  • Fantastic tool

    I learned a lot from this, and all it really took was a repeating backing track and some diagrams.

    Astonished at how effective of a learning tool this can be if used with diligence and some extra reading.

    Heck, it's a pretty good toy as well, if that's all you want.
  • Five stars!

    I'm old - 61 - been playing forever, a strummer, G-D-A all night long. Always wanted to be able to play leads. I have a pretty good ear, wanted to know how to play a lead in a given key. I get together a couple of times a year to play with friends. I took lessons for one year about 2 years ago, didn't learn much. Then I found this app. I know it's trite to say it took my playing to a whole new level but it's true. In 40+ years of playing, this is the single biggest difference-maker in my playing. I got together with my buddies in March to jam and on every song, I'd hit the foot switch on my Marshall and play a lead on my Les Paul. They really were astonished. They kept laughing & giving me crap - "Who ARE you??" They just couldn't believe it. I ended every song by shouting, "Jam Tracks - $4.99!" 😀 Everyone learns differently, I get that. I call this the chimpanzee method - big dots to show you where to put your fingers. It's so simple. Now I hear a song I like, I just slide up the low E string til I hear the root note & go from there. It has boosted my playing enjoyment by 10,000%. I friggin love this app.

  • Very basic

    Would be much improved if it had a simple tempo slider bar. Seems like an easy program to write. As is, the app user has zero control over tempos. Additionally, the base app is pretty bare bones. Many of the 'additional charges' should be included in the base price. Not a great value. They have my money but I'm going to have to keep looking for what I need.

  • A Must Have

    This is a very good, useful, and functional app for musicians at every level. I have recommended it to players I help out on guitar and it's working for them as well. If you don't get anything you can use when you open this app, please don't blame the app.
  • well worth the money

    This has been a really fun way to learn scales. It's easy to pick up at odd times during the day, and rewards sustained practice too. For the price you can hardly go wrong.
  • Best for intermediate players to build your chops.

    Great jams to practice major, minor, and mixed pentatonic licks. Good for trying variations on a theme and see how well they work in major and minor keys. Intermediate players with working knowledge of above will likely benefit the most from this app.
  • Almost nailed it.

    Key being ALMOST! I really liked this app as I was getting into improvising a lot of blues. Super useful for that purpose. But a couple things would make this an easy 5 stars.... First, needs to have a variable tempo feature. When learning new stuff it's super beneficial to be able to start slow and speed up as you improve. This app has songs at different tempos but if you want to play a medium tempo Texas blues jam you are out of luck. It's either really fast or really slow. Most of the "styles" are set up the same. Also the are no flats or sharps in regards to key selection. Not that big of a deal but wanted to mention it. I still like the app and recommend for those just looking to practice lead but give me tempo control and I would LOVE this app. Heck I would pay for that feature. As is I'm still on the hunt for the "perfect app".

  • Kills battery

    App seems good for rock and blues practice.

    After I launched the app once I noticed my batter died very fast. I went to the batter settings, and discovered that after a single use, and one day in the background, Jam Tracks represented 46% of total battery usage for the last 7 days.

    No idea what the app is doing, but I hope it is a serious bug rather than nefarious background snooping.

  • Spice for practice

    Enjoy using this and their drum app to spice up practice sessions. Hope they will expand the number of tracks available on this one as you run thru the options pretty quick. That said, like the fact that it lists the chords and scales that match the backing track. This is a great start which I hope they will build upon!
