Not for intermediate players, DEFINITELY not for beginners.
Few important points I wanna make: -The chords written are not accurate to what is being played. The developer confuses major/minor/dominant chords. So basically everything. Measures and song forms are written very poorly. Good luck figuring it out on your own. -Tracks don’t sound authentic to any of the styles available. I mean not even single one. I understand if the developer is a metalhead not familiar with jazz music, but the person is an amateur musician who really needs to study more music. -Basically it’s just a guitar player playing poorly made riffs over drum machines. And even the guitar tones sound really cheap. If you’re a serious musician you will immediately figure out that you’ve made a mistake by paying high dollars. If you’re a beginner, only thing you will get out of this app will be a bad habit of misreading music. I’m seriously ashamed of spending money on this app. I could’ve made a better library of jam tracks on my own in a single day. Sorry developers. Hope you made enough money to go take some music lessons.
United StatesDon’t buy it!
1) I don’t know of any guitarist who practices with the fingerboard displayed verticaly-all positions in sections. 2) Take the huge logo out and put the whole fingerboard there horizontally! Maybe mark positions on that. 3) No notes on the fingerboard! How hard would that be to put a circle with the note inside? They show the root with color! 4) Where am I in the song? No song position markers? I am not a trained musician and trying to follow a jazz progression while working on a leed is hard enough. They give you the chords, but they let you figure out which one is playing. 5) It would be nice to have the arpeggios highlighted for each chord as it was playing. 6) Why can’t I change the size of the app and make it bigger? I download backtracks from youtube, print out the scale for that song and BINGO. Some backtracks show the chords as it is playing and show you the next chord also.
United StatesNeed additional tracks.
The tracks available are OK but there are not that many and a lot of them are a little slow. Would be nice to be able to download additional tracks and to be able to vary the temp of the exsisting tracks. There are easier wys to play lead than to memorize all of these scales. In relaity you nee just two, 1st and 5th and be able to move between them. Then just pick a key. Easy.
United StatesI like Jam Tracks because of it’s simplicity…
Very helpful… Although, it could use a little more functionality. Chord progressions and scale patterns can't to be viewed at the same time. It’s important to understand the best note choices(chord tones) in relation to the chords. As opposed to just running through scales tones (other than the Root & b5 or Blues note). I do like the Modal tracks…! Other then that… its a great app!
United StatesGood Stuff
This app is great. I use it at work on my lunch break or in between renders. Finally got some new tracks. Thanks for that. Great app though and worth the money. Thanks.
United StatesFanstastic app!!!
I saw the this app and wonder if the software worked as well as people said. I got a chance to fire it up and was very impressed on the set up. It is great for beginners to experienced players. It helps prevent guitarist getting stuck in “the box” and great for just practicing chords and different rhythm. I love house it should you the chord progression and several different scales within the major and minor keys. I your looking for an app to keep your fingers motorskills up this is the app! Great job and looking forward to new updates.
