IMHO, best & clearest way to understand and study Major and Minor scales, modes, triads, tetrachords and blues scales! It's disciplined practice from here on in.

A well designed music app. Easy and quick to use for a variety of scales. I use it for jazz, while my son uses it at Tanglewood for quick classical scale reference. Show more

Need to add jazz scales - bebop, diminish, half diminish, whole tone

Good concept but other programs have substantially more scales. Where are the octatonic, diminished, and whole tone scales? Where are the exotic scales from hungary and asia? Until this gets more content I can't rate this higher. Get the planet waves scale app instead. Show more

I Play both piano and guitar and this a big help to me when i make covers of songs and when i transpose them as well.

This app is by far the best app I've ever had to learn scales with. They perfectly show the construction, formula, and intervals of the notes of the main scales with all their modes included as well. I'd love to see more by smappsoft in music theory. Show more

Is there any way this app could have the option of picking between different clefs?

This app. is really exceptional, especially as an educational tool. I will recommend this to any aspiring musician or music teacher that use Mac platforms. The additional fee for more instruments should made clear before purchasing but it's a very small fee and well worth it. This app. is a huge time saver in trying to explain difficult music theory subjects and concepts through a well designed user interface. It is very easy to use and understand. The graphics are smooth, with nice script type that gives it a classical feel. A job well done by Smappsoft programmers! Show more

Must have app for any musician, from beginner to expert! A valuable app indeed.

It's good

Absolutely wonderful. Teaches tonality and modality in expert fashion, and I recommend for any guitar player with any amount of experience.

All the right info in one place. I was really happy to see there was an add-on for bass. I also love that you can play the notes in the scale so you can explore the sound of the mode by yourself. I love the change in layout from the keyboard to the guitar neck. I will recommend for sure. Great job! Show more

Loads better with all the latest updates. I left because in the beginning this app needed improvements. And now it's so fun! Keep the updates coming please!

Great app!!! I've played guitar for 15 years, had many lessons and this app really made so much 'click'! It's clean, comprehensive and includes notation, intervals and clear explanations. I have a screen full of scale apps and this is by far the best and most accurate. Thank you thank you!!!! Show more

I love this app. Simple and works great.

First the app just looks gorgeous. Next it does something that really sets it apart: you can play notes by directly tapping on the scales. If you are trying to write music especially in any key other than C Major get this app and try it, see if it doesn't simplify your work. Show more

Great app. However there is a hidden cost for violin and bass uses. $0.99 they should just include that in the original price tag

Simple,user friendly, a must have!!!

I have always had trouble understanding scales and modes. I literally know every mode of every scale after working with this app about 8 hours. And I'm not that smart. Thank you, thank you, thank you!' Show more

Very useful, perfect!!! I love it!!
