BlueBassScales 4+

With the BlueScalesTrainer for guitar it made sense to implement this also for the bassists as the BlueBassScales app. Shouldn't be that heavy, there are only 2 strings less. But then I thought of the 5-string fans and the whole thing got a bit more complex.

But now the app for bass players is also ready. With the same functions as the BlueScalesTrainer, but lot more playalong songs from easy to difficult with a bass mutable. Here are the main points I wanted to achieve:

* The scales should be displayed while playing, so it needs a music audio player
* New songs should be analyzed to show you the key of a song
* The scales should then be displayed individually in large size and as an overview, matching the selected song
* Overview and single view of scale patterns should be switched by foot pedal
* A fretboard view provides a complete overview and should also be able to hide notes.
* Both Bass types 4/5-String and a lot more Playalong loops.

Thanks to my app BlueScalesTrainer I already had the base for most of the things, only the scales for 5-string Bass needs to be added. I also took over the effect section, so that you can use the 7 audio effects in the BlueBassScales as well.
Here are the extensive functions that I have integrated in the BlueBassScales app and everything without subscription, InApp Purchase or advertising:
