RiffKit vs Stand Partner

RiffKit is the ultimate guitar chord creator – generate chords, build progressions, and now arrange them into complete songs. Whether you're a beginner learning your first chords or a songwriter chasing an idea at 2am, RiffKit helps you find the perfect voicings, hear them played back, and turn a spark into a finished structure. BUILD FULL SONGS — NEW Song Mode turns your progressions into actual songs. Add sections like intro, verse and chorus, drop chords in as building blocks, and set exactly how long each one rings — a whole bar or a single beat. Loop a section while you work it out, repeat lines, then play the whole thing top to bottom. EXPLORE EVERY MOOD Choose from curated presets — Sad, Jazz, Dreamy, Neo-Soul, Pop, Rock and more — to instantly set the vibe and discover chords that match. FIND YOUR VOICING Every chord comes with multiple voicings up and down the neck. Flip through them, hear each one, and pick the shape that fits your song. SEE IT AS TABS View your entire song as clean guitar tabs, section by section. Export to text to share anywhere, or export MIDI and keep producing in GarageBand, Logic or your DAW of choice. MAKE IT SOUND LIKE YOU Eight guitar sounds, from warm nylon and steel to crunchy overdrive and full distortion. Every song remembers its own sound, tempo, key and playback style — strummed, arpeggiated or fingerpicked. GO BEYOND THE BASICS Explore chord types you didn't know existed — from add9 and sus4 to maj7 and dim. RiffKit shows you voicings across every position on the fretboard.

Record a take on any instrument, or sing one, and the app draws it out note by note: the pitch of each one, how far it sat from centre, and where the pulse pushed or dragged. And the Score tab is a music stand: put your part on it and read it full screen, mark it up, and play from it. WHAT IS IN IT • Tuner: a fast, steady chromatic tuner for any instrument or voice, with the A adjustable from 400 to 450 Hz. • Record: a count-in, a take, and a review of every note in it. Takes are kept the moment they finish. • Score: photograph your part, or import a PDF or MusicXML, and read it full screen. Turn pages with a tap, a swipe or a pedal, half a page at a time if you like, or let them turn by themselves; lock the page for a performance. Annotate with a pencil or a finger — nibs, widths, colours, lasso, undo — and transpose an engraved part to any key. Record a take without leaving the page. • Coach: what has improved since the last take, and what has not. • Metronome: subdivisions, accents, tempo ramps. • Library: every take and every score, in folders and setlists. FOR EVERY INSTRUMENT Strings, winds, brass, voice, piano: if it plays a pitch, Stand Partner can hear it. Choose your instrument once and the tuner, the ranges and the review fit it. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR DEVICE There is no account, no server, and no analytics. Recordings, photographs of your music and everything the app works out from them are stored on this device only. After the app has loaded it makes no network requests at all. The app is open source, so that claim can be checked.
