lessons
  • Reading music

Versions

There is no difference in content between the electronic version and the physical version. When you choose to download, you receive the eBooks and audio, video, and software files. When you purchase the system through the mail, you receive bound books and CDs.

Product Purpose and Claims

Learning how to play the piano requires a variety of separate courses, including music reading, finger techniques, and playing by ear. Getting these lessons from a music school or private instructor is often very expensive.

Piano teaching software is available at a much lower price and allows you to learn at your own pace and on your own schedule.

Although there is a lot of piano teaching software available, Rocket Piano is different in that it aims to be a complete, self-contained course, taking you from beginning level play to advanced play.

This product certainly lives up to its claim of being the most comprehensive system available for learning the piano on your own, while still being simple and intuitive to use.

Features

The system comes with:

  • 3 books
  • 126 sound files
  • 13 video lessons
  • 4 software games
  • Bonus software and articles

Suitable For

Rocket Piano is suitable for children and adults; beginner to advanced.

Guarantee

The system comes with a two month (60 day), "no questions asked" guarantee.

To receive a refund, all you need to do is send an email with your receipt number included and request it. The customer service lives up to its promise of no hassles and a prompt refund.

Stand-Out Features

  • All-in-one: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced Lessons
  • Games are a great bonuses that reinforces learning
  • Step-by-Step Lessons are well designed and helpful
  • Fast customer service
  • Installation is fast and simple
  • Course covers every major piano topic

Cons

  • Not all lessons have video or animation but most program don't
  • Company only offers support via email
  • Not compatible with keyboards or MIDI input
  • Lacks a progress tracking feature
  • Software is only available for MS Windows OS

Recommendation: Highly Recommended

If you are looking for a comprehensive package to begin learning the piano on your own, this product will be an excellent choice.

The amount of information that is covered in the lessons is extensive, but also simply presented and easily digested.

However, features that may be important to some consumers are lacking, including keyboard and MIDI device support and interactive progress tracking. If you absolutely need these, another product may be more suitable for your needs.

If not, consider purchasing Rocket Piano. It offers great value for your money and a no-risk guarantee. We highly recommend Rocket Piano for most people.
