The point of this thread is that Synthesia is just wonderful! I know the developer and sometimes I help him finding bugs.
You really should contribute to him because this program is one of the best I ever saw! It costs $29. Might sound pricey for
a little program, but it's really worth the money. Synthesia is great to observe and examine the musical structure of a song.

Yup, but can it show the notes being played? Nup...

Ok. I'll admit that's nice.

I've used Synthesia for a while and it's really neat and kudos to the creator. That being said, I think this topic is a bit superfluous.

Synthesia is cool, but it doesn't communicate everything like hand crossing, pedaling, layers, fingering, yadayadayada. Try plugging my Temporal Tower MIDI into Synthesia, and you'll see what I mean.
