Description

Purely Banjo is designed to help you become a better banjo player. By repeatedly practising the routines and lessons included in the software, your playing technique will improve over time. The advanced visual interface adds an extra dimension to your banjo practice, so you can see and hear how the music plays. Content includes scales, arpeggios and rhythm accompaniments.

Play along with Purely Banjo, with the help of a fretboard, animated musical score and tab notation. Live animation makes it easy to follow the music, so you can practise in a way that suits you - whatever your skill level.

See upcoming notes and hear how the piece should sound. Choose to hear synthesized music or a metronome rhythm - or a combination of both, if you prefer. This lets you engage in a listen-try approach to practice.

Structured lessons to improve your playing technique - from beginner to advanced. Purely Banjo includes lessons for all abilities, with new lessons available to download.

Don't get stuck in a rut - Purely Banjo gives structure to your banjo practice. Variety is the key to improving your playing technique!

Variable tempo to suit your skill level, allowing you to speed up or slow down each routine as required.

Create your own tailor-made lessons to suit your individual needs, by combining the existing routines into new lessons. This allows you to build up your own practice 'playlist', if you prefer to focus on certain areas.

Over 90 routines.

Choose from one of 90 routines included in the software, which have been specially designed to improve your playing technique from the moment you begin. All routines have been created by a professional musician with the aim of improving skills for all abilities, whether you're a beginner, intermediate or advanced player.

Everyone knows that practice makes perfect, but it's easy to get stuck in a rut practising the same routines over and over again. Purely Banjo gives structure to your practice, guiding you through sets of lessons that will help you to progress to the next level. What's more, you can keep your practice fresh by downloading content updates for a whole year.

Build your own tailor-made lesson schedules by simply using drag-and-drop to arrange the existing content into groups of your choice.

Choose a tempo to suit your individual needs for each lesson or routine.

Switch between hearing the music, the metronome or a combination of both to aid your learning.

Play along with a stand-alone metronome to provide a customised tempo.

Choose a constant tempo with adjustable accent (measure length) and visual display.

Could Be a Great App

This app has great features and find it very useful. I bought to become proficient on Jazz Tenor banjo. I already play guitar and 5-string banjo. The problem with this app is that the tab lines are displayed completely in reverse of any of the dozens of tab books I own and standard tab software like Guitar Pro and Tabledit. To get it to display properly for Tenor jazz banjo you have type in A4-D4-G3-C3 into the custom tuning every time you use it. Very annoying. I spoke with the tech support several times. The answer I received was that it was designed that way because most people expect the tab to be displayed that way. Utter nonsense. It’s a design flaw but they won’t admit it. How could most people expect their tab to be displayed opposite of what 100% of printed and digital tab is displayed. I’ve been using tab for 30+ years and never saw it displayed the way they do. Nonetheless, the arpeggio and scale exercises are very good learning tool.

Developer Response ,

Dear YoshBear, you can invert the tab in the Advanced >Tuning section. Simply reverse the tuning and it will update. Thanks.
