Präzis, gut zu bedienen und sehr lehrreich
Der Aufbau der App, die Übungen, die Auswertungen und die Einstellungsmöglichkeiten sind sehr gut. Stellt man die App um auf das schlichte Theme, sieht sie sogar schick aus.
Einfach aber gut!
Ideal für den Musikunterricht
👍
This app is very interesting and helps a lot to improove precision in my play. It would be very interesting if this app would be compatible with audiobus or any other instrument app (amplink). So the exercices could be practiced with an instrument.
Good
i like it so far.
This app is my rhythm sight reading teacher
A perfectly designed app for the iOS devices, which realizes a useful concept of rhythm training and testing. ReadRhythm allows one to go step by step when improving his rhythm sight reading skills. Each next level adds a new rhythmic element. I recommend one to practice every level until he/she can pass the endurance test: complete at least 5 exercises of the same level in a suite with varying tempo. Then go to the next level. I completely agree with the previous customer, who wrote about adding a rhythm editor for writing one's own exercises. What else could one desire? Perhaps support for midi-input from a keyboard and random note degrees, so one can also practice rhythmic melodies on the piano, by connecting it to the iPad via the camera connection kit...
best app in this category
wonderful! exactly what i needed: easy to handle, extensiv, lots of exercises and a bunch of important options. training first, testing than - a very clever approach with the metronome price is ok. I wish i could give 10 stars. thank you, developer!!! now already in version 4.6 app is getting better and better! I have only one request though: Would it be possible to include a kind of editor to make your rhythms yourself? Sometimes while reading sheet music i discover a rhythm i would like to practise separately from the included rhythms wit this trainer. Otherwise i cannot imagine what could be better! Every music Player/lover should get this app!!!
