“What a brilliant learning system to enable a 73 year old to play banjo, this app has brought me a new lease on life.”
Tunefoxer
“I’ve been an early user of TuneFox and I love the app and the ease with which I can learn new songs, either solely by ear or with some of the tools (ease of isolating measures, hidden notes, ability to switch in different licks, Scruggs/melodic and backup playing styles). With TuneFox, I’ve stretched myself like never before.”
