Scales & Modes app good for
Its a great app, well done and has complete functions. 1,99$ is a bit expansive though...
This app is very simple and straight-forward, but it helped me a lot to learn after some more extensive reading.
Very good, honest and cheap!!!!
Im a casual learner, I work this into my spare time whenever my computers busy with a rendering task. Given my novice status, this app is simple with a high volume of information - the same as a Big Gag Book of Scales, but phone-sized. The interface is easy to read and condensed. I love this app, and I wish they continued to make it for iPad Pro and iPhone6. Very handy.
Thanks for this! Its just what I needed to practice my vocals with. I have been teaching a guitar method using these scales for years and will recommend to my students and anyone wanting to learn these scales. Suggestion to add practice mode utilizing a pre programmed circle of fifths based on root note. That would be great for a fast paced daily excessive.
Its good for what it does, but overall it is inferior to the Nota app, which has many more scales, and has chords and stuff. I have both of these apps and I feel I would have been just as good without this one. But, if all you are looking for is scales and modes, by all means grab this.
This is a nice app. It gives me the information I need (mainly what notes are in a key) in a fast and clean manner. It would be nice if I could select a bass guitar.
Some bad moments
Not worth a 1.99. Search engine your
Scales n modes instead. No outstanding features out functions
Really annoyed at this purchase! It is my fault that I bought the wrong version (I found TUAWs article which showed images of the iPad version but linked to the iPhone version. WTF?), but this rating is a vote against the way the developer made exactly the same program for iPhone and iPad but is charging separately. Its an identical app as far as I can tell, only scaled up for iPad (which is the one I wanted). Why should I have to buy it twice to have it on 2 devices which I own?!? Bad form on the developers part! This is a perfect example of greedy developer practices which are bad for users. As a user affected by this bad practice, Im rating 1-star.
PS - I wish the sounds played more smoothly. Listening to a progression up a scale/mode is jarring when the audio insists on pausing no matter how fast the tempo. It makes it very awkward.
What about the Half diminished and diminished scales? So sorry your font is too frilly and uncomfortable to read.
Good concept but other programs have substantially more scales. Where are the octatonic, diminished, and whole tone scales? Where are the exotic scales from hungary and asia? Until this gets more content I cant rate this higher. Get the planet waves scale app instead.
It wont let me guess the scale it brings up the choice selection but doesnt have the guess button. Waste of 2 bucks
