How it works

Three steps, then just play.

  1. 01

    Your teacher adds the piece

    Guitar Pro or MusicXML, with fingering and tab positions. A note from your teacher comes along with it.

  2. 02

    You play, it listens

    Through the microphone of your phone or laptop — single notes and full chords.

  3. 03

    It waits for you

    Wrong note? It tells you what it heard. The score moves on when you get it right.

Play along

It waits for you.

No backing track racing ahead. Play at your own pace — the cursor follows you note by note, chord by chord. Missed one? You see what it heard, not just a red cross.

  • Single notes and full chords
  • Repeated notes need a new pluck — letting it ring doesn't count
  • Time and mistakes for every run, and your personal best

Practice tools

Loop the hard part. Slow it down.

Drag across the bars you're stuck on and loop just those. Listen at half speed with the metronome, then work your way back up.

Tuner

A tuner for guitar and violin.

Is the phone's microphone good enough?

Which files can teachers upload?

Guitar Pro (.gp, .gp5, .gpx …) and MusicXML. PDFs and MIDI files can be converted with the free MuseScore.

Is my playing recorded?
