I notice that under "Settings" you can vary the speed of the song from 0.5x up to 2x. I tried the 0.5x speed for a song I was having difficulty on, but it was WAY TOO SLOW. Is it possible to add 0.75x speed to the Song lessons? This would enable us to practice along with the song video at a slightly slower speed in order to focus on accuracy.

Thank you!

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll present this to the team to see if adding an additional speed would work for all users.

I've wished for other speed choices too. I am puzzled by the faster options...I don't understand what use they serve but I agree with Joann that more options for different slower speeds, both slower and faster than currently available, would be useful.

Yes - how about 75 and 90 percent. Deep River Blues is to slow at 50 and to fast at 100 percent.

I agree this would be super helpful. It would be great to have more speed increments between 75% - 100%. the current 50% is simply too slow to be of any use.

Thanks!
