## What is HelloMusic?

HelloMusic is a practice toolbox for musicians. A friendly white cat keeps you company while you work on timing, tuning and learning songs.

METRONOME
• 20–300 BPM. Turn the dial or double-tap to type a tempo
• Common time signatures in one tap, plus custom ones (5/4 defaults to 3+2)
• Over a dozen subdivisions — 8ths, 16ths, triplets, shuffle — picked from real notation, with adjustable swing
• Advanced rhythms (Pro): quintuplets, sextuplets, cross-rhythms, son clave
• Tap a beat to change its accent, or put accents on 2 and 4 in one tap. Separate click and subdivision volumes
• Count-in: a voice counts one or two bars before you start
• Tap tempo to find the speed of any song
• Practice timer: stops at the end of the bar when time is up

SONGS (SETLISTS FOR DRUMMERS)
• Lay out songs by section — intro, verse, chorus — each with its own bars, tempo, time signature and rhythm
• An odd bar with an extra beat? Change the beats of that one bar. Pickups count in correctly
• Free-time passage? Stop after a section and tap Continue to go on
• Big section and bar display, with early warnings before changes
• Chain up to 3 songs seamlessly; share songs with your band
• Create: arrange chords and sections with drum and bass accompaniment; Write for Me drafts sections and chords from a key and style (Pro Lv2)
• Standard: 3 songs, 12 sections each. Pro: 50 songs, 50 sections each, up to 500 with expansion packs

TUNER
• Live note, cents and frequency
• Reference tone: a piano plays A4, or a guitar plays the string you pick, for tuning by ear
• Quick guitar string select, or auto-detect
• Reference pitch 410–450 Hz, with 440, 442, 443, 432 and 415 presets
• The cat cheers when you're in tune

AUDIO TOOLS
• Import your own songs from Files, the Music app, Google Drive or a video (up to 5 minutes; 8 minutes with Pro)
• Change key without the chipmunk effect
• Speed 25%–200%
• A-B loops — save and name as many as you like
• 5-band EQ with presets like "Hear the bass" and "Remove bass"
• Export as M4A or WAV, the whole song or just one loop (Pro)
• AI vocal removal on export to make backing tracks — processed on your device (Pro)
• Keyboard and Bluetooth page-turner pedal support — one tap to restart the loop
• Chord analysis: detect the chords of a whole song, then transpose, simplify and turn them into a setlist song
• Vocals view: lyrics, chords and bars on one screen, and the screen stays awake while playing

RECORDING
• Record the app's audio and your microphone together, then adjust each level
• Vocal reverb with separate room size and decay
• Recordings stay on your device until you choose to share them

MUSIC THEORY CHART
• See how every note maps when you transpose
• 15 scales and 15 chords
• Sharps or flats, letter names or Do Re Mi
• Tap notes and chords to hear them on piano, electric piano, acoustic guitar, organ or strings (Pro)

APPLE WATCH
• Play, pause and start recording from your wrist; swipe to change the metronome's tempo and time signature at the next bar
• Feel every beat as a tap on your wrist
• Complication shows the metronome status and opens the app

PRIVACY FIRST
• Free to download, no ads
• Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, and can be restored on a new device
• No account needed
• All audio is processed on your device. Nothing is recorded unless you tap Record, and recordings stay on your device
