Pico Forte

What is Pico Forte? 

I made this app so that I could quickly and easily create backing tracks to practice soloing over.  It can also generate chords at random  which is useful for ear training.  

How to use the randomizer:

Select 'Chord Sequence' in the main menu, highlight a bar using the Left and Right arrow keys, and press Z to turn the randomizer on for the selected bar. You can turn the randomizer off again by pressing Up, Down, or Z, when the bar is highlighted. 

When the randomizer is turned on it will pick a chord at random from the Pool. To add or remove a chord from the Pool go to the 'Random Pool' menu, highlight the chord you want and press Z. You can cycle through different chord types by pressing Left Shift.

Chord Types: 

"-" = Minor
"o" = Diminished
"+" = Augmented
"S" = Sus4 
Blank = Major
