Exercises on jazz standards

Search for the tune you are working on and generate exercises on its chords: guide tones, arpeggios, scale patterns and chromatic approach, on the whole tune or on a single section, in every key and with bass, piano and drums accompaniment.

From the saved exercise you transpose it in one click and save it in the other keys: each one keeps its own speed and progress.

Why GEN is different

  • The old way

    An exercise book

    A few hundred exercises, always the same, written in a handful of keys. You transpose the rest yourself, and nobody plays them for you.

  • The old way

    A backing track

    It accompanies you, but it does not tell you what to play: progression, key and tempo are those of the recording.

  • The new way

    GEN

    Over fifty million exercises written on the staff, in every key, with a backing that plays along at the tempo you choose and progress that stays measured.

What you can do with GEN

  • Scale exercises

    Over 30 scales in every key, 24 patterns and 18 articulations, over one or more octaves or within the range of your instrument.

  • Chord progressions and turnarounds

    Major and minor II V I, blues, Rhythm changes, nine turnarounds and the progressions you write yourself: guide tones, arpeggios, scale patterns and chromatic approach on every chord, in one key or in all of them.

  • Jazz standards

    Over 1300 standards in the catalogue: find the tune and generate exercises on its chords, on the whole tune or on one section, in every key. A saved exercise is transposed and saved in the other keys in one click.

  • Accompaniment

    Every exercise plays with double bass, piano and drums, with or without swing. Switch off the line and play over the backing yourself.

  • Your archive

    Save your exercises and find them again with search, coloured tags, personal notes and playlists.

  • Contacts and sharing

    Connect with another user, a student or a teacher for example, and send them an exercise or a whole playlist: once they accept, it sits among their own.

  • Progress

    Record the metronome speed you reach: the history and the chart show how you improve, exercise by exercise.

  • Linked theory

    Seven tools on scales, keys, chords and intervals, linked to the generators: from a scale to its exercise in one click.
