This app includes:

Howdy! Originally this app was designed for a way to record banjo parts on the go. Banjo+ has something to offer for musicians of any skill level. There are two modes to play this banjo: Tap and Strum. Tap mode will have you tapping the fret board to play the full octave range of each string. Strum mode is what sets this baby apart. In this mode your right hand strums the strings as your left hand navigates multiple chords, inversions, and variations for each key. Here is how it works: as you slide your finger from chord to chord, floating buttons will follow you and allow you to change the voicing of chords quickly and efficiently.
