I have tried an interactive sheetmusic but I have noticed a quite significant difference between the sound of playback when there is the simple interactive mode and you want to listen to the sound while notes are going on on the pentagramma and when you the playground mode the sound changes. It become less clear, lower of volume, related to the first mode. I don’ t understand Why this happens. When playing for example violin it would be nice to listen to a clear, high volume sound like the one you listen to with the simple playback. If you could improve the sound of playground I think musicians could enjoy more playing their music. Playing with playground is surely important when reading a sheetmusic . It helps musicians following the right rhythm of notes with the colored green line moving along the pentagramma. Thanks
Hello Alessandro! The volume can be further increased in "Player" mode (the top switch inside the Playground), then click "Settings" and from there the volume can be increased (after clicking the speaker icon at the bottom of the settings panel). Other than that, the computer volume must be increased. Hope this helps your on your music journey.

Hello, Chedid, and thank you for your inquiry.
At the moment, the Playground includes very basic sounds for portability and usability across any device (most browsers still have limited capabilities on that front), but we can certainly add an option in the future to enable better sounds.
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
