GuitAfrica

Bin völlig begeistert von Inhalt, Sound und Handhabung dieser App!

Wer sich wirklich ernsthaft mit afrikanischer Musik auf höchstem Niveau beschäftigen will, dem sei dieses Juwel unter den Musik-Apps allerwärmstens empfohlen! Es ist nämlich unglaublich, was hier geboten wird: Zahlreiche und stilistisch breit gefächerte Aufnahmen hervorragender Musiker (sogar kulturgeographisch zugeordnet und beschrieben), komplett (!) für jedes Instrument ausnotiert, sogar die einzelnen Stimmen sind beim Abhören zu- beziehungsweise abschaltbar, selbst das Tempo ist einstellbar, und eine Loop-Funktion gibt's auch. 5 Sterne hat aber alleine schon die Musik verdient, die hier zu hören ist. Ich schreibe diese Rezension übrigens nur, weil es zu meiner großen Verwunderung anscheinend noch niemand gemacht hat.

This app takes you to a guitar voyage across Africa!

gives you terrific compositions with ability to mute guitar and bass, drum and click, modify pitch tempo with real recordings with great feel. Totally cool learning and jamming. A must for bassist or guitarist who wants to expand his groove and chops. The composer has the goods, so does the app company (real book pro) SO GOOD

This app can support and inspire, and is a worthwhile complement to the essential iReal Pro, a game changer for musicians on iOS and ANDROID.

Amazing and beautiful app. Extraordinary grooves. Listen first and foremost. Improve your reading by listening and looking at clean and accurate notation.This app is a gift and will take you places.

I've often read negative reviews for apps in the app store, and it's just because the person writing the review doesn't understand how the app works. I will admit, that in this case I need be one of those people. I heard Herbie Hancock rave about this app at one of his concerts when he was introducing his guitarist and the author of this app. The app had stellar reviews (only 12). It was on sale for $2.99 so I tried it out. This app is nothing more than some of the songs of the guitarist written out in sheet music and then the musical score is played along with the sheet music. If you're the kind of person who can read music, and is an advanced player that knows all the different techniques on an acoustic guitar, then this app may be of use to you. Otherwise it offers no tablature or tutorial instruction on the pieces. I'm giving this app two stars, because it purports to help guitarists learn to play, and it will only help those who are at a very high level.

Would be great to have a finger tab version for those of us who do not read music.... Song selection could be expanded, though existing selections are nicely implemented.

First off, most software companies would charge the app’s price for each of the >20 songs featured in this app; as singular app purchases. If you’re not familiar with Loueke’s virtuosity, you better start researching, i heard him for the first time playing in hancock’s band and been a fan ever since. , ALL songs are immaculately notated for all instruments, sheet can be followed synchronously w/ the music, or browsed/zoomed at user's own leisure. Each instrument can be turned on and off, and bpm & tonality changed, w/o ever pausing the music, and without slightest lag. Best of all? Coders involved demonstrate virtuosity on par with Mr. Loueke's , judging by the polished experience; 2 months of heavy testing, NOT a single lag/crash/glitch, ever. I’ve been an IOS app junkie for 4 years, and this is by far my fav. App so far. For the breadth of material being offered, 7 dollars is beyond cheap, it’s salvation-army pricing.

Absolutely wonderful! This the perfect example for tutorial apps in world music. I hope there will be more for all the great music in the world. Bravo!
