3 Great Apps to Learn to Play a Musical Instrument (aka I want to be a musician in the indie rock scene)

II part

Android: MuseScore
For those on the Android side of the OS aisle, there are plenty of options here as well. One cool, open-source Android app you should check out is MuseScore. This app is in the Google Play Store, or you can sideload it on your phone (if that is an option for you). You can use your computer keyboard for inputting musical notes (giving a whole new meaning to keyboard!). The free version of the app comes with many features and was even mentioned in a list of the best apps that will help you learn how to read music. .

iOS or Android: Chord!
This app, available to users of both iPhones and Android devices, is a colorful way to learn how to play guitar with your fingertips. This app allows you to export your musical stylings, as well as drag and drop chords within your score to form progressions. It will also help you with chords you’re unfamiliar with — a perfect way to pick up a new guitar hobby without having to throw too much money at it to begin with. The app also comes programmed with an understanding of musical theory, which will help you figure out how to write songs once you reach that point in your musical education. .

Bonus Suggestion: Apartmentguide.com
This suggestion is for those who rent their homes. Learning a musical instrument can get noisy, and if you live in an apartment with thin walls, your neighbors may not appreciate your efforts. So, if at all possible, consider moving to a place where your efforts won’t bring the wrath of those around you. Use Apartment Guide to help you locate a place in Stamford, for example, that can accommodate your new hobby. Search by the number of bedrooms and neighborhoods to help narrow down your choices. This way, you can play your instrument without bothering anyone. Bring it all together… Once you have your app, some motivation, and the chops to record your own music, you will need some tools to help you bring it all together into a symphony of success. Recording equipment can be expensive, but if you look closely, you can find great deals on all of it.
