> By “difficulty,” I meant that you can set a skill level that's a bit more forgiving

Got it! If anything, it's on beginner level right now and is very forgiving and I need to add maybe two levels above it with pro being at the top. Let me know if you think it needs something even more forgiving than how it works currently and I can try to build that in as a 4th level.

> I had somehow expected a large search bar in the app that I could use aside from the music suggestions to get started.

Yeah, the app relies on you finding the music in the way you normally do in your music players, I'll try and make this clearer. Once you have a few songs in your library however, then you can use that to navigate through them or search them up by difficulty and play them.

Thanks, will check that out.

> or are the notes transposed an octave when they no longer fit within the scale?

Do you mean this... Now and then a note bar is drawn an octave off its neighbours. The cause is the note model (GAME) choosing the wrong octave for that note. It happens most on pop with heavy backing, where a backing vocal or instrument sits an octave away. I've tried to fix, but the evals get worse so I've not managed to fix that issue yet.

There are definitely some issues I haven't been able to solve yet and it creates terrible pitch tracks for some songs. I have an eval set that I'm optimising through changes so hopefully it gets better over time. It might be at the limits of what's possible with the vocal separation, but I'm hoping that it can get better than it is right now with time and effort.

If you yourself sing an octave above or below, it will draw adjust and score you as on key.

Thank you!
