I have synthesia and no, it’s not the same. This one requires you to know sheet music, a must have skill I you want to learn a piece quicker than rote memorization in synthesia. I used to refuse reading sheet music. But, thank goodnesses, I knew I was mistaking and since then was able to learn more complicated pieces like the Aria in Goldberg or couple of preludes in the WTC.
