Needs fixing

When I try to change the key to basic G major to look for scales it directs me back to C for some reason whether it’s by accident or on purpose. This app is broken

Writing and decoding music
musicmanENG

I use this app most when I am about to set up a score of music. The shear amount of information in this free app is incredible. I used this app on multiple occasions to figure out what key a score was written in and what type of scales were used in runs. Let me provide an example, from the movie The Terminal, the main soundtrack is written in a D minor key, and towards the end of the song the lead clarinet plays a D genus diatonicum veterum correctum (yes this is a real thing) scale pattern. Application is very helpful

Perfect for a beginner or anyone to be honest


Analysis class made easier
Wendoid

" how to notate a B9 chord with the 9th in the bass" "What chords can one make with these 5 notes? "Why does this chord resolve to this?" These ?'s and many more made easier to answer with this app. Never attempt first time analysis of a major work without it.


Not user friendly

Lots of bugs
