The Tunefox platform aids your learning with a suite of innovative features. Among these is the Lick Switcher, a powerful tool that encourages you to add new vocabulary to your banjo repertoire. By changing licks for separate measures, you can unlock a myriad of song variations. Be sure to tap each measure to discover the hidden licks within. This way, you can inject your own stylistic preferences into the arrangement and interpret the song anew.


Further to this, the Arrange slider lets you effortlessly customize the song’s difficulty to suit your own abilities. Sliding to the left will remove peripheral notes, leaving you with a clear, simple arrangement. Swipe right to reintroduce these notes and expose the full richness of the song.


Looping selected measures and playing along with backing tracks is another great way to learn. Use the tempo slider to change the pace to your liking. With the 'Speed Up' function, you can gradually stretch your boundaries by increasing the playback tempo bit by bit. Start at a comfortable speed and allow 'Speed Up' to incrementally push your tempo with each playthrough.


Remember, practice makes perfect. Take your time learning each lick and arrangement. Explore the wealth of variations offered by the Lick Switcher. Each tiny change you make in your practice can lead to a revolutionary understanding of the song, so experiment often and stay patient. Happy learning!
