TONAL MAPPING IS ODDLY FAMILIAR
I've been studying out similar ways of looking at the chromatic universe. Studied the entire sequence of harmony at Berklee many years ago, and consider myself a lifelong student of harmony. It is a never-ending endeavor.
I'm also a painter who uses limited palettes of color. The parallels are amazing. Tonal Mapping is very close to Gamut Masking of the 12 hue color wheel.
Being an artist of multiple disciplines (writing/poetry is the other) is helped when you can connect the dots. When I found this app, I found someone else who is mapping tonality. Almost like there's a Camaraderie or a Jazz Harmony brotherhood. Great app!

Great
Very useful. I certainly recommend this app for students and teachers as well. The concept is amazing. Love the circle of fifths graphs and how modes are found by turning the graph around.
The best feature is the use of patterns to create exercises for any scale or mode.
I would really like the developer to add the main chord playing in the background while I practice. That would make this app the best ever. Please?

Wonderful
This is an incredible app to practice scales, modes and patterns. The approach-notes concept is a really nice feature if you are a Jazz player as me.
I suggest watching the tutorials and the demos on how to use the app if you want to take full advantage of all the cool things this app has to offer, like browsing modes, symmetry, finding upper structures, etc.
Well done!
Thanks.

Not for guitar
Given the impression it was for guitar players off adds I will be asking for a refund π‘πΈπΈπΈπΈπΈ
Response from developer
Fixed! Thanks for your feedback. We have upgraded the UI to make it more user friendly now with guitar fretboard and guitar tabs. Please download the new version.
App crashes
I just bought this app I was able to open it once but now when I open it it automatically crashes it is very frustrating I hope they can fix this bug.
Missing Something...
This is a great app for educational purposes, but I fell that, to make it even better, there should be a quiz/test feature or something interactive to help you learn more.
Fantastic app
This app has become an indispensable learning and teaching tool for myself as well as all of my colleagues. Tessitura is something that every professional and aspiring musician should own and reference. It is not often that you find a resource that deals with this type of material in such an indepth and informed manner. The material is presented in this app is presented in a clear concise and easy to understand manner. Great app!

Seems comprehensive, but unintuitive.
There's seemingly a lot of information packed into this app. However, it's confusing, unintuitive, unattractive, and most importantly lacks ANY kind of tutorial, instructions, or overlay, explaining the features and functions.
What are we supposed to do? Just tap on everything we see until we figure out how it all works? Even the preview movie (in the App Store) is confusing.
This is a lazy, horrible approach to app design. I purchased this app, expecting there to be an in-app tutorial. Boy, was I wrong.
Buyer beware!

Curiosity!
I love this app! You can find all the music shapes within a scale or chord and play with it! I'm still finding new ways to use Tessitura Pro!!
