    Brilliant idea! Awesome app, but...
    There's one mistake I found: A major has 3 sharps, F#, C#, AND B#! You forgot the B#! So please fix!!

    Wow! What a great writing tool!
    I'm right now sitting in my room experimenting with chord combos & melody ideas on my iPhone! I thought I'd have to spend 3 years getting a music theory degree to understand half of what this app does, bit now that it lets me hear it, I can use it to study & finally understand what all the jazz masters were doing. Weather your a natural at creating music or are in school to learn arrangement, this will ne an invaluable tool! The buttons are occasionably hard to hit, prob more so if u have big hands (I don't) as one reviewer mentioned. I don't know how you'd fit everything to one screen if it was done differently. Despite this I find myself amazed with the new update. Show more

    Great Reference Tool
    If you are looking for a great reference tool for the piano, this is it. It provides enough scales and chords to keep you busy learning for hours. I set my Itouch on my piano, choose the scale and start practicing, much easier than using a book or trying to figure out the scales on my own. Every bit worth $2.99. Show more

    Such a great concept, but
    Scott, I do hope you read these reviews, and take this one as constructive criticism: the idea for this app is brilliant and is something I've been waiting for, but the interface is virtually unusable in its current iteration for anyone that has fingers that are average to bigger size. My fingers are average, and I find this app such a chore to use. I do not exaggerate when I say that it took me no less than 10 tries to hit the question mark and i button. Just awful. And I'm constantly hitting the wrong buttons in the app otherwise. I love the idea of this app. Please improve the UI. Show more

    Getting better
    With the addition of piano sound, this is a great addtion to my attempt teach myself theory. My only issue with this app is that my fingers are to big to fit one key at a time. Outside of that design I look forward to this being a major tool. Show more

    Circle of fifths
    Great app but the circle of fifths traverse feature isn't working correctly. Its telling me that C major = F Major unless I'm totally mistaken it's suppose to be C major = A Minor. PLEASE FIX IT!!! Other than that it's the perfect app for my needs. Will promote. Keep developing it. ;) Show more

    Good app
    This is worth the money. It is a good reference tool for sure. Get and you will enjoy.

    Respectable app for serious musicians!
    This is a solid app. I did not expect to get as much information from this app as I did. Very inclusive. This works great for theory or composition classes. There isn't anything bad to say about it. I think this app would be even better if it played the scales and chords for you. That would be great for practicing ear training. I would also like to see some common chord progressions. Awesome app and worth the money spent. Show more

    Octavian
    This app is really helping me in my music theory class!! It's everything you need! It needs a feature tht allows you hear the scale though. Perhaps in an update? Show more

    EXCELENT Reference
    Octavian is a very handy keyboard chord/scale reference that is perfect for the studio - quickly look up a chord/scale without stopping your workflow with the convenience of the iPhone/iTouch small footprint. App is quick, easy, and very hand for musicans of all calibre. Show more

    A must download now app!
    Totally freakn cool that someone devised a scale/chord app for keyboard players. Haven't found any problems with any scales yet so I am assuming its accurate. This is an absolute no brainer to download. Best 3 bucks I ever spent. Show more
