Practice & Perfect Your Chords
For every chord in the song, this app will:
- Show you exactly how to position your fingers on the fretboard.
- Listen to you strum each chord and give you instant feedback on the accuracy of the notes.
- Challenge you to perfect the chord fully before you can move on to the next one.
By the time you are done practicing chords, you should have no trouble remembering them. Most importantly, you’ll have picked up the perfect fretting technique.
Practice Strum Patterns
The next step will be to set the tempo and start practicing your strumming!
- Record yourself as you strum along with the on-screen guide.
- Turn on the reference track while playing for even more guidance.
- Once you are comfortable, increase the tempo and see if you can still strum correctly while playing at the original tempo of the song.
Practice the Whole Song
Now put it all together and hear the song take shape!
- Adjust the tempo to your liking.
- Record yourself practicing the song.
- The lyrics of the songs are displayed to make singing along easy.
- Playback your practice sessions to hear yourself progress.
- Get your overall score, your rhythm score and your chords score to know what you need to practice the most.
Level Up
Roadie Coach ( IOS | Android ) makes it fun to learn new songs and helps you progress one level at a time.
You will start at Level 1 and once you get a 90+ score you can advance to Level 2. At this level, some of the chords are present without their tabs. Then, if you are still able to achieve a score above 90, you can move on to Level 3 and so on!
