Appmuse

There’s very limited features for this. There’s not even a basic piano sound. Also the app pops and clicks when I play sounds

I use this app for intonation purposes and it’s really useful for that! However I think it would be much improved if you could implement accidentals easier, (I.e. A7#5) as opposed to chords which are strictly diatonic. Also if the app could loop while the phone is locked that would help me not kill my battery life while practicing. I mainly have been using it for a drone with a metronome so I can’t speak much on the recording functions, but they seem relatively intuitive, especially if you’re new to understanding harmony. It’s cool to be able to visually pair chords with extensions and not have to worry about intervals. I used to use other apps to drone chords but honestly this one is quick and super simple to use, once the app is open you can immediately start, it’s not like it has a long loading time or anything.

I saw a review with this app not working for the iPhone X and the developer said he fixed it but I still can’t see the names of the cords due to the camera in the way. And also their need to be a feature in this app we’re you can use the piano cords instead of the names of the cords. Thank you for your time. Show more

It’s really good but it needs some work, some of the submenus are not visible because of the way iPhone 11 designed the screen, it cuts out, also the looping part doesn’t let to be adjusted, there’s glitches of dragging the chord and not seeing it properly but playing it! Show more

Can’t use the whole tone scale. Limited expression

First of all, this is immediately one of my favorite chord progression sandboxes. Don’t get me wrong. The fact that it integrates with the minimoog Model D synth app to play the notes and supports Ableton/MIDI output is extremely exciting. However, there are some significant missing features that I’d expect from an app claiming to take on the scope that it does such as a metronome, a record button, and setting the timing signature. It’s hard to tell how the chord progression will sound until you’ve already dragged the chords to the odd/uncomfortable band at the top of the screen... would honestly be easier to just record it. It’s like the length in bars is too flexible... let me pick the timing signature (e.g. 3/4) and a fixed number of bars for the loop. Really, I think the UX needs to be rethought a bit and some basic features for recording a track need to be added. With refinement, this could be the best songwriting tool an EDM songwriter could have... right now it feels like more of an open beta. Disappointing to spend $9 on what feels like an unfinished product but I would gladly invest more if the developer(s) stay active. Show more

Except for persistent audio issues. Just installed on fully updated iPad Pro 11 inch, and having issues where there’s no audio until I restart my iPad, which it still happens eventually afterwards. Also synth bass causing a loud pop at beginning of note and then cutting sound. If it weren’t for these major audio issues it would be great. Show more

Ive been messing with this for a few weeks and i liked it. Its nice for some basic ideas if im bored ill just mess around with some chords for inspiration. But a couple of days ago i opened the app and went to hit a chord and my ears got straight EXPLODED I dont know why but the sounds are all messed up and it just blasts random noise super loud. I tried to reinstall and its the same thing. Ill never make a mediocre lo-fi chill step album at this rate smh. Show more

Since I’ve now I had the app for only 2 days, I have not gone a single time without experiencing buggy issues. The app crashes when being used, plays distorted tones and overall has a frustrating to use operation system. I love the overall concept but would hate to see other people’s hard earned money go down the drain when having the same technical issues I had after spending a hardy $8.99 for an app that seems as if it’s in an early stage of production.

Needs MIDI out for other iOS apps! This great, very fun and inspiring, needs much better inter app midi implementation, especially a way to sync the transport!

Great app for getting initial ideas. It’s almost a fully functioning DAW! I just wish it had more scales. It only has the fundamental ones. Seems like an easy update to this great app. Also, the note names don’t fit on the iPhone X screen. Please fix! Show more

I like it but I wish could select chords from different keys. If I change the key, it changes the keys of the chords in my composition.

The app is cool. Was hoping that they could at least allow to change SCALES!!!!! Maby next update? I’m going to give you guys 5 stars for now. But if I don’t see an option to change scales soon this opinion of mine will probably change. Other than that great job it’s really cool. I just thought that would of been something that you guys would of done from the very beginning. Show more

Great app, but I want some more features like using other chords. For an example, using Fm chord in C major project.

This app was the worst $10.00 I have ever spent. It will make me feel better if this review STOPS someone else from buying this terrible application. It does not function at all like the tutorial/ad video made it seem. You cannot change the rhythm of your chord progressions, the sounds are crap and it is glitchy. DO NOT BUY Show more

I downloaded this a few minutes ago, and the app has plenty of tools and options but it keeps crashing. My phone is up to date so I will update this review again later. Show more

Seemed like a great idea, I could start a session anywhere and finish up at my main workstation but upon opening the app I had no piano, Rhodes or and anything that resembled a key played instrument, there where only pads and synths available... not very good sounds to find chords and chord progressions. Didn’t bother going any further than that. Refund please. And if there in there somewhere buried they are way to hard to find and still, ima need my 10 spot back g lol.. Show more

I love this app but there should be a way to use borrowed chords in a chord progression.

Created my first tune, sounded good but then I closed the app. On reopening it I noticed glitches on playback. Now the app crashes on opening and is unusable. This is a good app that I would like to use but it needs to be more stable. Please fix. Show more

Can you please make a mode where you can free play on the chord chart. At the moment. Every time you press a chord you have to press it again to be able to hear it again Show more
