Regardless of whether you are a piano, keyboard, guitar or bass player, this app is for you. You are in the drivers seat.

The app can be use for many purposes. It will help you, if you are a music composer. It can be you best friend, if you are looking to find out, why chord-progressions sound the way the do.

Experimenting with this app will most likely boost you playing in many ways, and if you are a beginner, this app offers the ultimate training partner. By learning the relationships between the different chord types, you'll be able to invent your own training exercises, and at the same time have a clear understanding of why it sounds the way it does, and how it can be used in you song-writing.

The app knows 25 chords. Yes, it sounds overwhelming, and it is. And that is why the app allows you to select which subset of chords to use in your composing. And if you then add some melody tuning restrictions that means that your music spans both tension and release movement, then you could actually end up in a situation where there are only a very few chord progression possibilities left. But don't worry. This app will help you, finding the ways of your music.

This app focuses on stacking chords and notes, one after the other, in a sequence, without having to confine the selection to match a specific melody-note.

If you instead are looking for the perfect accompaniment to a melody that you have already composed, you might wanna have a look at another app available on App Store, called Ways of Music. Same chords-set, same understanding of music, but takes off from an initially entered melody.
