See the Scale.
Hear the Chord.
Play the Music.
The jazz practice app that helps you improvise — smart scale recommendations, lick library with auto-transposition, harmonic analysis, performance mode for live gigs, and bulk MusicXML import. Built as a learning tool by a musician, for musicians.
Not just chords. Understanding.
Other apps show you the chords and play a backing track. JazzVizor shows you what to play over each chord — in real-time, as notation, synchronized to the music.
Smart Scale Recommendation
Pattern-recognition for ii-V-I, tritone subs, modal interchange and more. The recommended scale lights up — but you can always choose another. No theory degree required.
Lick Library
40 built-in jazz licks in 5 categories (Dom7, Minor, Major, m7b5, dim7) — plus import your own. All auto-transposed to every chord during playback.
Harmonic Analysis
Auto-detection of 10 harmonic patterns — ii-V-I, turnarounds, tritone subs, Coltrane Changes, backdoor ii-V, chromatic ii-V and more. Color-coded grid at a glance.
21 Structured Exercises
ii-V-I major/minor, turnarounds, tritone substitution, Coltrane Changes — all 12 keys, 4 difficulty levels.
Import MusicXML
Compatible with iReal Pro and any standard-compliant MusicXML notation app. Supports .musicxml and .xml files. Imports your full chord chart — including sections (A/B/C), voltas (1./2.), repeats (|: :|), coda and D.C./D.S. markers. Multi-file selection with conflict-resolution dialog.
Import PDF Leadsheet
Attach a printed lead sheet (PDF) to any song — Add Leadsheet in the Song Editor, or Add File from the file picker. Read PDF while the app plays the chords.
Song Editor

Export — PDF & Audio

The right scale. The right phrases. Every chord.
JazzVizor is built as a learning tool for improvisation. The chord grid is just the start — what makes the difference is what plays over it. Two ways to access it: a Widget Mode right inside the Grid View (with Scale and Lick tabs), and a full-screen Chord Mode for deep-dive on the current bar.
- Widget Mode — Scale tab 💡 marks the scale that fits the moment (II-V-I, tritone-sub, modal interchange aware) — shown directly under the chord grid. Choose alternatives anytime.
- Widget Mode — Lick tab — 40 built-in jazz licks plus add your own (import MusicXML phrases or save licks directly inside the app). All licks auto-transposed to every chord. Switch tabs without leaving the song view. Build vocabulary, not just theory.
- Chord Mode — Per-bar deep-dive: scale notation, interval grades (1 2 b3 3 4 5 6 b7), and instant scale alternatives on one focused screen.



Read your PDF while the music plays.
Attach your own PDF lead sheet to any song — Real Book pages, hand-written charts, your own arrangements. Hit Play and watch the green position marker follow the music live, bar by bar, beat by beat. No more losing your place on stage.
- Live position tracker — green beat indicators light up on the current chord, synced to the backing track
- Inline Scale Widget — recommended scale notation appears under the PDF, updated per chord
- Tempo-aware — speed up, slow down, A-B Loop, the tracker stays in sync
- Bring any PDF — your own arrangements, Real Book pages, hand-written charts via Add Leadsheet
- Hands-free reading — focus on your instrument, the app handles the page

Understand the song, not just the chords.
10 harmonic patterns auto-detected. The color-coded grid shows sections and progression types instantly:
- ii-V-I (major + minor) in green
- Turnarounds in blue, dominant chains in red
- Tritone subs, Backdoor ii-V, Chromatic ii-V
- Coltrane Changes, modal interchange
- Song form: Blues, Rhythm Changes, AABA…


From lead sheets to full theory pages — plus playable backing tracks.
Export any song as a professional PDF in 3 modes — or render a high-quality M4A backing track. iReal Pro exports chords only. JazzVizor exports the theory and the music.

"I built JazzVizor because I wanted the tool I wished I had when I started improvising. As a Big Band leader, I see musicians struggle with the same things — knowing what scale fits, hearing the voice leading, building vocabulary. This app makes that knowledge visible."Michael Eckel — Big Band Leader & Developer, Vienna
