Guitar Gravitas: Total ed. App Reviews

Excellent and versatile tool for guitarist.

There are more names for the various modes than anyone could ever need, but the interface could use some refinements.

This is by far the most thorough app I’ve used. There are scales, chords, theory lessons, that are all easy to understand. Extras like a tuner and metronome are wonderful. I would honestly have paid more for it. Thank you, Guitar Gravitas!

I’ve gotten a lot of use from this app. It has about everything you need to learn scales, chord and arpeggios. It’s a good solid reference for me.

This app is awesome! I wish I’d know about it sooner, could’ve saved me from wasting time and/or money on almost every other chord/scale app I’ve tried. I haven’t tried the tuner yet but I will asap(rewiring my guitar atm) and I’ll review - I have high hopes for it though, already! Thanks guys! MightyBouch

There are two versions of this app on the Mac app store, one is free (and wasn't able to load content, including the store) and this $7.99 Total ed edition. Anyway, $7.99 is a bargain. This is the most comprehensive guitar reference I've ever seen on the Mac - and I've been doing computers and music for a long time! My only wish is that it displayed keys in the circle of fifths or fourths along the top, and more clearly displayed which key is selected. Overall though, it's really great.

The chord and scale encyclopedias appear to be robust, however the UI could benefit from some flexibility. When viewing scales, I'd like the option of resizing the skeumorphic fretboard into some of the space above where I don't need so many lines of scales in written form. A sliding window seems doable. Also, I'd like to be able to open multiple scale diagrams--say, Aeolian and Pentatonic, simultaneously. Other items would be more useful were they not buried in the settings--which guitar tu

Overall, it is a good program that puts a lot of resources (Chords, Scales, etc) at your fingertips. However, I was never able to get the tuner to work reliably.

This app makes it super easy to find and look up scales, arpeggios and much more. No more google-ing and waisting time to find what you’re looking for. This app made me much more efficient and helped focus on actually practicing!
