Fretboard Sessions is a companion app for guitarists focused on taking their playing to the next level, whether they are working with a teacher, taking a course, or studying on their own. Easily Visualize the Fretboard Instead of having to go through pages of charts and diagrams, you can quickly configure the fretboard to show you exactly what you want. Select a key, show chord tones, scales, or both, and choose to show notes or degrees on the fretboard. You can select from different tunings and even focus the fretboard on specific strings or scale degrees. Play Along With Backing Tracks
To help you get better at melodic phrasing and soloing, Fretboard Sessions comes with a library of high-quality backing tracks. There are single-chord grooves, two-chord vamps, common progressions, and more complex backing tracks with extended and non-diatonic chords. The fretboard automatically changes as the backing track plays, making it easy for you to try out different melodies and licks. Each backing track is available in all 12 keys. Practice With Exercises
When you want to review your scales, arpeggios, triads, or intervals, simply select an exercise from the Fretboard Sessions library. Each exercise has a specific focus; for example, there are separate exercises for each of the CAGED shapes. Exercises are also available in all 12 keys. Randomize Your Routine When it comes time to practice or just noodle around, it’s easy to get stuck in a rut. Tap the shuffle button or shake your iPhone to get a random backing track or exercise. You can shuffle between favorites and even get the backing track or exercise in a random key.
