    iReal Pro allows for a change of key and that's great.

    Working on a chords grid is best if it is possible in any key

    Is there a way to have a random key change ?

    If this features doesn't exist I'd love in a future release to have the option to randomly change the key every N charts...

    Merry Christmas to all iRealers

    Experiment with the practice feature (graduation hat icon) ��
    There is no setting for "random" but you can specify an up or down interval for each repeat of the form or looped section.
    Try ii-V-I with a +6 shift and play through all 12 in the same position.

    Then add an increase tempo setting, say 4-5 bpm....

    Default Random keys in Practice mode

    In Practice mode, you can set an interval for the next repetition of the song or excercise. To make the excercise slightly harder, a 'random' button would be perfect. That way you wouldn't know beforehand in which key the next repetition of the song will be.

    Default Random Key

    When practising with my students, I like the feature "increasing the key each time the chorus is played". I would also like "random key" feature (for example random new key and transpose the sheet after each chorus). This could be good for ear training and variability practicing.

    Thank You for considering this

    Default Random key selection

    I think a great ear training and practice tool would be to have a random selection that would cycle through all 12 keys

    Default Automatic transposition with random intervals

    I am missing an automatic transposition where the interval is chosen randomly.

    And for that feature it would be really nice when the chords at bar 1..n are shown in the new key before they are played. (I think, this is generally useful)

    Last but not least, what do you think about an option to make the transition one or two measures earlier?


    BTW: I like the automatic transposition very much and I am using it extensively! Thanks!

    Default Random chords practice

    I'd like to practice chord extensions and scales with user-selectable randomly sequenced chords. Say 2 per measure, all 12 keys, minor chords. After playing one iteration, press a button and they randomize again. Use the principle to also combine chord types for example, min, maj, dom. Etc. with random ii-V-I progressions, etc.
    It would be an electronic version of flashcards but with chord backing.

    Default Random qualities, random transposition

    Forgive me, I’ve only this hour purchased the app, so I’m still bussed out and overjoyed, but at the same time a little disappointed that transposition can not occur at random intervals. Also, say I wanted to practice ii-V7-I, it would be brill for iReal to randomly choose the chord quality, as well as transpose at random intervals e.g iib5-V7b9-IM7, then transpose and ii7-V7#9b13-i6 etc.

    Make it so captain������
