URGENT: You can't play a transposing instrument along with the midi playback!!!!!
I am really disappointed that by changing the key signature of the chord chart so that my instrument (Bb Tenor Saxophone) is in the right key, the MIDI playback then reads the chords from the chart in concert pitch; resulting in me either following the chords and playing a tone above the MIDI playback or having to attempt to convert the chords in my head on the fly (for Giant Steps that's not desirable:().
If there is a function already set up to solve this issue please can someone let me know? If not then this is an absolute imperative function. Frankly I can't believe:eek: that no one has mentioned this before and so I'm optimistic that there is already some way round this egregious fault.
Thanks,

Request for new combo rhythm styles
I'm writing to the iReal b for iOS forum: Feature requests thread to suggest a couple of new combo rhythm styles. As the Latin/Swing style demonstrates that iReal b has the capacity to change rhythm styles within tunes, implementing these new styles should be relatively straightforward.
1. On 1-04-2012, a member named thesoundsmith requested a new combo rhythm that played in "two" during the A sections of the first and last choruses, and in "four" during the B sections of the first and last choruses and for all of the middle (= not first or last) choruses. This style would be useful for many tunes; a good example is Duke Ellington's "Just Squeeze Me."
2. I suggest that it would be useful to have a combo rhythm for jazz ballads that plays like the Ballad Swing style on the first and last chorus and plays in double-time for the middle choruses. This would be very useful for practicing double-time solos on slow ballads. In addition, perhaps an additional style would play like the Ballad Swing style on the first and last choruses and the even-number middle choruses and in double-time for the odd-number middle choruses, just for variety and practice in going from straight- to double-time.
I really enjoy iReal b on my iPad mini (a great size to carry around with a screen big enough to easily read and edit songs). Keep up the good work!

Transpose chord scales +- 1oct
As a tenor trombone planer, it could be really cool if there was a way to transpose the chord scales up an octave as we usually play in bass clef with in or above the staff, but almost never under.
For instance E-scales we have to transpose before using them, I have attached an example.
Also a feature to set the lowest scale could be very useful :y:
Keep up the good work on this epic app :)
Jazz Swing Two/Four in new Ver 4.6 for iOS
Hello,
I just downloaded the new update Version 4.6 for iOS. The Jazz Swing Two/Four works exactly as I requested a couple of weeks ago: bass in two during the A sections of the first and last choruses and bass in four for the B sections of the first and last choruses and all of the middle choruses with appropriate drum variations. Many thanks!
Chord Scales in Bass clef
:cool:I'm new to this , as far as I can see the chord scales only appear in C clef format......bass clef would be nice for bass players! Or am I missing something?
WIST to run multiple devices in sync
I am in an informal group that use IReal b for training. It would be nice if we could have multiple devices running together in a master slave mode. I heard about WIST: Collaborate across iOS Devices & Apps.
Any chance of doing this?
