Karedi supports multiple operating systems and has no external dependencies. Just install it and you are ready to go!
You don't need to understand the format in which Ultrastar expects the songs to be transcribed. Karedi hides the technical details from you, giving you the opportunity to focus on what matters.
Are you a shortcut freak that hates touching the mouse? Are you a mouse fan that hates remembering all different shortcuts? Somewhere in between?
Either way, Karedi is for you - you can do everything in multiple ways. Just choose the way you find most convenient.
It behaves like you expect it to. You can move stuff, you can copy stuff, you can always undo any mistakes and do other operations you would expect from an editor. There is no reinventing the wheel - Karedi uses well established shortcuts and gestures.
The new song wizard will walk you through all the steps necessary to start vocal track transcription. All shortcuts are listed in the menu next to the actions they invoke. You can hover your mouse on stuff to see hints explaining what it is for.
Last but not the least, it is fully documented on this website and you have a tutorial for beginners that will walk you through the process of creating an Ultrastar song!
Karedi reuses the same set of shortcuts that previous editors did to minimize the learning curve. It offers you features like note-tapping, auto-syllabification, multiple playback, display and copy-paste modes to let you create songs faster and easier.
There are also tutorials on this website dedicated to more advanced creators!
