  • Extremely helpful and I wish I found it sooner!!

    By brownrICE1233 (Pcmac user)

    Within the time that I have discovered this application to now i can already tell how valuable of a resource this is going to be, especially taking university level music classes. Any struggling student just take the time to look for other resources to develop the necessary skills and with so much information to learn it can be an extremely daunting task. However this app has all that information and more within the basic version alone, including a virtual the app, Chord Progression generator, and even a Chord Dictionary! The only suggestion I have is redesigning the presentation of the info, particularly in the Chord Dictionary section where it has lots of helpful things like the app diagram of the chords along with quality and an audio snippet of said chord when tapped on, however there is an overwhelming amount of information all at once when taking into account the diatonic chords, 9th, 13th chord, etc. When i opened the app initially i was immediately intimidated by it but after really looking through it i was able to decipher what i needed vs what was there because it simply exists. Cutting out the fluff with help streamline the use of the app and the user will have a much more straightforward experience, no explanation or intimidation (ideally). Still overall I believe this application will give me the boost i need in my classes and really improve/expand my knowledge as a musician. 10/10 would recommend.

  • Crash issue - chord progression key change

    By Werdrath (Pcmac user)

    Great app in theory, but very confusing and many many pages to get lost in while just trying to get a couple chords noted down. Takes some getting used to
  • Samples

    By Saeid Aghapour (Pcmac user)

    I would love it if you could add a sample for each scale. It would make this perfect.
