Riffler Flow 5 min silent demo & giveaway
Riffler Flow 5 min silent YT video demo & giveaway
Riffler Flow is the new app by the Riffler dev, aimed at a wider range of genres than the original Riffler app, and based on progressions rather than scales or modes. All details etc, appstore link, giveaway details to win either Riffler Flow or the original Riffler app etc are in the pinned YT comment as usual.
The vid is just 5 mins long, but should give you a nice idea of what the new Riffler Flow app is capable of. I really like it so far.
Twitter and Insta giveaways will be up later today, cheers! Gav

Great app, I like it a lot and it can work perfectly together with the standard Riffler and Piano Motifs should you want a total melody and accompaniment generation.
I miss the possibility to force to a defined scale. I think this is available in the standard Riffler. Hope to see that in a further release
Yes - I think many people would have difficulty dialing in their own progressions manually unless they know enough theory, and if they use the knobs in the automatic settings, might also have difficulty figuring out quickly what scale or mode something is in. I wonder if it is basically a bit like 4Pockets Progressions, in that it doesn’t stick to particular scales or modes, in which case maybe the added flexibility is good, but certainly no-one would complain if scales and modes were added, that’s for sure!
And yes - that ability was there in the original - dev decided to take a different approach here, but seems like he might be open to adding scales / modes access in a more straightforward way, as in the original. Certainly, if ppl want that, emailing him to request it i more likely to make it happen
I suspect that it’s designed to be the rhythm guitar player that outlines/arrpegiates the select chords so scales are left to the soloist to pick the scale that fits with the chords shown at the top.
Of course, offering chords that fits a particular scale like Scaler 2 does is another approach to an app that generates parts.
But the developer is a guitar teacher of 20+ years that creates apps that think like a guitar player so the teacher would show all the places on the guitar neck that you could “voice” a particular chord and that’s what I see in the tab. Arrpegios of the selected or preset chords.
If you touch any of the chords up top it will open the options menu to change that chord as you see fit:
Indeed, and I showed that view briefly in the vid. I didnt know Jon was a guitar teacher, interesting, and not very surprising as he certainly seems to know his way around a guitar. I think this app will have a very broad appeal. Anyone can get good results from the presets, knobs etc and some tinkering, and then people who know more about theory etc can go a lot deeper. Although it's been a slow burner, it seems, in terms of how much interest it has generated here on the forum so far, I think it will probably do very well, what do you think McD?
It’s a winner because of the strict adherence to chords, I think. I can set up 3-4 instances and vary them by rhythms (8th, 16th or triplets) and get the wonderful 2:3 polyrhythm like the “Game of Thrones” theme… a celtic rhythmic staple. Then point 2-3 at a piano with one on a low range (maybe even dropped an octave for more bass) and the other dialed up in range (or transposed up an octave and everyone is playing these precise rhythm on the same chord progression. Copy the chord progression over to
iBassist or Piano Motifs increases the and you get an IP free backing track to play over or use for DJ sound mixing.
It’s a wonderful source for StaffPad and it exports MIDI files though with 4-5 instances I’ll assign them to unique channels and record them all with Atom 2 in AUM to create a multi-part MIDI file.
I made this nice progression with a descending bassline:
So If I wanted to use this Riffler Flow with iBassist then I have to copy chord progression from RF to iB manually?
EDIT: Jade Starr said in his video here that progression sharing is not possible for now. No sure if this is an answer for what I have asked for. I guess he talked about sharing between Riffler Flow instances.
