## What is Pistou?

A multi-track player designed for musicians
Adjust the volume of each voice or instrument independently. Start by listening to your own part alone, then gradually bring in the other voices, at your own pace.


Sheet music, always at hand
Attach PDF scores to each piece.
No more hunting through email attachments or forgotten folders.

Organised by choir
Each choir has its own space.
Members join their group, access the repertoire, and stay informed about upcoming events and rehearsals.

On any device
Phone, tablet, or computer — Pistou works everywhere, with no installation required on the web.


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6.0 — 2026-08-31

Volume sliders — Audio track volume sliders can now be dragged smoothly (not just tapped)
Download permissions — Choir admins can now control whether members can download audio tracks and sheet music to their device, from the choir settings screen

### 1.5.1 — 2026-08-27

Mixer bug fixes

### 1.5.0 — 2026-08-26

### 1.4.0 — 2026-07-31

Track & sheet music menus
Each audio track and sheet music file now has a ⋮ menu (tap the three-dot icon on the right). For tracks, the menu offers Download track and Edit track (admins only). For sheets, it offers View sheet and Download sheet. This replaces the previous small, easy-to-miss download icon.

Search bar clear button
The song and member search bars now show a × button on Android and web to clear the search field instantly, matching the existing behaviour on iOS.

Smarter audio downloads (iOS & Android)
Downloaded tracks are now saved with the correct file extension based on their actual audio format (MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV…), fixing playback failures that occurred when a file was saved as .mp3 regardless of its real format.

Offline improvements
The app caches song and track data more reliably, allowing browsing of previously loaded content when the network is unavailable.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-07-09

Pistou 1.3 brings eye button to show/hide your password, automatic device language detection, pinned songs now appear first in event setlists, improved audio player with labelled skip buttons, and various bug fixes.
