WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

“This app is amazing! I'm now knee deep in scales practice and this makes learning scales and scale patterns so much more fun. I'm an intermediate player that has always gotten by with just "winging it" on solos and learning scales....this app has improved my playing and the motivation to practice each day. You won't be disappointed as the price is less than another book of scales and theory.” MusicmanJoe10, March 9, 2016

“This app is the best for learning scales....modes.....in all keys......also has a chord tab for each mode in all of the keys. I've tried many methods and this is the best.....allows you to jam out and find your own voice...you're own way of expressing yourself on the guitar. Also has great lick dictionary if you can draw yourself away from jamming......seriously good. Period.” Urdliness, May 9, 2016

"I've never been more satisfied with an instructional app. It's simple, approachable interface makes interacting to learn more simple and fun." Elmo, March 19, 2015

HOW IT WORKS

1. Pick a key to start playing the track.
2. Tap 'Chords' to see what chords are being played (rhythm)
3. Tap 'Scales' to see the scale charts for that key (lead)

CHANGE THE STYLE AT ANY TIME!

PRACTICE TIPS

Learn the chord progression for each track, and then jump over to practicing scales. Guess what? There are only 5 'shapes' of a scale to memorize! Once you know them up and down, learn where they start for each key. Soon, you'll be able to solo like a pro.

TIPS FOR THE SCALE CHARTS

- Black dots are regular notes.
- Red dots are 'root notes'. These are notes of the key you are in.
- Blue dots are 'passing notes'. Including these notes puts you in a Blues mode.

Great

This is a great app for guitarists. I like to use it along with a fender amp sim and irig, I attach an iPhone to the body of my old strat and connect it all up and walk around my house jamming away. If I get bored of a track I just change to a different style or sometimes just switch key. It works great through headphones for late night jamming or through my practice amp. There's plenty content for the starting price but I gave 4* as I'd like to see a lot more iap's.

EATS your battery

I actually quite like this app - it’s limited and quite simplistic, sure, but for what it does, it does well enough. However it has a really problematic issue - if you don’t close the app completely after using it, it will *destroy* your battery.

For example, I used it yesterday on my iPhone 7, I always charge my phone fully overnight. 24 hours later, my battery is nearly dead and Jam Tracks is responsible for 47% of battery usage in the past 24 hours. This is despite background refresh for the app being disabled. Really, really poor.

Fantastic Learning Tool

This app is the best for learning scales....modes.....in all keys......also has a chord tab for each mode in all of the keys. I've tried many methods and this is the best.....allows you to jam out and find your own voice...you're own way of expressing yourself on the guitar. Also has great lick dictionary if you can draw yourself away from jamming......seriously good. Period.
