For new musicians, choosing a new instrument or understanding the basics of music theory can be challenging. But there is a new generation of apps out there created to help both professional and amateur musicians.

Lana Meisak, the VP of marketing at Gismart, a company that created musical apps, said that the popularity and success of their musical apps lie in combining three elements: gaming, music, and education.

Mobile music games will continue to be influenced by three trends: collaboration, simplification, and tech innovations. Musical apps are also important in encouraging children to get into music.

With that said, here are some of the best apps for musicians.

Piano

Gismart's Piano has more than 50 million downloads. It is one of the most popular musical apps on the market, according to Classicfm.

The electric keyboard simulator uses a selection of instruments like organ, grand piano, and harpsichord to teach you all of the basics.

Piano's most successful feature is Magi Tiles. It plays you well-known songs while a series of prompts appear on the screen, guiding you towards the right notes. You can also write and record your own melodies or share your compositions with others.

Whether you want to master the guitar, ukulele, or piano, the musical app listens to you play before providing real-time feedback on key areas like timing and accuracy.

Using step-by-step tutorials, exercises and videos, and gameplay to track your progress, you can easily learn how to strum and sing.

Piano Kids

Created for children, this fun music box teaches them how to play musical instruments and discover unique sounds, according to Business Insider.

The app is bright and colorful so children can stay engaged, while four modes work together to boost their concentration, memory, creativity, and imagination.

From drum kits and xylophones to saxophones and flutes, the musical app is a great way to introduce children to sounds.

Violin

People who want to learn how to play the violin will love this musical app. Using a simulated bow, you can play along to popular songs in Game Mode by pressing notes on the fingerboard.

For gamers with a competitive streak, the app also allows you to play and compete against your family or friends, with daily challenges to boost your source.

Music Theory Helper

Music Theory Helper, created by Okram Apps, is easy to navigate.

This app lets you find out more about chords, intervals, symbols, note values, and scales. There is a lot of information on the app, which also offers a variety of exercises for improving your reading and listening skills.

Air Conductor

If you want to become the conductor of an orchestra, this musical app turns your mobile phone into a virtual baton.

The conducted beat pattern determines the tempo of the MIDI playback, and it uses the accelerometer of your mobile phone to detect beat patterns of 2/4 and 4/4, or you can set custom meters with the time signature feature.

The app's sample music library includes pieces from popular musicians like Mozart, Beethoven, and Tchaikovsky, so you can practice conducting to different tunes or add your own MIDI files.

In 2015, Roli launched Noise app that transforms your phone into a musical instrument.

In January, Joue Music Instruments introduced the new version of the Joue Play.
