Description

Sight-reading skills open the door to reading written music and familiarizing yourself with various music styles. Sight-reading is not a daunting task, and with sufficient practice, anyone can develop this valuable skill.

Our app is designed to help you quickly identify notes across every part of the fretboard, with a special focus on positional playing.

By enhancing your sight-reading abilities, you'll find it easier to focus on other musical aspects like harmony and rhythm.

Features:

PRACTICE & TEST MODE

- Four different modes of use:
1. Locate notes on the fretboard based on the notes in staff.
2. Locate notes on the fretboard based on note name and pitch.
3. Find the names of notes on the staff (without the fretboard)
4. Identify the names of notes presented on the fretboard.

- Automatic detection of problematic notes.

KEY SIGNATURES & SCALES

- Key signature support, from 1 to 6 sharps or 1 to 6 flats.

- Automatic selection of the enharmonic notes for each scale to prevent double sharps or double flats in the key signature.

- Scales include major, minor, melodic minor, harmonic minor, blues, pentatonic, and all modal scales.

FRETS, STRINGS & NOTE SELECTION

- Support for 4, 5 and 6 string bass guitars.

- Frets are grouped to limit the number of notes to practice and test.

- Predefined fret groups, e.g., 0-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10-12, 0-12, 13-17, etc.

- You can define custom fret groups.

- The highlighted fret group is displayed on the fretboard.

- Your sight-reading progress is tracked per fret group.

- The longest streak record per fret group measures your sight-reading accuracy.

- You can select specific strings for the highlighted area.

- Test notes can be limited to naturals or notes from a selected scale.

READ AHEAD

- Reading ahead is a crucial skill for effective sight-reading.

- You can adjust the number of notes to read ahead.

OTHER

Very useful for beginners.

The app is simple enough to use, if you have just picked up the bass and a great way to learn your scales.

A great addition that would be awesome to see, if I could plug in my bass, using an iRig or whatever other way, and answer the test, by playing the note, I understand that would require writing in a tuner, and would require a set up process, as not all basses have perfect pitch once you start moving up the fret board, but then i could also practice my finger work as well as theory.

thank you guys for making this.

Don’t buy

Touch function works intermittently . Not a useful tool

Probably the app behaviour you experience is caused by unintentional dragging of the fretboard. The most recent version of the app has a small lock icon on the main screen to disable fretboard scrolling. This way no taps can be missed, no matter how the tap is executed. I hope this will help.
