In a meter of hours, I have been able to sigt read piano.prices without looking at the notes, and my accuracy is.nearing 100% when playing. Be music could ne more brisk, however I am continuing to practice and the winds.of the brain are begnning to take effect.

Can you elaborate, it's unclear what exactly you are talking about...
You used dual n-back and now you read your piano pieces better, is
that what you saying?>>

I've found that my music capabilities increased after training various forms of nback as well. I wouldn't call it instant savant,but all of a sudden my math ability and spatial recognition  made a direct connection to (in my case) guitar playing. My rhythm is more fluid and my improvisation is much better compared to only a few weeks ago. I've also had no formal training in the guitar.

I've trained with n-back for several months and have noticed a profound ability to sight read music and locate the notes, my speed and overall dexterity has drastically increased and I shall continue to n-back and grow my.musical talent. I've has some rather becoming experienced and my mind as a whole is becoming more advanced; a sense a syncronizing wit phenomenal experiences and the flows of life.

Welcome to the club! Now add that with traveling the world and see what that does for your thought processes. 3 years now and I am on breakthroughs' that could change many things  -- nothing like a little perspective combined with personal growth

I dont know if you can attribute that to DNB. I play music and I have
a difficulty separating if my benefits come from DNB or musical
training. But everytime I play a piece I get better at reading music
overall. You could have just broken a plateau in your training.
Especially since you have been doing musical training the whole time
you have been doing DNB.
