A system and method for providing music teaching tools, and more specifically, a system and method for providing a color-coded music theory and guitar note teacher is disclosed. The system includes a note finder fret board for guitar, a domino editor for creating a visual representation of a sequence of musical notes using the note finder fret board, the domino editor manipulates a color-coded domino for each musical note in the sequence of musical notes, a music staff reader for transforming a sequence of musical notes represented in a music staff representation into the visual representation of a sequence of musical notes using the note finder fret board, and a music staff generator for transforming a sequence of musical notes represented in the visual representation of a sequence of musical notes using the note finder fret board a music staff representation into the music staff representation. The note finder fret board for guitar is a color-coded fret board representation having a one of a plurality of color codes assigned for each guitar string at each fret on a guitar, the each of the plurality of color codes correspond to musical note on a musical scale, a color coded set of color-coded dominos corresponding to a set of musical scales associated with each musical key.

An instructional method of an electronic keyboard includes: obtaining a playing script, wherein the playing script is generated by a first terminal or a cloud server according to a first signal generated by a recording electronic keyboard and a time point of receiving the first signal, and the playing script is configured to indicate a corresponding relationship between to-be-pressed first keys and time points of pressing the to-be-pressed first keys; and controlling indicator lights on the first keys of the instructional electronic keyboard to be turned on or off according to the playing script. In this way, a user can be prompted to press the keys through the indicator lights on the electronic keyboard, which aids the user in learning how to play the electronic keyboard.

Aspects of embodiments pertain to systems and methods for providing a user with information relating to the playing of a musical instrument. The systems and methods comprise presenting the user with instrument playing instructions to be executed by at least one user; identifying, of the at least one user, at least one object expected to operably engage with the musical instrument for executing the instrument playing instructions; tracking movement of the identified at least one object; and displaying to the user at least one assistive symbol at least partly in correspondence with the presented instrument playing instructions.

Musical rhythm, is taught using a sequenced rhythm pattern, wherein a user's strike within a time window around each note maintains suppression of audible output. If a strike falls outside the time window, output resumes. FIG. 2 shows a smartphone/tablet app. Pad 13 is struck in harmony with a rhythmic pattern on display 1. Means 3 to 11 adjust app parameters. Means 2 control rhythm. A display preferably shows current and past states of the system during a session (e.g. metronome suppressed, metronome non-suppressed, strike detected in time window, strikes outside time window), as well as time remaining in the current session, as either a ‘clock’ or ‘pie chart’ type, or rectilinear ‘bar’ type, the ‘time remaining’ segment of the display being progressively replaced by sections e.g. of differing colour or texture corresponding to the current state, with the ‘time past’ segments displaying the past states.

A system to teach mathematics using virtual musical instruments displayed on a client computing device includes a server, a database stored on the server, an application stored on the server, and a plurality of songs stored on the server. The system also includes a plurality of mathematical equations stored in the database, where each mathematical equation comprises a composite of musical notes and mathematical operators. The system includes a local application stored on the client computing device to display the virtual musical instrument and is configured to display a correct indicator in response to the user solving the mathematical equation correctly when the user plays a musical note on the virtual musical instrument corresponding to the numerical answer that correlates to the song.

Disclosed are a method, a device and/or a system of a lights-guided piano key learning and teaching device. In one aspect, a piano teaching apparatus includes an elongated enclosure overlaid atop a portion of a set of keys of a piano and a set of lights, each light corresponding with each key of the set of keys respectively. A depth of an underside of the elongated enclosure permits the set of keys to be played in an unobstructed manner. The set of light illuminates when an application of a data processing system communicatively coupled with the piano teaching apparatus communicates a set of instructions synchronized with a musical note of a compilation displayed on the application of the data processing device. The musical note corresponds with a particular light that is directly above a particular key of the set of keys associated with the musical note.

A set of new accessories for the violin family instrument, switch fingerboards, which includes an assembly of switches, suitable for violin learners. Switches are laid out regularly on the spots corresponding to the notes which are written on the fingerboards. Once a switch is turned on (pressed by a finger), a CPU will be triggered, and then output of the signal of a desired pitch will immediately cause the speaker to produce a sound of that pitch. Such a switch fingerboard will surely assist beginners to practice how to stop strings and to shift positions to get pitches more precisely and efficiently. Additionally, an n-like, switch assembly fingerboard is described, where all the switches are embedded into a rectangular plate in equal intervals. With the same CPU, ROM, amplifier and speaker system, any sound recorded from a performance in the violin family, corresponding to each note, can be replayed on command.

In summary, the integral visual learning system for electric guitar and similar instruments, to which the present invention refers, has a learning method that is integrated into an application for mobile devices and contains all the learning methodology and knowledge that It will be transmitted to the user to develop the ability to play the instrument. This learning method is connected to a display device on the instrument fretboard by means of a Bluetooth communication device and allows the user to visualize by means of the illumination of transparent resins, the information of notes, chords, musical scales, and other information sent from the learning method. The system also has an augmented reality device that is made up of augmented reality glasses that allow the user to visualize a virtual teacher who provides the user with theoretical information, as well as images superimposed with the position and shape of the fingers of your left/right hand to correctly play the notes, chords and musical scales. Likewise, the system has a feedback device that identifies the notes and/or chords that the user played on the instrument and compares them with the notes and/or chords requested in the exercises contained in the learning method, this allows the users identify the precision with which they performed the exercises and gradually improve until they obtain the required mastery at the different learning levels. Finally, the system has a recharge device for a lithium ion battery that powers the entire system.
