### 1/5 — Thought it was a diamond, was just coal.

*2023-02-24*

First off, I believe I am the first person to ever purchase this app and let me tell you, it is clear to see why, hopefully I’m the last person stupid enough to buy this. Let me start off by saying this app cost far to much and makes the illusion of being promising, yet the first thing you see when you open it, is an interface that is so unintuitive and fiddly to the user. What’s even worse is the explanation given of how to navigate the thing, when read you’ll find an incredibly simple spelling error, I’ll be it it was just one, but it was some word like “the” misspelled to “thi” It was simply enough to show me that was no care put into this abomination and gave me a terrible first impression. Not to mention the backing tracks, honestly don’t bother, it’s nothing you can’t find on YouTube for free. Most backing tracks are very simple, unappealing blues to be dead honest. All in all I though I found a diamond, but it was just coal.

### 1/5 — A GOOD IDEA POORLY EXECUTED

*2021-06-03, version 5.4.2*

Being a fan of backing tracks creation software, I thought I’d give this a go. It looks promising on the YouTube videos but in practice it falls far short. The work flow is cumbersome. Only major and minor chords can be entered. Chords cannot play for less than a whole bar length.
The app crashed repeatedly. It randomly changed cords that I had entered to a different one.
At the price being charged this is a total rip off.
A shame since some of the backing track style files did sound quite promising.
Avoid…avoid…avoid.

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed

*2021-02-26, version 5.4.2*

The app is unstable and not user friendly at all. The guidance on You tube is out of date and I would like my money back but no doubt if that is not possible

### 3/5 — Unstable

*2021-01-09, version 5.4.2*

Conceptually a good idea with plenty of instruments/tracks to use, and a decent degree of flexibility to create background tracks. Stability is an isuue (Mac) with App often closing and then you lose previous work, so wasted time. Despite YouTube videos a few more detailed guidance notes on screen would be useful.

### 1/5 — SCAM ALERY. LIARS SAY 4+ rating. Can't get refund. Developer is dental company!

*2015-02-19*

This app is a shady ripoff and is a blatant marketing lie. The developer says it's rated 4+ and for 16USD - it should be. No instructions. No minor 7th chords. No tech support. Developer in a Dutch dental company that knows nothing about this disgusting app. I want a refund from these scammers. Negative 5 stars

### 1/5 — Mediocre app

*2014-10-25*

Paid w/tax $22.92, but the app is not worth the money... Maybe worth no more than $1.99.
Graphics are of low quality. 
No instructions, 
No help, 
Not able to change chord to mayor or minor key, 
No seventh chords, extended chords, altered chords, added tone chords, suspended chords,
Only one rhythm per style with no way to vary it; no swing button to create a rhythm style variety.
The "On Stage" button causes the screen to go quite dark and whe switched off, the screen stays dimmed. It is almost impossible to see the screen, so it requires to go to settings to brighten back the screen..
I MUST RECEIVE A REFUND,,
