IMPORTANT: Please ensure your email address used for buying emuso is correct, before you click the BUY button on the buy page (https://emuso.buzz/buy-emuso-studio/).  Otherwise you will not receive the details required to download emuso from our distributor, and the buy process will seem to hang for awhile.  If this happens, you will (not immediately) receive the license details from us, displayed via your browser.  But you will need to email support@musicincite.buzz to get the download link.

On successful purchase, you are emailed both from our distributor, Paddle.com, and from ourselves, MusicIncite.buzz (who make emuso), with your emuso license activation details. Paddle also provides a download link to the emuso installer (a .exe file). Emuso is around 270 MB. Some browsers may warn about this file, but Windows itself won’t, when executed to install emuso. This is because emuso has been digitally signed as Windows requires. The install process is quick.

After installing, on first launch of emuso, a license activation dialogue will appear where you enter the license activation key. You will need Internet access to activate the license. Once activated, the emuso toolkit can be used. If you want to access emuso content via emuso (lessons, emusobooks, practice regimes), you have to register, via the emuso application, where you choose a log-in password, and optionally provide us with some information about yourself. Once registered you can log-in either via the website, or via emuso, using your chosen password. This gives you access to emuso content. Doing so from the website will warn that the lesson’s emuso interactions (tests, tasks etc) are unavailable, but you can stil choose to view the content in your browser. Doing so from emuso brings you the full experience.

Here is a short video covering this overall process.

We’re really proud to provide free lessons to you, to cover many topics, and will continue doing so. Check back regularly to discover what’s new. If you sign up for our News letter, or bonus freebies, we can let you know by email as new content becomes available.

We also will be introducing reasonably priced premium content for you to deeply explore musical concepts, and build technique.  Premium content is only available to emuso users, and can only be used via emuso technology.

Becoming an emuso users also gets you discounted access to Transcribe from www.seventhstring.com, an amazing tool for practicing sections of music at various tempos without changing pitch. It’s a wonderful companion to emuso.

Premium content will be a mix of

• one-off lessons
• courses
• emusobooks (imagine the Guitar Grimoire becoming interactive)
• technique regimes

Premium content will primarily be based around synchronised interactive multimedia and emuso’s virtual machine technology,  for the most immersive experiences.

Where applicable, they will come with backing track(s) and tablature as well.

For example, you could be watching a lesson on video, and at times music is replicated within emuso, where it can be saved off (by pausing the video if it doesn’t autopause) and edited.

All emuso lessons are designed to be interacted with.

Wherever you see the following icon:

Clicking on it will typically result in musical content being created on a virtual instrument, or tracks being brought into the Rhythm-X tool (music snippets, rhythm practice and so on). Often there will interactive tasks or tests to be carried out on “instrument” to reinforce the topic you are learning about. Any mistakes you make can be corrected by emuso, and you can see and hear the difference.

Additionally, some images (such as a chord shape) become interactive, replicating that chord on instrument in emuso.

Similarly, emuso supports synchronised multimedia, where content is created in emuso at various time points along the media timeline (such as at 10 seconds into the playback of mp3 (audio) or mp4 (video) content, or MIDI content. This is a very immersive experience.

If the lesson is viewed in a browser on any of your devices, none of these interactions are possible, and any clicks that would cause interactions are ignored.

We highly recommend viewing lessone from inside emuso, by logging in from emuso first.
