Solo is Android's most popular virtual guitar. It provides you with a fun and easy to play guitar that you can take anywhere with your Android powered mobile phone. It is a great tool for seasoned musicians and beginners alike - whether you want to quickly try out a new idea when song writing, or just jam along with your mates, Solo will provide you with hours of entertainment.
Features
- Solo features a variety of different guitars, including classical, acoustic and electric guitars. Each guitar produces its own authentic sound, as close as you will get to playing the real thing
- The app has a huge integrated chord library with more than 380 unique chords. It displays finger positions for the chords in natural, flat or sharp configurations. This can be used as a reference when playing a real guitar (it also plays a sample of what each chord should sound like), and to customize your chord layout visible on the main screen. Chord layouts can be saved and loaded for future use.
- Load and save chord layouts for your favorite songs.
- Play along with music from your phone! Solo will search your phone for music tracks and allow you to play along with the selected track playing in the background.
- Lyric overlays allow you to search the web for lyrics and chords for almost any song, and displays the lyrics as a semi-transparent overlay on top of the guitar. This is a great way to learn how to play new songs.
- Create and save recordings of what you play
- A variety of interface tweaks are supported, allowing you to customize the app to a playing style that best suits you.
- Attach to a supported smartwatch and use the watch to strum, like playing air guitar!
