Great app
I love this app. I use it to make chord charts, backing tracks, write songs, teach music. It’s perfect. I would love the option to duplicate a song. I often have to write parts for multiple instruments and it would be much easier to duplicate a song and adjust it accordingly thanks to have to build another one from scratch.
This app is great for theory
If play Guitar or Piano this app is amazing. So much to use. Worth the $10. The tabs/sheet music is hearable for ear/practice to metronome.
Very good songwriting/theory app
I don’t know how easy this app may be for a beginner, but for someone like me, with some basic knowledge (but poor memory) this app is incredibly useful. As a sketchpad for song composition it’s pretty intuitive and easy to learn, I haven’t yet discovered if there is a way to input chord notes through a keyboard (MIDI or the screen based one), as that would be very nice and intuitive, but the system so far is pretty good and it helps fine tune your knowledge and ear. Again, maybe a “Build a chord” feature is available, but if so I haven’t found it yet. It would be nice to have some drumming features, like very basic 4/4 or 3/4 background drumming, and maybe the ability to have a simple bass sound follow the chords. Nothing too fancy. I wouldn’t want this app to turn into a DAW. It would scare away beginners, but maybe an add-on module with those basic features could be unlocked for those of us that can use it. All in all, this is a very useful app for songwriters, especially those with a bad memory, like myself. I wish there was something similar for melody writing, yt so far all the AI melody apps I tried have not impressed me, and maybe that’s a good thing. I am curious to see if this app will evolve with even more useful features.
Fix scales
They need to add a color scheme or dividers on the guitar scales cause I can’t tell when they start and stop.
Lamest App Ever
They definitely got ai bots to write their reviews and they got me on it. Don’t buy it. All it is is a bunch of buttons you can click to play chords. It’s a scam and you will lose your $10 if you buy it.
Wonderful
Really amazing app! Has a lot of different features and it has helped me with a lot of things!
I have a question
Hello, I would like to put the chords with split bars . For example C/Am 7
This app it’s amazing
I love it, I’m not a pro just a dad of two kids who loves playing electric guitar with a looper and drums , I always struggled to search for proper scales and save pictures and learn but this app makes everything so easy, just find the key set it, pick your favorite scale and play , well worth an investment of 15$ with all scales unlocked, I wish the basic tuner was included in app and price cause paying monthly for a tuner makes no sense this is a definitely downgrade of this app
Not a fan of the interface
Can’t figure out if the app is faulty or just hard to understand. The advertisement seems to have been misleading.
