Great App for teaching music

I just found this app today as I was working on planning some music lessons. I wanted an app that would generate random rhythms for my students to read rather than just using flash cards. It does that, and I can customize the difficulty of the rhythms. They can be syncopated or not, and use a variety of rhythms. It also can switch between 3/4 and 4/4. After looking at the other things the app can do as well I’m really excited to implement some of them into my other music lessons!!

Great random generator!

Creates random notes, rhythms, words with musical letters, scales, and intervals! If you're looking for a music random generator, it works great!
