 Toy with Benefits March 4, 2007
I have been having so much fun with this product that it is hard to leave the computer. You can really make your own songs if you are creative. It is extremely easy to deal with. I just wish it had a few more commands, such as a pause button.
 Misleading Advertising February 15, 2007

The program, for what it actually is designed to do is easy to use and fun as a toy. I may look into getting a microphone for my kids to play around with, as I am now stuck with the software.
The advertisement, however, stated users could edit their "own unique songs". I took this to mean I could use music I already owned on CD's, which is what I needed. This program will not allow the user to import anything. The "songs" created with this program are mostly percussion.
