Many people would like to learn how to play a musical instrument. Unfortunately, many of them never do. There are numerous reasons for that: lack of time, lack of motivation, absence of music school in near area, etc. Computer technology can be used to overcome some of these issues. In this paper the answers on questions about which features and properties user interface of adaptive drum kit learning system should have are presented and elaborated. Research results, along with possible solutions based on previous research, are presented and discussed.

In this paper, a brief overview of computer systems that have been developed in the domain of learning how to play a musical instrument will be given. It will also be described what kind of feedback information is available in these systems. A new adaptive learning model, which is based on a real-time adaptation to users' skills and knowledge, will be proposed. This model also includes advanced errors detection that enables better feedback, which is able to address the users' needs in a more precise manner and which is also able to give more precise feedback on the type of users’ playing errors.
