Vocal Range - Pitch Detector 4+

This is a great app for vocalists. Especially lead singers in a band. If the song the band wants to do isn’t in your range you have a choice of changing the songs key,
(which I don’t like cuz some songs only sound good in the original key) or just tell the guys or gals that the song shouldn’t be in the list. Simple as that!! Great App!

I had high hopes for this app. It sounds great in the description but alas I find it severely lacking in actual delivery. The pitch range finder is way off to start with. I am a bass and for some reason it says “Mezzo Soprano” after recording my voice. That’s ridiculous since my vocal range is from C1-A4. The range scale inexplicably ends at C2, so it’s missing an entire octave at the bottom of the register. Granted not all basses can hit C1 but they should be able to hit either an E1 or F1 and that’s not an option with this app currently. I know you can adjust the sliders manually but, in my opinion, that really defeats what this app was designed to do. Maybe the dev put that in so you could tweak things to see what other songs and artists would match up with you if you sang in a slightly higher or lower register. The top end of the Soprano range does not seem to suffer from being cut short like the bass. There are probably some sopranos that can go above the C6 and would say extend this to C7. I’m not exactly sure what buying the pro version of the app gives you, but I, for one, am not willing to spend money to upgrade an app that in my opinion is already lacking in its delivery. For now I’d say pass on this app until the dev makes some necessary tweaks!

This App. has The potential to be a great app. According to this app, I am a Mezzo Soprano vocalist, but the App. only presented songs by Men for my voice. Also, there was nothing current available for me to sing. Especially there was nothing soulful presented. I would’ve paid $3.99 if there were soulful songs available. Lastly, my range surpasses what’s available in the app, but the app stops monitoring before I reach my lower range. I’m a female, but I can sing baritone notes, I can also hit Mariah Carey notes, but again the app would not register those notes.

Had this been more robust, I would have easily purchased it. Thanks for the experience and the work you have contributed to develop this app. I will keep my eyes open for an update.
