This used to be a great app, until Yamaha nerfed it recently!
The previous version of Yamaha Chord Tracker allowed a device’s microphone to listen to music in real-time and identified the notes/chords being heard, even allowing for capo adjustments to see how best to play a song. Their most recent update removed this feature, so now it is only useful to identify songs you own, loaded into the app in MP3/4 format, although some users are reporting they can’t even get this feature to work now. Super disappointing, Yamaha, please bring back the chord identifier/analysis functionality, if you are indeed truly interested in helping guitar players improve their playing skills! Right now, I’m considering deleting this app to make space for better and more useful ones.

Disappointing!
I just downloaded this app with some hope to be able to hear the different instruments on selected songs. I understand copyright but the selection of songs that popped up was short of nothing. And those that did pop-up would not even play. Very disappointed in this app. Not even worth it being in the App Store.

Not possible to load local files
I have several audio files on my iPad I wanted to transcribe, but there is no easy way to load them. This app only supports loading from DropBox or Music collection. Other apps support loading local files. In my opinion all Yamaha products have terrible user interface, either hardware or software.
Doesn’t Work
App doesn’t see the hundreds of MP3’s on my device. Useless. Just wants to collect song data and nothing in its user materials or manual describes use of Dropbox, which is apparently the only way you can x-fer music to the app. Lame.
