About Astrobass

Tools by a musician, for musicians

Astrobass is a small platform with tools for practising and playing: Eartraining trains your ear, Chordline turns chords, licks and text into a lead sheet. Everything runs in the browser, also offline, without tracking.

Who is behind it

I am Frank. I have played guitar and bass guitar for 50 years – with long breaks in between. In 2024 I got back into it properly, and since 2025 I have been taking lessons again at Andys Bass Camp. Today I play in two bands, covers and rock.

More and more I am drawn to jazz and the theory behind it: chord functions, scales, progressions. That is exactly where the ideas for the tools came from – Eartraining, because I wanted to hear these relationships, not just read about them; Chordline, because I needed one sheet for rehearsal with chords, licks and notes together.

Bass meets IT

For decades I have worked in IT, professionally and privately. I build and run many applications, mostly for the web, at work and as a hobby. Astrobass brings both together: what I was missing on the bass, and the craft to build it. AI and agentic software development help me turn more ideas into tools in less time.
