Pentatonic Riff Forge
An interactive music-practice system for creating, hearing, saving, and practicing pentatonic riffs on guitar, bass, and piano. Riff Forge is offered as full desktop software plus a smaller Web Lite trial.
Full desktop editions
The Mac and Windows desktop editions are the complete Riff Forge product. They are installed locally and are designed so the core application can continue working offline after installation.
- Full guitar, bass, and piano tools.
- Supported scales and fretboard positions.
- Riff building, playback, and Saved Riffs.
- Listening practice and microphone features.
- Printable PDF practice sheets.
- CAGED and chord-learning tools.
- Local desktop storage and offline use after installation.
Web Lite
Web Lite is a deliberately limited browser trial. The current trial provides basic guitar-focused access for 30 days and does not include the full desktop feature set.
- Guitar only.
- Minor and Major Pentatonic.
- Positions 1 and 2.
- Basic playback and limited riff creation.
- No complete Saved Riffs, Listening Mode, PDF, CAGED, bass, or piano package.
Account and downloads
Desktop licenses and Web Lite access are tied to the customer email account. Desktop customers can sign in to My Downloads to access the installer for a desktop license they own. Mac and Windows licenses are separate.
