----------- World Wide User Reviews ------------
5 STARS - After using this App for months, I can say this App is the best Guqin App in market (USA)

5 STARS - ...this project may be the consumer breakthrough for digital guqins and digitization of guqin music ever since Chen Changlin’s guqin MIDI project in 1987 (Toronto Guqin Society)

5 STARS - At first, I was afraid that the app was a battery hog… until I looked at the time. I had spent 6 hours playing, and I would swear that it was only 1... THAT’S how addictive this app is. (USA)

5 STARS - One of the oldest of most cultured ancient instruments is right at your fingertips. Well worth it! (USA)

----------- Trouble Shooting Section ------------
If the app crashes, delete it and re-install it again. You wont get charged again. Sorry for any inconveniences.

!!! No sound on the iPad? 2 common causes:
1. The software volume lock is on. Double tap home button for the task bar, scroll left to find the volume lock and turn it off. The hardware lock is next to the volume buttons.
2. The system sound engine crashed. Enter devices settings. Tap "General" > "Sounds" and minimize then maximize the volume bar to refresh the sound engine.
