iReal Pro App Comentários

Merci

Super

Go to tool for musical ideas...

Lots of us musicians use this app. Easy, stable, great for sharing charts for a band or jamming. It’s great being able to transpose charts for finding the right key, and an excellent rehearsal tool. Best app I’ve ever bought.

Not at all what I was looking for. Songs I imported sound pathetically amateurish. Wanted something to play along with and every sample I’ve listened too. $20 wasted.

IReal Pro is become an indispensable practice tool. It is very easy to find and import songs that other people have published on the web. It is also incredibly easy to write your own tracks. There is lots of good info in their forums and their support is great. Worth every penny.

The folks behind this app are helpful. Good tool for learning guitar

Perfect for trading and playing ever 🎶

What is it now, 2005? Imagine an app that requires you to have a username and password. You have to come up with an original username so you are forced to try a bunch of things til you get one that nobody else has. Now a few years go by and you want to find more charts so you try to log in so you can access the forums. What was that username you made up on the fly when you first bought the app? Donn’t know it? You are out of luck. There’s a “forgot password” option, but no “forgot username” option. You spent 20-something dollars for the app, and it’s pegged to your Apple ID. You are using the same device, same Apple ID you had when you bought the app. But no, you are locked out. You won’t be getting in. Period. So many things about this old, clunky app are just like this. Want to name a chart you just created? If a chart already exists for that song on any of the playlists you have previously downloaded, you will not be able to use that title. You’ll have to call your chart All Of Me 2, or something like that. You’ll find the whole app is riddled with nutty appendices on the names of common songs. It’s so freaking cumbersome amd clunky. It’s from a bygone era, but it’s what everyone uses for the time being, so it’s what you are stuck with.

I wish I could tell what I think about what this app does. It might just be amazing. Certainly some people seem to think it is. However the needlessly complicated registration process had me fuming from the moment I started to register and after 45 minutes I never did get registered. I don't know whether I hate this app or not, but I certainly hate its registration process.

I’m just sad that be already bought this app, and I want to get it on my Chromebook. I have to pay for it again. Otherwise the app is great.

This is a revised review. Overall, the app is great - see all the other glowing reviews. I’m docking a star because I initially struggled with this app and Apple Family Sharing. The gist is, I thought it wasn’t working, contacted iReal Pro support, who couldn’t help and said try Apple support. After a number of chat sessions, it still didn’t work. So I requested a refund though Apple and wrote and unflattering review regarding the inability to get family sharing to work. Only after all that did a new iReal Pro support person reach out and explain how to do family sharing with the app. I’ve since re-purchased the app and now have it working on multiple devices. Ultimately this is essentially user error on my part. My understanding is that the iReal Pro developers have no control over this functionality (other than to enable it). That said, I do think it’s fair to expect them to have some more familiarity with the user-facing side of what is presumably their biggest platform. The problem I had is that Apple’s interface for family sharing is inconsistent. I have another (unrelated) purchased app. For that one, on any of my other iOS devices, I can go into the App Store and download/install it for free (because it’s already been paid for). However, if I try to do that with iReal Pro, it can’t be downloaded without paying (even though I already paid for it on another device). For iReal Pro, you have to go into the App Store, then into your account, then select apps, and then into the family section. So this is really a ding against Apple, as the family sharing mechanics are demonstrably inconsistent - and in my opinion, not intuitive. When I select the app from the App Store directly, why doesn’t it automatically “know” that I’ve already purchased this app? But I maintain that iReal Pro support should generally have a better understanding of the Apple App Store platform.

Saved me on a few gigs

It’s the app that I use more than anything else. It has so much to offer. Only thing I wish was that the practice transposition would go up/down by interval and not by half steps.

I retired and started playing jazz cello three years ago. I installed iReal maybe two months in to that project. I use iReal every day I practice. When I have run into technical problems, email support has been very prompt, with consistently careful answers to the questions I pose.

I do not understand why everybody raves about this. I have no idea how to decipher these gobbledygook charts. No lyrics no nothing. Just a bunch of slashes and triangles and stuff. Get guitar tapp, it at least has the lyrics and where the changes are. This is terrible. I guess they just assume you magically already know "chart-ese" Update - there's no way like in the app it doesn't even show you what your username and password is. This is the most complicated load of garbage I ever saw in my life..

Does everything I need to from charts in any key practice audio in any key!

I love this app

I’ve been using iReal for years for teaching, gigging, and practicing, and it’s simply the best of the breed. And it keeps getting better. Customer service is great and they’re always looking for ways to improve the app. A must have app for working musicians.

Ten years ago, I was playing gigs with a young jazz singer and his friends, a drummer, bassist, and a trumpeter. They attended a school where there were no heavy players, nor a culture of such. I would play the gig from the singers iPad. This was my introduction to iReal Pro. No complaints, I like iReal Pro! I even run it via WiFi to my board from my iPhone. Back to this group - One day the trumpeter told me that the iReal Pro is the new Aebersold. I said no, because iReal Pro doesn’t show the head. Can you add the melody? Cheers, Andy

Thank you!

I use iRealPro to try out chord progressions for songs I’m writing. It lets me try the song in different styles and tempos which can unlock some cool ideas. Also if the song hold up well in different genres then I know it’s gonna be good.

This app is amazing . It’s such a valuable tool for improving your playing and it gives you the opportunity to simulate playing with a band.

The jazz playlist now seems to be a mix of jazz and pop. It’s missing a lot of standards.

Need more Rhythmic Chordal features, such as quaver and semi-quaver beams in the bar, which are widely used in contemporary music.

This has been a very useful app for years.

Buy this app, play with this app. Play better

It’s fun, engaging and a great help tool for learning to play my instruments.

If I bought the iOS version, it should work on my M1 Mac and not force me to purchase twice. I’ve asked for a refund as I had missed that detail.

Fun to jam along with.

As a bass player this app is a god send for jazz gigs or really any gig. I have even started to use the create chart feature for transcribing chords for tunes that I am learning.

So worth it

I am begging you guys, please let us have the old keyboard layout back. Or at least an option to have it. I had mastered a workflow to quickly make charts on the fly. The most frustrating part is having to hit two buttons to get the "repeat last measure" symbol. Still rating high because I love the app. But please guys, why fix what wasn't broken

I wrote to the support team more than a week ago and still no response from them. Apparently support services are an issue here. You would think by sending an email they would get back to you after 7 days. For now I’ll give 3 stars until the matter is resolved.

You can’t even reset your password. It sends you a link to reset your password that requires your password. Bizarre. No wonder I stopped using it a while back. I thought they might have made it easier to use. Nope….can’t even get started.

Literally a must have for any jazz musician and even pop musicians. Everyone at my university uses it.

iRealpro I love it. From beginner to a pro in a week.The online forums and the YouTube videos really help. I’ll be making a video 2023 as a teaching resource. The programs and the styles work great to get a understanding of how progressions fit with tempo in a particular style. Placement of notes usage of Hutton helps to control the flow and the notation used. Being able to transfer this to a midi capable program is also amazing. Using this as a tool for musical growth the functional piano/guitar/uke setting make it possible to see chords and how to play them as well as see the mode associated with the chord chosen. From the choices out there this is The Best tool For any musician that writes and practices daily. Let’s all look forward to updates, new styles of songs, and possible new music to be written by you! Wish there was a referral system for users to suggest… Wish the program was updated with more styles at relatively i expense costs for packages Wish the program allow user collaboration Wish the ideas that are awesome in the forum actually happen (like adding outro buttons/ highlight beat count inside repeat measure…. By far best program out there!!

A great tool for learning changes.!

One of the greatest “tools” for gigging and getting vocals and tunes lined up for gigs and performances… great practice tool too … just super just wish I could find a copy for my old iPad replacement… someone stole my old iPad and when I bought a refurbished older one APPLE wouldn’t let me get a copy for it so I’m using my iPhone… but they should make older versions of the apps available 😳

The app is fine but may bug out on you. Often it insists that I have the bars arranged incorrectly even when I have them in the proper format, which is irritating when I’m trying to get a certain harmonic rhythm. Aside from this the language the app uses for displaying chords is not very user friendly. I try to understand what info they provide but I’m still yet to understand how I would go about getting certain voicings like augmented 6th and chords without the 5th. But the app is good for getting rough ideas, practicing, and familiarizing yourself with different and common styles of music.

Every time I open the app it immediately closes back out

An amazing tool to even help beginners. I hope to fully realize it’s capabilities someday

It allows you to set up different types of set lists, using variations of different instruments. A must for the non-reader who has an ear for lead!

Straight forward and easy to use

I LOVE JAZZ!!!! I LOVE IREAL PRO!!!!!

Sound Quality is good and it helps you pick scales for each chord.

5 stars for entire app however I purchased the blues set and liked what was there except…the slow blues had the lamest non slow blues bass lines. Seriously? Get someone who knows about the blues to program. If it was an off the shelf product I would want a refund. Hopefully they fix this. 0 stars

App is great, industry standard, blah blah blah. Everyone loves this app When I go to switch between types of chord charts (guitar to piano to notation) it uhhhh doesn’t. Won’t turn off either. Have tried shutting out the app and it persists.

I’ve used this app forever. Like most of my adult life, 10+years. I used to play upright bass professionally. This app has got me through hundreds of pick up gigs- you know the type jazz musicians. All you hear is “Hey come play”, and when you show up to the gig they just start calling tunes from 100 years ago like you should have it in your blood. This app let me keep up and sound great with that kind of gig. A quick download and you have changes to a ton of standards at your disposal. Only way this could be better is if it had the melody loaded in. For practice it’s great. The rhythm section can be pretty stale but for working your way through changes at various speeds, 😘👌🏼(chefs kiss). You can alter changes easily. And mixing out instruments is cool, I can practice walking lines. I use it even when writing songs. It’s pretty easy to make a lead sheet off these, including exporting to pdfs in case you need to pass to a friend. It’s great to have a band at your disposal to hear your parts too. There are some good grooves as well. Honestly the best money I’ve spent on an app as a jazz musician, maybe on any music tech stuff. Thanks guys for all the help over the years!

I’ve been using iReal Pro for a couple of years now on my solo piano jazz gigs. Solo gigging can be a bit boring and tedious at times, especially when the music your playing is requested to be purely background music at corporate/special events. IReal Pro has given me a bit of spice to my music for the average listener, in addition to working with a metronome type tool, which is always good way to improve your time. I love the ease of downloading tunes and / or creating new tune arrangements with this app! The ease of changing the key is convenient on the fly when needed. Setting up play lists for special events is super handy in addition to having quick access to a singer’s song list that may have “out of the ordinary” keys. There are many great reasons to use iReal Pro, but one great plus is the quick response to customer support (in real time) to questions one may have when using this great app. Thank you, iReal Pro!

Was imagining building an app which took Real Book chord names and translated them into backing tracks to practice. And then realized that app was already built and a thousand times better. Cheers!

This app was a great idea when is appeared about 15 years ago. But unfortunately the tool has not substantially evolved since it’s initial release. No functionality of any significance has been added. It still has the same primitive interface, with the same minuscule array of editing and annotation options. The whole premise of the app is ‘keep it simple’. Fine - I’m down with that. Its very limited capabilities are indeed extremely useful, for one simple reason: Everybody else uses it, so you have to as well. Because the app is in very many respects profoundly weak to the point of being truly laughable, I feel sure that if and when a better option comes along (I.e. another tool offering similar functionality but done much better) large numbers of users including me will quite rightly abandon iReal. Basically the guys that wrote this have made their money, and are continuing to do so with ongoing sales of the product. There is no real competition (yet) and thus no incentive to radically rethink the tool, or add significant new functionality. They have not earned a whole lot of respect from real software engineers, or from legions of disappointed users who need many improvements that never arrive. Positives: In certain contexts, like for example if you are a rhythm section player and are called upon to play an unfamiliar song, then it’s worth its weight in gold. It’s a useful practice tool - you can play along using the playback functionality, which in the background generates and executes a midi sequence based on the chords, tempo, style etc that you select. So far so good. However… - Editing capabilities are primitive and extremely limited - Playback sequences (not to mention the very weak array of styles) range from just ok to truly atrocious.
