Q: WHO IS THIS APP FOR?

1) Music instructors with a BASIC understanding of modal theory who want to increase their confidence and effectiveness in teaching this fairly complex topic.

2) Music instructors with a COMPLETE understanding of modal theory who are looking for an easier, more consolidated approach to teaching and practicing the material with students.

3) Intermediate to advanced music students who are proficient in pentatonic and major scales and are interested in achieving more expressive guitar improvisation / melody creation. 

Q: MODAL THEORY LITERATURE IS AVAILABLE EVERYWHERE - WHY BUY THIS APP?

The breadth of freely available information about modal theory is the main reason it’s so difficult to learn (and teach) - there is simply too much out there, and much of it is poorly written or incorrect; a recipe for confusion! Teaching modal theory effectively requires a distillation and simplification of core concepts, organized strategically so they're easy for students to learn - and a method for applying those skills during lessons. 

For less than the cost of an average theory book, we've consolidated and organized modal theory into it's finest form, and hand-crafted a completely custom experience, ideal for mastering the material. We know you and your students will love our approach!

Thanks

I couldn’t figure out how to edit my previous review, so posting a new one. Thanks for updating the app to open on the iPad using iOS 14! Noting that if you could make it so it can rotate portrait to landscape like Beats, that would be even better! Thanks again for the quick update!

Update?

This was a very nice app once upon a time. It is no longer compatible with the recent iOS versions. Wondering if it will ever be updated? Current version issue, won’t launch in v14.5.1

Text overlaps making it impossible to read.

I do like the other product by this developer but this one is unusable on my iPad or iPhone. The title text overlaps the interval descriptions making it nearly impossible to read the content. I gave up one the app after a couple of minutes. Recommend saving your money.

No more pentatonic

A minor was my go to and know this inside n out up n down the neck. After playing this n getting by I want deeply to go to the next level. YouTube was a bust as you get a small bit without the backing knowledge I spent cash on it loaded the app went over it a few times then started to use it. No after some time melodic scales come from modes and that was it. After using n practicing and memorizing and going back over this now is something that seemed so big but now it was really small and I use it daily. My wife has noticed a difference ( I don't think she ever watched intently) but it is just more melodic and more NOT the normal sounds-
