 Trope Trainer December 16, 2008
Paul Peretz (Ohio)
Trope Trainer Deluxe (Includes 5 Megillot) - World's Best Bar Mitzvah / Bat Mitzvah Trainer Plus 5 Megillot!
This is an amazingly versatile and adaptable training tool. I purchased it for my son to learn his Bar Mitzvah Torah portion and I am relearning right along with him. It's a very helpful teacher.
A wonderful tool! June 14, 2008

I got this so my son could get ready for his bar mitzvah. It has been very helpful to him. My husband and I are also interested in learning to chant the Hebrew scriptures and will find this very helpful. My husband likes that it has the musical notes since he reads music to sing and will find that very helpful for him. I love the large choice of styles of chanting and that the speed can be adjusted. You can also choose to have the music played with it. That is something that is helpful for me. It really can be customized for whatever learning style you are.
 It works well with a Mac and Parallels Desktop January 12, 2008

I am using Trope Trainer with Parallels Desktop (which emulates a Windows environment on my Mac), and it works very well! The Trope Trainer software itself is excellent. The voice is a bit mechanical, but I am certainly able to learn Torah and Megillot portions with relative ease.

This is an exceptional product that does all that it claims. The support provided (telephone call) was equally notable.
An Excellent Tutor September 1, 2007
Dunric (Tidewater, VA USA)
My son used this for his Bar Mitzvah. My older son used this program in conjunction with his training to read tropes. We have all used this product to prepare for various readings. I especially like the ability to change the voice range and the various pronunciations. Each Shul is different, but I found settings which are comfortable both for the speaker and the audience. I would recommend that each congregation have a copy of this; it promotes uniformity of teaching and extends the reach of tutoring efforts.
