Chant Tools

About this app

Offline Mass Propers
This app is an offline version of the chant tools available at http://bbloomf.github.io/jgabc/

It is mostly intended to be useful for containing the Gregorian Mass propers as well as the Gregorian Mass ordinaries as found in the Liber Usualis, and transcribed on GregoBase (http://gregobase.selapa.net) and there may be some mistakes in the chant. If you notice any, they can be corrected in GregoBase (if you go to http://bbloomf.github.io/jgabc/propers.html and find the chant with the mistake, you can click the link above the chant on the left side to get to the GregoBase version of the chant, and edit it there to fix it, or request that it be fixed.)

Ratings and reviews

I love this app because I am very forgetful and I often leave my Liber Usualis at home (that thing is heavy). This app very convenient and saves me a lot of time from flipping many pages of Chant also the Propers are already laid out and there are options for the user to use whatever Calendar they have in their Parish. I also love that there is an option to use the Psalm toned Mass Propers. I hope that more apps like this would be made. Thank you very much!

great tool, I would definitely recommend it. the only issue is with playback: if I want to stop the music and "rewind" it to a previous line or anywhere else in the song the playback stops working. the only "fix" is to restart the app.

Could do with an update based on some notational errors now corrected on the Gregobase site, but otherwise an incredibly useful app. Date of Easter seemingly inflexible as well...!
