imageeMedia Music Corp. has released version 5.0 of eMedia Guitar Method, which sports new udio recognition software technology that purportedly listens to the student playing melodies and shows whether the correct notes are played.

In addition, the new Finger Tracker shows the actual note being played on an on-screen fretboard, and the new Note Tracker shows that note in standard music notation. An expanded curriculum offers over 180 lessons that are now presented in full-screen resolution.

The 50-videos can also be viewed in full-screen mode. Lessons from Kevin Garry (Ph.D., University of Colorado-Boulder) cover everything from the basics to chord strumming, playing melodies and fingerpicking, and now include new interactive quizzes.

The material covers folk, blues, classical and rock styles and includes over 70 songs with hits from artists such as Bob Dylan, the Grateful Dead, the Rolling Stones and Steve Miller. Bonus accessories include a digital metronome, chord dictionary, automatic tuner, and digital recorde.

Version 5.0 of eMedia Guitar Method is available now at an estimated retail price of $59.95. The CD-ROM is a hybrid for both Mac OS X (10.4 and higher) and Windows (XP/Vista/Windows 7.
