Play piano along with a recording or YouTube video, with the score following

Attach a recording to the score

Open a score, choose Recording from the menu and pick an audio file from your device or paste a YouTube link. Watch, share and embed links all work.

The recording is saved for that piece, so it is there next time you open it.

Tap each bar start once

Press Tap bars, play the recording and hit Space (or the button) as each bar begins. Save, and the score now knows which bar belongs to which second.

If a tap was off, edit that bar's time instead of starting over.

The cursor follows the recording

While it plays, the cursor on the score moves with the recording. You read the notes as you hear them instead of guessing where you are.

Slow down and loop a passage

Set the recording speed from 50% to 100% and loop a passage by bar, from bar A to bar B. Slow a hard passage, repeat it until it settles, then return to full speed.

Good to know

The audio file is never uploaded. If a recording synced from another device, attach the file again on this one to play it. A YouTube video needs a connection to play.
