GuitAfrica

This app takes you to a guitar voyage across Africa!

gives you terrific compositions with ability to mute guitar and bass, drum and click, modify pitch tempo with real recordings with great feel. Totally cool learning and jamming. A must for bassist or guitarist who wants to expand his groove and chops. The composer has the goods, so does the app company (real book pro) SO GOOD

I just got this app today and have been pouring over it. Absolutely fantastic app. Lionel Loueke is one of the greatest guitarists/musicians alive and his bassist, Massimo Bialcati, is a great app designer as well as a great bassist. I was at a club hearing them a few years ago and Lionel said, "Massimo has a new app you should check out." It was IRealBook which is one of the best apps ever and has evolved beautifully. This app shows the same level of care. The tunes are gorgeous and span a vast range of African countries and styles. The ability to mute and solo whatever parts you want as well as loop and slow down any section makes learning much easier. What a fantastic treasure trove of tunes and styles there are here. I've never seen a better learning tool for African Guitar (though there is a cool book with midi files called African Guitar styles I think that's pretty great, too). Having audiobus so you can record and rearrange the tunes any way you want is fantastic. So many possibilities. I'm looking forward to many happy hours and much learning with this app.
