Rating: 5/5

This streamlined app lets you hear chords quickly, in any key. We’ll be traveling 4k miles by car this winter. We have a little travel keyboard (Yamaha PSS-A50) that we use for songwriting when we’re away from home. For us, this songwriting app will allow the non-driver to easily map out chord progressions while we’re rolling down the highway. This app would be useful in quiet spaces like coffee shops and libraries when paired with earpods/headphones. I especially like the variable piano patterns and the inclusion of the Nashville number system. The major flat seven chord (Bb major in the key of C) is helpful for times when you want the sound of an Andalusian cadence. Beginning songwriters will likely appreciate the simplicity of the app. Would be a great tool for exploring the sounds of chord progressions. Look forward to trying this out on the road. Thanks!
