  • Learn scales for piano and guitar

    Heard about this app on the MTJC podcast. Switching from guitar to bass on worship team, and finding that I need to learn scales in order to play something other than root notes. This app is a nice tool for practicing these scales.
  • Great but...

    Love the app but it would be great if we could change key within a mode without having to go out, select a new key, then select the mode once again. For this reason I don't use it as much as I'd want to and find myself looking for other alternatives. Shame because, apart from that, it's great idea.
  • Useful App, some suggestions for updates

    The explanations regarding music theory or easy to understand. I am a guitar player of 12 years that is currently learning the violin. Since there are no frets, playing along with the audio for scales is amazingly helpful.

    One major improvement that would help: add scales that have 2 and 3 full octaves so that we can utilize the entire range of the music bar and our instrument.

  • Help

    It won't let me guess the scale it brings up the choice selection but doesn't have the guess button. Waste of 2 bucks
  • Perfect to memorize scales

    This app is awesome. It's perfect for beginners to learn and memorize the notes of violin scales and it's sound.
  • Champion modes/scales app, plus quiz

    Many other apps give you some but not all the features found here. Selectable root, notation of scales toned, highlight of scale on keyboard and guitar fretboard (multiple positions), covers the principle scale types and their modes (major, minor (natural, melodic, harmonic), pentatonic (maj/min), Blues), only obvious omissions are the Augmented and Diminished scales. Best of all, you can test your progress with the inbuilt quiz, to identify a scale by either its notated form, or aurally from playback of the scale, or both, starting from user-selectable root-notes.

  • Hello Smappsoft!

    Love the app!! I have a suggestion:

    Can you add in an option to start each scale on a random pitch during the quiz? This would be better aural training since it would keep our mind from having the same tonal memory for two or more scales in a row. Thanks!!
  • Expensive

    Should be more informative. Current price is too much.
  • Like

    I like it. The parchment paper look is easy on the eyes. My son likes playing the scales too. It could be expanded.
  • Awesome app

    Highly recommend for ANYONE struggling with their scales and modes or just wants to learn a couple of extra scales to try. Would love to see some more scales in there. Well done!
