Great intro for a beginning songwriter

• ☆☆☆☆☆   Tonya 2000 9 years ago

This is a much needed tool for the beginning songwriter. Its nice to find something I can suggest to young musicians that are curious about the process but are confused by the mystery. This apps approach is simple, clear and a complete primer on songwriting.

good theory in this app

• ☆☆☆☆☆   jlynch3 9 years ago

really enjoying working out some song ideas with this, the team did a good job of integrating solid music theory with a good tablet user experience. I’ve recommended it to some friends who run a nonprofit teaching rock music to kids here in the bay area.

Highly Recommended!

This app is amazing! It breaks down song composition into concise parts which easily build upon each other. In under an hour you will have a pretty good idea of how songs can be structured and how to start composing your own music. Besides being good for making your own music, I would also recommend it for anybody that may be thinking of collaborating with a composer. It will give you a good idea how to describe different musical effects and patterns. Highly recommended!

This app is great for anybody interested in songwriting regardless of skill level. The app is easy to navigate and the lessons on music theories and compositions are easy to understand. Ive been playing guitar for 14 years and I still learned a lot of great tips and tricks from this app. Song Stepper has given me a new perspective on songwriting and how to make good songs using basic chord progressions and rhythmic patterns
