【實用音樂app】Fakebook - the Real Book|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

Thousands of pro musicians agree that Fakebook is a real bargain at this price. Transposable chord charts, PDF sheet music, ChordPro or ABC, this app handles them all. Sure, you love your well-worn paper Real Book, dog-eared at all the right places, sharpie-corrected at all the wrong, stained with coffee and beer... But now the Fakebook app gives you all the tunes you need. In the pocket. All the time.

The Fakebook sheet music reader comes preloaded with chord progressions for more than a thousand of the classic jazz standards from The Real Book ed 1,2,3,4,5... Instantly transpose the collection for Bb, Eb or F instruments, or transpose individual chord charts to suit the soloist or singer. Add your own songs, import PDF music files, sheet music, chord charts and lyrics from other formats (e.g. iRealPro / iRealb, ChordPro or ABC notation). Include your precious original songbooks or fake sheets using the phone's camera, import photos or PDF music from the web. Add your own notes, marks and reminders - it is now possible to draw and annotate on all charts regardless of format. Then share your songs using mail, Facebook, Bluetooth, Dropbox and more.

The search bar, chart browser and song list editor provides instant access to all music. Great on a jam or when taking requests! You can store and edit setlists, easily drag and drop songs to reorder, add and delete to create your own songbooks. When on stage, just swipe to the next chart or use a wireless foot pedal. Thanks to the lyrics support Fakebook is ready for any gig.

Fakebook is the ultimate tool for practicing. The app includes more than 1500 Spotify and YouTube links for the pre-loaded Real Book jazz standards. Search for recordings with a single click or use the built-in metronome, which remembers and synchronizes to the tempo you choose. The unobtrusive live metronome guides you also without sound.

Note that this app is in no way associated with iRealPro / iRealb / iRealBook and does not require any other purchase. But Fakebook will import the same chord sequences as supported by the iRealPro / iRealb / iRealBook app and editor, which means that there is a huge collection of free songs available for download and free utilities available for conversion from other formats.

PDF sheet music files are not included, but scripts for downloading, importing and indexing most common Real Books and Vocal Books are provided via a link in the app.
