Finally, a new "harmonic graph" window has been added to assist in visualizing harmonic content over time.Editor's review of AP Tuner AP Tuner takes a classic musician's instrument tuner and puts it on the computer, while adding a few extra, useful features. It offers a "note preset" function that allows musicians to tune to the standard notes used by their instruments, as well as customizable temperaments. It has a harmonic graph feature that shows the nearby harmonics of the note being played, aiding in more precise tuning adjustments.

Our main objection was that it works only in standalone mode, without an option to be used as a DirectX or VST plug-in inside one of the most popular audio-editing programs. This drawback alone may keep it out of professional recording studios, but we would otherwise happily recommend it to computer-friendly musicians.

Scales (major, Dorian, blues) can be visualized on the keyboard A Chord sequencer is also available to play your patterns. Version 3.1 has chord sequencer, scales.Editor's review of All That Chords No matter what kind of piano chord you need to learn, chances are this free program can lead the way. Using All That Chords's unlovely but largely intuitive interface, you simply select the root note from one pane, then choose the actual chord type--such as major, minor, augmented, or diminished--from another. A glance at the keyboard near the top of the main window shows exactly what notes comprise the chord, and you can switch it to a higher or lower interval. You can have the program play the chord normally or as an ascending or descending arpeggio. We like the scoring feature, which shows all notes in the chord individually laid out on a musical staff; our only complaint is there's no way to see exactly how the chord would look on a piece of sheet music. The chord-analysis feature, which functions like a reverse-lookup tool, is another informative addition. While it won't really help beginners get on their feet, more experienced pianists looking for a chord-finding utility will find All That Chords more than sufficient.

Version 1.7 build 80 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.Editor's review of Power Tab Editor Plenty to fret over Power Tab Editor may easily become the veteran fretter's best friend. This feature-packed program lets you plot music onto digital tablature for exporting, burning, or playing MIDI files. The features are staggering--11 toolbars, 47 tips, and a max of seven guitars or basses per song are just the beginning. Deluxe tabbing capabilities let you adjust octaves and phrasing, and place an onslaught of markings, such as slides, bends, and vibratos. You can also create notes, store lyrics, and enter your favorite Italian music term if you're in the mood for something vivace. Well-stocked chord and tuning dictionaries help move you along. Unfortunately, the software's features sometimes outpace its functionality. Though attractive, the interface isn't very intuitive and contains character errors and other mistakes that could frustrate the most intrepid user. One crucial broken Quick Start link for creating new tablature spoils an otherwise robust and detailed Help menu. However, if you're feeling scrappy enough to push past the lesser points, the power payoff for using Power Tab Editor--digital tunes you tab yourself--may sound like rockin' music to your ears.

It has ear training exercises, a tab viewer/player, a tab manager, scales/chords generators, a virtual band for practicing/soloing. Version 2.01 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.Editor's review of aGuitar Pro Just to be clear: this is a different program from the popular Guitar Pro, a well-known tool for teaching and composing in tablature. Whatever the superficial similarities, aGuitar Pro is designed more as a general teaching tool for music theory and beginning guitar. The interface is smooth, although the application's extensive feature set takes some time to understand and master. It contains a large number of exercises aimed at developing a musical ear, along with a MIDI-based virtual band that accompanies students as they learn. The software allows tablature-based music to be imported from text files, a convenient way to extend the range of songs supported. The tool can be used freely for 20 days before the trial period expires. We would recommend the download to beginning guitar players who also want to develop their sense for musical theory.
