Fantastic app

This is way ahead of any comparable apps. Choice of instruments, chords, rhythms, arpeggios, chord inversions, slash chords... Great for composing, trying out progressions or alternative chords - or creating backing tracks. It’s very versatile with a little ingenuity and creativity (or happy accidents! There are a few limitations (would like to see at least one more octave for bass notes for example) but otherwise brilliant. I’m disappointed that it appears there won’t be any further development of this wonderful app.

Is just very usefull

It's a great app to search for chord progressions on theway... could be cool to have something like pads, choose some chords and play with the pads the convinations. But well its still amazing like it is right now

Excellent!

Update: I haven’t been returning to this app lately. What holds me back is the menu based UI system.
Even now, there are a lot of great elements to this app, the UI is just too clunky to maneuver.

**************
I’ve been using Chordbot for years.

It is user friendly and is the simplest way to create backing tracks. There are a good amount of styles to choose from. I appreciate the way you get to choose chords; how they’re highlighted according to suitability.

This has easily been my best app purchase.

Would love it if you would implement dark mode.
