Description
Groundbreaking next-generation methods, "Muto music method." An instrument -"Chromatone" was created based on this method. Now, "Chromatone" is released in Android app!
[MUTO Music Method (Chromatic system)] is our achievement through our original research and development.
Many people have given up learning how to play piano, because of difficulty with black keys, such as ♭, ♯and all the theories. Essentially, music should be something that you can enjoy light-heartedly when you feel sounds intuitively.
Anyhow, you must have an experience where you were increasingly annoyed by the theoretical complexities, and gave up playing piano for good. Chromatone allows you to go back to the essential of music as it should be, and have fun at ease. It is a keyboard intended for everyone who wants to get their feet wet in the world of music.
Our secret is in "Muto music method (Chromatic system)", which was uniquely developed by Chromatic Music Lab. As for this method, you use music scores (Chromatic notations instead of standard ones) in which ♯ and♭ are not included, and an instrument-"Chromatone” with no distinction between black keys and white keys.
For example, conventional pianos (diatonic scale) and music scores function exclusively for C major, and "C" is fixed. While, “Chromatone (chromatic sequences)” and " Chromatic notations" function without constraints of keys, hence “C” is completely in mobility.
In the case of conventional pianos and standard scores, all the 12 keys need to be described differently making full use of black keys with additional symbols such as ♭ or ♯. This causes gaps in keys such as "Easy key and difficult key", "Key that you like and key that you don’t like" or "Key that you are good at, and key that you are poor at”. Thus, this conventional method causes a variety of negative effects in increasingly evolving contemporary music. There are too many obstacles on our way to expressing music freely.
Meanwhile, this Muto music method(Chromatic system) using Chromatone and Chromatic notations, allows you to handle 12 keys equally, by eliminating symbols that are unnecessary to express music such as ♯or ♭, as well as distinction between black keys and white keys. As a result, the amount of your practice can be reduced by 1/12 , compare to the practice using conventional method, as finger movements and forms to perform codes and scales are same in 12 keys. This means, you can learn how to play piano and its theory 12 times faster. Now you can enjoy the freedom to express music without being bound to keys.
You can enjoy Chromatone with your Android at ease anywhere. Using this music instrument which allows you to create a brand new melody, you can travel to the world of new music now!

Please update for full screen utilization. And accept in app payments.
★★☆☆☆
Cool idea, but lousy in practice Its just harder to play. Also the app is kinda clunky. Tries to imitate a physical chromatone keyboard rather than optimising for touch screen. Doesn't use full width that it could. Multi touch is buggy.
★★☆☆☆
I don't like it. It may be good as a concept but it's still easy to play piano.The only advantage is that all scales are going to look alike
