Lock/unlock button in main screen to disable or enable fretboard scrolling. Advantages of disabled scrolling: 1. Taps are not missed because of unintentional dragging. 2. The tap sound is produced on touch down instead of touch up. This works best while trying a bass line or scale in practice mode.

Description of Bass Sight Reading Trainer

Sight-reading skills open the door to reading written music and familiarizing yourself with various music styles. Sight-reading is not a daunting task, and with sufficient practice, anyone can develop this valuable skill. Our app is designed to help you quickly identify notes across every part of the fretboard, with a special focus on positional playing. By enhancing your sight-reading abilities, you'll find it easier to focus on other musical aspects like harmony and rhythm. Features: PRACTICE & TEST MODE - Four different modes of use: 1. Locate notes on the fretboard based on the notes in staff. 2. Locate notes on the fretboard based on note name and pitch. 3. Find the names of notes on the staff (without the fretboard) 4. Identify the names of notes presented on the fretboard. - Automatic detection of problematic notes. KEY SIGNATURES & SCALES - Key signature support, from 1 to 6 sharps or 1 to 6 flats. - Automatic selection of the enharmonic notes for each scale to prevent double sharps or double flats in the key signature. - Scales include major, minor, melodic minor, harmonic minor, blues, pentatonic, and all modal scales. FRETS, STRINGS & NOTE SELECTION - Support for 4, 5 and 6 string bass guitars. - Frets are grouped to limit the number of notes to practice and test. - Predefined fret groups, e.g., 0-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10-12, 0-12, 13-17, etc. - You can define custom fret groups. - The highlighted fret group is displayed on the fretboard. - Your sight-reading progress is tracked per fret group. - The longest streak record per fret group measures your sight-reading accuracy. - You can select specific strings for the highlighted area. - Test notes can be limited to naturals or notes from a selected scale. READ AHEAD - Reading ahead is a crucial skill for effective sight-reading. - You can adjust the number of notes to read ahead. OTHER - Several alternate tunings are available for 4, 5, and 6-string bass guitars. - Optional extra treble clef for iPad. - Support for left-handed bass guitars. - Option to display the fretboard in perspective (in landscape mode). - A universal app compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. - Supports all screen sizes. - No ads or in-app purchases. - Dark mode support (iOS 13+). - Tested on iOS and iPadOS 17.

Reviews of Bass Sight Reading Trainer

  • Great Sight Reading Trainer

    I truly enjoy this tool. As someone who’s coming to bass from keyboards and drums this tool has been exceptionally helpful in drilling sight reading for the bass fretboard.
  • I actually use the app regularly

    I’m using this app now to learn the first 5 frets one string at a time. Illuminates small sections of the bass clef.
  • Not worth the money

    The functionality on this app is extremely limited. Should be .99 max. Definitely not worth the current price. There are free apps that do what this app does plus much more. Avoid.
