Staff learning is a process of repeated and random reinforcement learning, which deepens the memory of the positions of staff notes. Includes options for bass, treble, midrange, and sub midrange. Please choose an appropriate spectrum based on the specific learning situation. Learning the staff requires a lot of memory practice. Not being able to reflect notes in a short period of time indicates that you have mastered the staff. If it must be practiced to a certain extent, it is to reflect the sound of the note almost without time.
