A DRUM ON YOUR SCREEN
The drum fills your screen. 
Each scale gives it a new colour. 
It is lovely to look at.

FEELS REAL
The notes are warm and ring like bells. 
Press a few tongues together to make a chord. 
Tap a ringing note again to make it quiet. 
Slide your finger up to bend a note.

No internet needed. 
No ads. No account. 
Just open it and play. 
At the Airport. In bed. In the park.

PLAY WITH THE SOUND

Each dial has a little picture that moves. 
Find a sound you love and save it.

PIANO, GUITAR AND BASS
Open a piano, guitar or bass on the screen. 
See which keys light up as you play. 
Then play the same thing on your own instrument.

LEARN AS YOU GO
Turn on chord mode and see which notes go together. 
Every scale has a short story. 
A little tour shows you around the first time.
