This might need changing opinions in the future, but for now. The software is wide open and there are so many settings, even as options are limited. I am not sure how to do much here. I have played with the singing part and I am happy with it for simply singing, but it doesn't seem to record my score. I would be better off with UltraStarDeluxe at the moment. I have not tried the instrumental or dance options since I do not have anything whatsoever to put on and try it all.

I am using the Linux version and I am on a Linux Mint Mate 19 machine. This could be something worth noting.
