Wow, Nigel, so mysterious [:D] I downloaded the demo version. Checked things out, seems to have lots of options for different accompaniment, as well accomp. sub-styles, like for Bulerias: de Jerez; al Golpe; en 12. I notice two things that might have incurred your displeasure - First, the relatively narrow range of speeds, though the settings seem adjusted to what occurs in practice from experience. However, it is not suitable for slower practice I guess which is indeed a bummer. Swim with the pros or die [:D] Second, while the sounds are real, it is obvious they are recorded at just one speed (probably at the default that it gives you when you choose a palo), and the rest is just digitally manipulating it to speed it up or slow it down to cover the range. And while doing so, the perceived pitch changes a bit too, so they did not hold the pitch when time-compressing/dilating; on the other hand, it is not pure time manipulation as the pitch changes are too small for the range. EDIT: Hmm, a third thing - the range for a given palo changes with different accomps chosen. How weird. So it is actually not as narrow as it seems. Is that it? I think it is still worth it. Price of two lattes. But I am not very experienced in flamenco apps - what is it that you noticed? Clickable link: https://www.flamencocompas.es/en/home/
