[JazzStudent]

This is my first posting. I am taking jazz piano lessons and looking for practice charts like 1-6-2-5-1. Etc. but can't determin how to find the mentioned charts. I did the the few jazz and blues exercise charts but am looking for the ones downloaded by everyone. Thanks.

The practice chart thread is full of 1-6-2-5-1 exercises, and many others, so just browse the posts, and when you find something you like tap on the link (browse the forum on your device, or from within the iReal app) and the charts will be downloaded and opened in iReal.
The same goes for any other thread in the forums.
For details, read the tutorials on the app on downloading from the forums, or the help pages in the forums.
Happy playing.

Hi There Jazz Student
It doesn't take long to make your own charts.
The system is very intuitive.
I suggest you;
1) choose the 48 bar template
2) add chords
3) then trim the extra bars when you're done.
This can actually be faster then looking around the forum
