![]() But, I'm only using it as a practice tool, not to generate something "realistic" sounding to use on a gig. I think I paid for the upgrade once, but the times I've tried to activate the real tracks (instead of the General MIDI defaults) it didn't work, so I've never used them. BIAB has RealTracks, which are sample based, but they are (or used to be) an extra charge. In each recording it displays the scale(s) most commonly used. 1 SoundCloud (iOS & Android) 2 GarageBand (iOS) 3 iReal Pro (iOS) 4 Reason Compact. It is possible to change the key signature to gain practice in all 12 major and minor keys. The audio quality on both of them is pretty.lounge. It is really easy to use and it nurtures fun into practice. It is more expensive than iReal, but for shedding on tunes it's by far my favorite. 5 Use YouTube (etc.) to listen to the bass lines, then use iReal Pro to practice with. The player randomises the notes and rhythms so what you see in a midi file will not be what you actually hear the next time you press play. The UI is very Windows 98 and his its own quirks, but being able to access it via a proper keyboard and mouse, and the much larger screen real estate make it a lot more usable for me. 4 Export the midi file to a notation app and use the bass track notation to study or practice sight-reading. Their ideas of groove names, and the variety of grooves is.weird.īand-In-Box is my favorite for practicing with at home. If you're just downloading existing charts, it's fine-if you're trying to create your own charts, and the tune has any arrangement twists, it's a pain in the ass. iReal Pro simulates a real-sounding band that can accompany you as you practice, and also lets you collect chord charts of your favorite songs for reference. For me it's downside is the user interface, which is clumsy and non-intuitive to me, ever after using it for a year or so. iReal Pro offers an easy-to-use tool to help musicians of all levels master their art. IReal Pro's advantage is that you can run it on a tablet, so you can use it for charts on a gig (this is super common in Seattle jazz gigs), and since so many other people are using it, you can mail each other charts in a common format. I do have and use iReal Pro, both the desktop and mobile version, and Band-In-Box. ![]()
