I can't believe how good this is. Big thanks to the people that make this possible. I bought this because I don't play in bands anymore and wanted to get my chops back up. It exceeded my expectations. Thousands of songs available to download from the site and easy to write up your own. Why pay big $'s. This does the job without having to fumble through features that you probably don't want or need. Forget the rest, this is the best!
Brillant for improvisation

Great tool for using as for improvisation. Was able to download over 1300 Jazz backing tracks. Yet to find a standard not there. I had an issue in updating and the response from support was almost immediate, fixed, far exceeding my expectations.

I love using iReal Pro. As a composing guitarist, iReal Pro gives me a complete band to practice with. It understands musical theory so it helps me to create structure and meaning in my songs. Recommend it to anyone who's looking to express themselves through music.
