A Useful App, But …
This is a very useful app. But it would be a “great” app if it included some scale arpeggios for each scale. Now that would make it the ultimate scale practice tool!
Description
Over 100 scales notated and played for you, including note names and melodic intervals. Transposition for instruments in Ab, Eb, Bb, F, C, G, D, A, and E. Play along! Create a pdf of the notation and piano key markings for sharing or printing. Listen and watch the notes or piano keys highlight as it plays.
Transpose with a touch, to any root, in treble, alto, tenor or bass clef. See the scale notated correctly, with double sharps and flats as needed. For example, Gb minor has a B double flat, not an A.
Have the scale played in a wide variety of ways.
• Choose from 11 rhythmic patterns.
• Choose 1, 2 or 3 octaves.
• Loop continuously, or play just once through.
• Select the space between each loop.

Very helpful!
This app is helping me learn better intonation in my upright bass studies. Thanks so much!!!!!
Nice app for learning scales
Returning to trumpet using app to learn scales and transposing also.
Superb!
Finally! The perfect scale app! Very thoughtfully and simply organized user interface. Not loaded with special features. But hard to imagine finding a better delivery system. i will use this to workout on both, piano and bass.
So SO
Lots of scales - yes. Problems too. The staff display shows only one scale up in range and no scale down. When a greater range is selected the display still only shows one scale. It would be nice to see the notes above or below the staff. Also the choice between sharps and flats sometimes seems a little arbitrary. As a bass clef player, I am used to seeing flats rather than sharps. In some of the modes where the root is in flats, the program chooses to use sharps. An optional choice would be nice.
Great app!
I use it to practice bass scales too!
Great app! Key Signatures?
This is a very nice app. I see this as a great tool for teaching as well as personal practicing. I think adding a key signature feature to the scales that have conventional ones would make this app fantastic!
I'll go 5 stars when the update comes...
All it needs to make me happy is help for transposing instruments! Nicely done!
An enjoyable way to learn the scales
Very nice presentation of the scales. Good to practice an instrument with the tuning and play with the scales. The sound of the piano is very good. It is a good list of scales, but, I am missing the main scales of the classical Indian music, ragas. I really could need it to practice the sitar. It is only about 10 more scales, as the basics. Please bring those on the next update to complete, and I gladly put 5 stars for this nice app.
Very Cool!
Wow! Another cool app.........Thanks!
