Guitar Cycles App vs Octal

Guitar Cycles walks you through the guitar's harmonic cycles: a visual, systematic way to explore chord voicings, inversions across the entire fretboard, instead of memorizing shapes in isolation. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Explore the harmonic cycles of any key and see how chords transform as you move across the neck • Generate voicings (Drop 2, Drop 3, Drop 2&4, Drop 2&3, and more) with an engine that calculates playable fingerings • View every chord on a clear fretboard diagram, with notes highlighted • Study offline, anywhere WHO IT'S FOR Built for guitarists who want to understand how chords actually move across the fretboard, whether you're just discovering theory or you teach and need ready-made visual material. No account required, no ads interrupting your practice. Terms of Use: https://www.guitarcycles.com/tos.ios.html Privacy Policy: https://www.guitarcycles.com/privacy.ios.html

Octal turns your phone into an instrument. The eight buttons play chords or notes that always go together, so whatever you press sounds like music. The bead under your other thumb changes their mood or behavior as you play. MAKE A LOOP Press record and play a few bars. Open the wheel, pick drums or a bass, and play over the top. Swipe over to the Loop Deck to see your loop and change it bar by bar. TURN LOOPS INTO A SONG Pinch the Loop Deck and chain your loops into a song. SOUNDS Synths, keys, drum kits, textures and acoustic instruments, a tap away on the wheel. NEVER LOSE AN EDIT Every edit is kept. The history tool lets you wind back to any of them. SHARE IT Send the mix as an audio file, or send the loop or song itself to a friend who has Octal. Making music in Octal is free, with four saved loops and one song. THE FULL VERSION One purchase, no subscription. MIDI and stems to finish your song in a DAW, MIDI out to play other synths, the bead lab to make and keep sounds of your own, and as many loops and songs as you like. PRIVACY Octal collects no data. The microphone is only on while you record a sound or play a Vocoder.
