Reviews: What People Think About Quartet 1
QuestchenMusic
Rating: 4/5
As a jazz musician myself, the Quartet apps are so much more motivating to practice with than iReal Pro. The fact that these are REAL musicians playing these tunes is SO good; it’s basically like having the Jamey Aebersold tracks on your phone! However, I’ve noticed quite a few gripes that are preventing me from giving it a full 5 stars.
One thing that I think NEEDS to be fixed is a pretty major issue when you’re changing keys. I get that it’s basically putting a pitch shifter on the recording, but why do the drums have to be pitch shifted as well? That alone makes the tracks sound really tinny as you go to a “higher” key than the original and that should not be happening (iReal does not have this issue).
Also, I personally think the prices of exporting the track stems is a bit much…especially after already paying for the apps themselves. I do understand the distribution licensing, but I feel that we should be able to export at least the tracks without the soloist in the quartet for personal use. Other than that, AMAZING apps, these are definitely replacing iReal as a practice tool for me!

This would be a five star APP were it not for one issue-the turnarounds in some tunes. Listen to All The Things You are for example. Between looped choruses, the piano player fails to play either a 5 chord or a 2 5 that brings you to the next chorus. This is an unfortunate defect that occurs on the number of tunes. This is a truly unfortunate and ruins would be would be always perfect rhythm section performances. What would also be nice would be the ability to control the volume of each instrument. But I imagine through the garage band app that that is ultimately achievable.

Okay. The app is good. Definitely worth the price. Ia couple of things. First, repeats of a section are carbon copies. The fills and things are cool and sound good, but you’re going to hear the same parts if you have multiple choruses.
But the big issue for me is endings. I was so excited when it said endings, but so far in my exploring I have found 0 actual endings. No new chord progression, no synchronized rhythms or hits, no piano riffs. Every song’s ending is just a hung chord. It sounds very awkward on some of them. Too bad.
Still, it’s worth picking up. Feel is good. The organization is good. Took me a while to find the different combos but they switch seemlessly. As far as I can tell, they are not different arrangements, just subtractive arranging. To be fair, I haven’t explored it fully, but that’s my 2c.
