Bass Fretboard Addict

Bass Fretboard Addict is aimed at bass players who want the neck in their head as well as under their fingers. That makes it strongest as a visual memory aid: notes, positions, and patterns on the fretboard become easier to rehearse than if they are only sitting in a book. By our assessment, it should be handy for routine practice, but it is still practice software, which means progress comes from repetition rather than from the app doing the work. In use, this kind of tool tends to be all drills and recall, with less glamour than a song app and less scope than a full theory course. It sits between flashcards and instrument study tools, and it will feel natural to anyone already doing bass work. If a player wants polish and variety, it is not that; it is an exercise room with a very specific focus.
