  • Ireal Pro - If you don’t have it, you NEED it.

    If you are a musician at any level, this is the app for you! Imagine being able to practice any of hundreds and hundreds of INCLUDED songs at any tempo and in any key. Any number of choruses. Ability to select the rhythmic style. Ability to select the instrumentation of the rhythm section. Ability to dial rhythm instruments up or down - or out. You can even enter your own song chord changes. It’s not just a practice tool. You can hook your phone up to an amp and perform in public with this app. Make playlists. This is one of THE most well designed, well maintained and useful apps anywhere.
  • Real drums!

    The new real drums on jazz styles are awesome, thanks so much! Biggest wish would be for medium and uptempo swing brushes. The brushes that were added sound terrific, and the open even 8th note groove is really nice. Hoping for more real drums on other styles in the future, as well as other instruments. I have used this app for charts for many years…my only small gripe would be the input delay when creating my charts. Thanks again!

    This app does everything I need to practice jazz and many other genres. I use it with all my students and my original compositions as well. It’s less good with rock music. There are fewer rhythm tracks available. But there are excellent choices for Latin, Brazilian, and Blues.

    IReal is a must have for the practicing musician. The ability to learn standards in all keys alone makes it essential for anyone who takes practicing seriously.
  • This app is fabulous.

    I’ve had it for a few years now and me and most of the people I play with also use it. It’s so versatile, you can change the key the speed the style, choose the chord position that works best for any given tune and so much more. There’s a great selection of songs and the support has been incredible. You can even correct the music by changing the chords. It’s a bargain. Get it, you won’t regret it.
  • Before you buy on iPad, know what you’re getting

    This is basically an iPhone apps that was clumsily updated for iPad. If you’re planning on using this on your iPad and are planning on creating your own backing tracks for practice sessions, I would look elsewhere. It is rarely updated. If you download pre-made charts for backing tracks it works pretty well, but I need to make practice material and attempting to input chords and formatting is clumsy. The assistance from the forums is outdated, all the tutorial demonstrations are screen recordings from an old iPhone. If you are a musician and you pay for this and you are expecting forScore or Andante, this isn’t that.
  • Best app ever

    IF you don’t care about lyrics. You can type them in but space is limited. However, it pushes you to learn notation which serious musicians should know. Been using constantly for eight years.
  • Excellent support

    I signed up for iRealPro and had initial difficulty accessing the material. After emailing the company, I had a response and assistance within hours. Now I can enjoy the site!

    I love this app because not only can I learn how to play jazz tunes and also help me with my exercises and piano skills… You all have a lot of the popular songs that I’ve been wanting to learn to play and I can also use it as an accompaniment Since it has all the instrumentation that can go with the piano… Thank you very much
  • A Gift to Musicians and Vocalists!,

    I have been using IPad for at least 15 years to access the IReal Pro Music and Backing Tracks! What a gift to musicians and vocalists! Not only can you change the keys of a song and the musical styles but you can print the songs out for your musicians! Introduced to me by a smart vocal teacher I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! As the daughter of a well known symphony conductor and trumpet teacher I grew up with music and feel I know what I am talking about! When my first IPad broke I had to right away replace it so I could access IReal Pro. I can rehearse anytime and any place to prepare for a gig so I can save my money to pay musicians for a live gig! Thank you to the IREAL PRO Designer for this great tool! N. V. Happy Vocalist 🎤 ,
