## GuitAfrica Reviews in Vereinigte Staaten

### ***** "Amazing app"
This app takes you to a guitar voyage across Africa!
-- achikall, 2021-05-26

### ***** "superb app for musicians"
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
-- Andreslocousa, 2019-12-25

### ***** "Excellent app"
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.
-- musear3977, 2019-09-18

### ***** "Eric N"
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.
-- Prof Edub Sample, 2015-08-23

### **--- "For advanced music staff-reading players only!"
I&#039;ve often read negative reviews for apps in the app store, and it&#039;s just because the person writing the review doesn&#039;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&#039;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&#039;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.
-- Guitarot, 2015-01-28

### ****- "Need finger tab version"
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.
-- MattJasper, 2014-06-07

### ***** "Props to Loueke and the programmers."
First off, most software companies would charge the app’s price for each of the &gt;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&#039;s own leisure.
Each instrument  can be turned on and off, and bpm &amp; tonality changed, w/o ever pausing the music, and without slightest lag.
Best of all? Coders involved  demonstrate virtuosity on par with Mr. Loueke&#039;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.
-- nurikaakasouliloquy, 2013-12-31

### ***** "A Case Study in World Music Education"
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!
-- GaryInThailand, 2013-11-24

### ***** "Comprehensive Overview of African Music"
I have been searching for something like this for a long time. This app demystifies the huge umbrella category of &quot;African music&quot; and breaks it down into different styles from specific countries. The sheet music is very helpful to follow along, and I like how you can mute specific instruments to really understand each part of the groove. Plus, with this app, you get to play with African guitar master Lionel Loueke whenever you want!
-- Ojuoba, 2013-10-17

### ***** "Wow"
I just got this app today and have been pouring over it.  Absolutely fantastic app.  Lionel Loueke is one of the greatest guitarists/musicians alive and his bassist, Massimo Bialcati, is a great app designer as well as a great bassist.  I was at a club hearing them a few years ago and Lionel said, &quot;Massimo has a new app you should check out.&quot;  It was IRealBook which is one of the best apps ever and has evolved beautifully.  

This app shows the same level of care.  The tunes are gorgeous and span a vast range of African countries and styles.  The ability to mute and solo whatever parts you want as well as loop and slow down any section makes learning much easier.  What a fantastic treasure trove of tunes and styles there are here.  I&#039;ve never seen a better learning tool for African Guitar (though there is a cool book with midi files called African Guitar styles I think that&#039;s pretty great, too).

Having audiobus so you can record and rearrange the tunes any way you want is fantastic.  So many possibilities.  I&#039;m looking forward to many happy hours and much learning with this app.
-- Nicknamepissesmeoff, 2013-10-15

### ***** "A new page in the history of jazz !"
To me this App is one of the most fascinating and illuminating Apps ever made. All of the musical examples are so stimulating. For musicians looking to expand their harmonic - rhythmic and melodic vocabulary, that&#039;s the real deal!
-- detroit428, 2013-10-05

### ***** "Fun times in Africa"
I love this app! Learning to play guitar can be frustrating for me, so being able to play along with these funky tunes is a revelation. Not only am I learning all these African music styles that I didn&#039;t know about, it&#039;s also super fun. It doesn&#039;t feel like learning or practice. I&#039;m totally playing with Lionel Loueke and a band...if I close my eyes. Woot!!
-- Starfish::, 2013-10-02

### ***** "Finally a great guitar app!!"
This is truly an amazing achievement! Lionel is a master in both playing and demonstrating how to perform the vast and rich musical tradition of his continent.
The sound is impressive and the app is very clear on how to get these guitar techniques in your hands. The compositions are beautiful and inspiring. The notation is very clear and useful. All in all a great learning tool!!
-- Juancho Herrera, 2013-10-02

### ***** "Unbelievable App"
What a great App ? I can finally understand better where is the downbeat in African music :-) Wow!!!! Thanks for answering so many questions guys. YOU MAKE MY DREAM COME TRUE :-)
John Scofield is so right man... Groove!!! Groove!! Groove!!
-- Tekanon, 2013-10-01

### ***** "Awesome Amazing African App"
The songs are so beautiful! I&#039;m having a blast playing along with them. Some of them are hard but I&#039;m looking forward to learn something totally new on the guitar. There&#039;s so much material to discover and the option to slow down and repeat a section is very helpful.
-- momonsterBass, 2013-10-01
