Capo - Learn Music by Ear

4.6 • 50 Ratings

Screenshots

Learn your favorite songs without tabs or sheet music. Whether you play for the world or yourself, all musicians need a good ear for harmony, melody, and rhythm. Using the songs in your music collection, Capo guesses the beats, chords, and key of songs to help you break them down to their individual parts. Capo’s unique technology helps you to learn your favorites quickly as you improve your ear along the way. Capo is simple and yet so, so good, even the professionals use it: “Capo is AMAZING!!! Very clutch. Especially when parts are kinda tough in the mix that I can’t make out easily. With other apps you lose quality, this still sounds correct.” - Omar Edwards: Keyboardist/Music Director for Jay-Z, Rihanna, Kanye West, Eminem, and more “When I sat down and started using Capo for the first time, I was amazed at how big a punch this little app packs! It's intuitive, convenient, and high-quality.” - Rebecca Lovell: Lead Vocals, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Mandolin, Piano for Larkin Poe (Read more at capoapp.com/testimonials) *** HEAR THE SONG *** Slow down playback, scrub to hear specific notes, and easily create regions that loop as you learn to play the tricky parts. Use Capo’s tools to isolate specific instruments and even vocals to learn any part of a song. With a couple simple switches, you can focus on the piano or eliminate everything to practice the guitar solo and make transcription easier. *** BREAK IT DOWN *** Capo automatically detects chords, beats, and the key of songs to get you started. Change, add, or remove the detected chords easily with a few taps as you identify alternate chords and voicings. Use Capo's structure song view to edit Capo's beat grid for songs with changing, or uncommon time signatures. *** PAUSE THE SESSION (PRO) *** With an active subscription, Capo saves the loop regions you set, chord changes, and even the playback position into Projects. Learn songs at your own pace and revisit them on all your devices using iCloud. *** SO MUCH MORE *** * Transpose songs to different keys * Rename regions to keep organized * Beat detection estimates the tempo and helps snap regions * Edit chords one at a time or globally * Display chord diagrams for Guitar, Banjo, Mandolin, Ukulele, Bass, and now Piano * Rock on southpaws! Capo has a left-handed chord box option * Five different metronome sounds * Learn more about Capo touch Pro below! **NOTE**: Capo works with music you own, but cannot access streaming tracks from Apple Music, Spotify, etc. * If you don’t own a particular track, Capo makes it simple to buy a DRM-free copy on the iTunes Store *** GO PRO *** Without an active subscription, Capo touch will not save your edits to the chords, beats, regions, markers, or sections in your Projects.

What’s New
This update contains bug fixes and improvements based on user feedback and crash submissions. # Enhancements * You can now replace chords with their enharmonic equivalent. For example, an Eb can now be replaced with a D#. Please note: Your changes may not apply when a project is transposed to another key. See the blog for a technical explanation of the issue. # Bug Fixes * We resolved a handful of reported crashes that were triggered by incorrect logic that led to excessive layout in the PRACTICE song view. * When Capo is left playing in the background, it now generates far less CPU activity. We love hearing from our customers, so please leave a review on the App Store to share your positive experiences with others, or send us a support email if you have any questions for us. We're listening, and appreciate all your bug reports and feedback!

    Not authorizing
    I purchased the app years ago. It’s good. Couldn’t detect chords well for some of my jazz compositions that brought me to Berklee. I liked it for practicing and quickly getting pop chords. I just revived my iPad. The App Store showed it ready for download. I had not used the app in a few years, but saw it in my purchases. But now is asking me to get a subscription, it won’t re-authorize my purchase. Got it from App Store Thank you for your help Show more

    Simply Outstanding
    I’ve been a user of this for years now. Can’t imagine doing without it so they better keep supporting this thing. If I need to subscribe , I’ll subscribe. It’s that good. For someone as musically challenged as I am, this is the only thing that gives me hope of learning new tunes. I can transcribe Warp speed Chris Thile solos and catch every note. Can’t play it that fast but hey, I got it transcribed. Tremendous power to manipulate the songs to your comfort level and to isolate the part you want to work on. And all on my phone. Thanks very much folks. Show more

    Stellar App
    Papers extraordinarily is full for anybody who has written and recorded something and wants to find out how they played it previously or just to learn other songs by other people that you have no idea how it is written. I find Capo to be most useful when writing songs when i am spitballing and am just freely improvising chord progressions and want to know what i played. It would be nice to have a monthly fee option as well Perhaps $1.99 - $2.99/mo. Show more

    Doesn’t work as advertised
    I got this app to learn popular songs, but it only works with audio files on your device, not syncable with streaming services. Disappointed, but at least I didn’t pay to find that out. Show more

    iPhone and iPad are different.
    Have this app on my iPhone and iPad. The iPhone seems to upload more songs and albums from my music library, though the music library on my iPad is the same as the iPhone. Show more

    Can’t stand subscriptions
    I am pretty sure I paid for this at some point, I have the desktop version as well. I certainly don't mind paying for upgrades when new features are released. But removing functionality and putting it behind a subscription model is one way for sure to lose me as a customer. I am thinking that is what has happened here. I went to see if I could rescan a song I did a long time ago (it did a poor job the first time around) and it warned me that I would lose the saved changes unless I subscribed… OK, time to look for something else that can do this trick. I only use it very rarely to try to figure out chord progressions on my own songs that I recorded long ago and forgot to document, so I can always just do a little more work and NOT pay a crazy subscription. Oh well. Show more
