Ratings and Reviews
Great, but some improvements would be highly appreciated
This app is very useful and very ergonomic but some suggestions :
- You cannot delete one individual note from a shape. Fortunately, most of the time you can find a suitable shape, but it’s a wasting time reviewing all differents shapes before findind the good one. And sometimes I was unable to find a good shape,for fingering purposes, so I have some note positions I cannot remove . The note removal is global where it should be individual.
- In addition to the global zoom, a vertical zoom should be implemented to adjust the fretboard heigth, and to display several fretboards , i.e. for rehearsal .
- No sound all all ( notes cannot be played ). For training or mobile situations, or without instrument, it can be useful to hear the notes. The final goal is playing music ;-)
- May we have a user defined default color set instead of the default white color ? Now, I have to create a default shape with default colors then clone it.
Other ideas for future versions: Add MIDI Clock or ReWire sync to automatically switch between groups or scrolling while using a DAW , and playing a song...
Scales, chords and every option lesson content
This a well thought out and well designed application with all the features, a storage file for all personally created scales and a well designed web page with some good learning material. I am pleasently suprised. I have had 20 guitar apps in three weeks looking for the right one.
I consider myself an IT professional since its my career. When I first logged in I did have to get accustomed the interface and the design. When you log in you create your own folder and start storing content there. I was unsure at first but the logic kicked in. I have been looking for an App that has all material required but an app that also me to build the learning scales/content I need and modify as I go. I was also pleased when I was able to adjust the layout of the UI. Everything can be printed and the print layout is a one pager and obviously well thought of. But then I wanted learning material/content to support my study of the guitar and all the voicings. I navigated over the webpage and found a good mix of quality videos, a forum and additional resources. I'm very happy with the App. As an IT professional I have seen people put together an app in 2 days. This is not the case. This is a well configured, developed and functional application for my MacBook.
sound would be totally awesome
I love this app. Great conception, great learning and teaching tool. Great way to create new ways to practice. I too think it would be so awesome to hear sounds, although I know the developer didn't intend to do this. still, would make an awesome app even more awesome.
Developer Response ,
We are working to improve the software and today we not exclude the possibility to add the sound feature in the future. Thanks for your feedback
