Latest reviews of Sax KEYS app for iPhone and iPad
Good App
Not a bad way to start learning the sax, it would really help if you could go from one note to the other just by sliding to the left or right, this would be to eliminate having to tap the screen then slide the bottom menu. Even an arrow you tap to go a note higher or lower would be a good idea fo this app as well. And one last thing, is the fingering of A#4 and A#5 ok? Or is one of them wrong?
Cool app but needs a lot of work
Greetings,
I just downloaded this app yesterday and tried to use it during my practice session and have a few comments:
BUGS
1. Some of the fingerings (G6, for example) are incorrect.
2. The octave range numbers are off by one. For example, what you have as a C4 is a C5 (according to the Peterson Strobe people), so you may want to take a look into that.
FEATURE REQUESTS
1. A catalog of multiple fingerings for the same note. Im not sure how you would implement that (dropdown menu or something), but I would like to have a full and correct set of all fingerings to alleviate having to go, "Now where in my three-foot stack of papers are those fingering charts?"
2. Altissimo up to F7 (based on your octave numbering scheme). For example, go beyond A6 to at least the D above that and the F above that D.
Id like for this to be a one-stop shop reference for fingerings. The more stuff I can take with me in my phone, the less Ill have to carry or have around physically. :)
Other than those things, I liked it, especially the graphics styles. Thanks for your hard work!
FYI, Im running this on my iPhone 3GS with the very latest firmware & software update.
Doesnt Work
Wont work using iPhone 6 fully updated software. Tries to open and goes black screen and then drops back to home screen.
