Read better. Play with confidence. See Music Pro creates personalized sight-reading exercises for your instrument, listens as you perform, and shows you exactly what went right and what needs more work. Practice with acoustic instruments, voice, MIDI, or rhythm-only input. Choose recommended settings and start immediately, or shape every detail of your practice. PRACTICE WITH YOUR INSTRUMENT Choose from 29 built-in instrument and clef profiles, or create your own instrument by selecting its name, clef, transposition, and written range. See Music Pro adapts exercises, note ranges, and Audio Calibration to the instrument you use. PRACTICE AT YOUR LEVEL Practice Setup lets you control the musical elements that matter most: * Exercise length * Written range * Melodic shape * Key * Rhythm and syncopation * Tempo * Meter * Rests * Swing * Specialized note challenges Use recommended settings when you want a quick starting point, then adjust your setup as your reading improves. FOUR WAYS TO PRACTICE Sight-Reading Generate new single-line exercises for your instrument, clef, range, and level. Play them in tempo and receive detailed feedback. Note by Note Practice written-note recognition without the pressure of continuous rhythm. See Music Pro waits for each note before moving forward. Rhythm Practice Focus entirely on timing. Tap the screen, press a key, or use MIDI without having to perform the written pitches. Practice Dictation Listen to a generated musical example, then choose which of three written scores matches what you heard. DETAILED PERFORMANCE FEEDBACK After a judged exercise, See Music Pro marks the results directly on the score and creates a complete Performance Report. Depending on the exercise and instrument, feedback can include: * Pitch * Intonation * Rhythm * Note duration * Rests * Overall performance See which notes were correct, early, late, missed, sharp, flat, too short, too long, or played through a rest. CHOOSE HOW STRICT YOUR JUDGE SHOULD BE Different players need different kinds of feedback. Use one of the built-in Judge presets or create Your Own Judge to control how strictly See Music Pro evaluates timing, intonation, and overall performance. AUDIO CALIBRATION FOR ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENTS Every instrument has a different attack, harmonic profile, sustain, and register behavior. See Music Pro includes guided Audio Calibration that learns how your instrument sounds through the device's built-in microphone, helping improve recognition and performance feedback. External microphones and audio interfaces are not currently supported for judged acoustic performances. PLAY WITH MICROPHONE, MIDI, OR TAPPING Use the device's built-in microphone with an acoustic instrument or voice. Connect a MIDI keyboard for highly accurate pitch and timing input. For Rhythm Practice, simply tap the screen or press a key. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS See your recent and best performances, daily, weekly, and monthly progress, Awards, achievements, practice goals, streaks, and separate progress for each instrument. MAKE PRACTICE YOUR OWN Customize See Music Pro with: * Multiple Judge presets * Your Own Judge settings * Color themes * Swing styles * Cheers * Auto-Next * Master, melody, and metronome volume controls TRY IT WITH FREE EXERCISES The complete practice system is available while free exercises remain. Full Access removes the limit on generating new Sight-Reading exercises and Dictation sets. DESIGNED FOR SINGLE-LINE SIGHT-READING See Music Pro is designed for single-staff melodic sight-reading. Piano players can practice treble-clef and bass-clef material separately. Grand-staff and polyphonic piano performance are not currently supported.

No updates in two years! Fix this!! I was all about purchasing Tonal Harmony Pro until I saw that it’s from the same company. Tonal Harmony Pro seems like a game changer, even if it seems a bit “”non-intuitative.”” I can handle non-intuitive with time and patience, but when parts of an app simply stop working there’s nothing I can do on my end. I wanted to leave a one star review but I can’t in good conscience since the app was so great before it stopped working. Please fix this. Sincerely, A previously very satisfied and now a severely irritated customer. ### 2/5 — Perfection *2020-12-14* App no longer works now that the metronome won’t provide audible clicks except for the very first beat of the first measure. Other reviewers are experiencing the same problem. I’ve sent an email to the developer but haven’t heard a response yet. This problem is on all platforms - iPhone, iPad and Mac laptops (where I also have the desktop version installed). Likely caused by Apple operating system updates. Please fix!!! I love the app, but can’t use it without the metronome. ### 3/5 — Very good but... *2020-12-07* Hello, I’m Santiago Di Cristófano (Santi Dicri), I’m a cruise ship orchestra guitar player, and I have been using this app to practice sight reading, but the metronome suddenly stopped working. I can see the metronome going but it doesn’t sound anymore, even if I change the sounds of the metronome, only the first beat of the first bar is making the sound and not the others. I have been practicing with the app sight reading machine before, and I think you can get some ideas of improvements from that app. I think see music has some better stuff like the recording option, and the option of choosing in between triadic or steps music, but the other app has some features that this one doesn’t have as well. In the other app you can choose exactly the type of notes you want to read, and the key signature you want to read. In the other app you can add dynamics to the music. In the other app you don’t have the visible tempo mark always there and you have an option to play only with the metronome and not with the music going on. Unfortunately they are not making updates in the other app, so I decided to buy this one and suggest you some changes to make it better. And this ones are my ideas... Option to sight read more than 8 bars A + and a - to change the tempo accurately An option to read more than one note at the time An option to record myself and be able to listen to it after A community of people using the app made from the app ### 4/5 — Metronome does not click on iOS devices *2020-12-03* I recently bought this app for iOS devices, I installed it in my iPad Air and on my iPhone 6 but when using the app for sight reading the metronome stops clicking just the visual indicator works which makes the practice less accurate and more difficult. I hope there is a fix for it, that’s the only reason I’m giving it 4 instead of five stars. I will test the midi as well I hope it works. ### 3/5 — Does amazing things, but glitchy *2020-10-24* I’ve not seen another app that fills this need—generates endless exercises but also grades performance on a number of factors (pitch/rhythm)! However, it is rough around the edges and the app’s performance has degraded over the past month—perhaps due to OS changes?: 1) The awards page does not save the averages for the day anymore (never did save for the week) 2) The metronome sound now only plays the first beat and some times start of 5th measure. 3) Sometimes metronome stops altogether and/ or the app crashes. I would so love for this to work as intended. I have tried re-installing the app and contacting developer via email, but awaiting response. I have an iPhone 8 with no other programs running. Other comments: Sometimes the Correct % seems more reliable than others. (Is it most reliable at the default tempo? Just tell me if that is a known issue, so I’m not trying to figure out whether I am actually getting worse at slower tempos?) The progression is not transparent (does it give harder/easier exercises based on your performance?—if yes, what actions start you back at the beginning? Reopening? Changing a design parameter? Tempo? Not discussed in video tutorial.) The navigation is needlessly clumsy on iPhone. (Move the “conductor” away from mic/start icon or put it under Settings for those that want it. I keep accidentally turning it on and it’s annoying. Eyes need to be looking ahead of current note anyway. Always have icon for something in same place — e.g. designer at bottom left, create excecise bottom right etc.) As other reviewers say, I really would like to be able to pick key(s), similar to setting a user-defined range. See Tenuto for picking keys. The See Music score/graphic means what? Explain. ### 4/5 — New feature request *2020-03-30* For keyboard sight reading, why don’t you add support for playing both hands together ? ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-01-28* This app doesn’t even work. It doesn’t hear anything from the mic. Yes it has access. It also crashes after a few minutes of being open. On an iPad Pro. ### 4/5 — I’m already seeing small improvements! *2019-12-10* I have been doing my best to get better at sight reading on the guitar (which is the most difficult instrument to sight read music) and I have found this app to be useful in my practice sessions. If there’s a few things that I would like to see on this app is to have an additional feature for guitarists to read Bass Clef. Going through the list of instruments that I could choose to sight read on, I have noticed that the Cello has two clef choices. So why can’t the guitar? I would think this would benefit well for any performances that would require me to read in Bass Clef instead of Treble. Another thing I struggle with sometimes are the key signatures, instead of grouping them, how about an option that’s similar to the isolate button on notes and be able to practice certain key signatures instead of randomizing? Those are just a few bits of criticism, but overall I still enjoy using this app, and I’ll continue to use it every day. ### 1/5 — No Bass and Treble combinations for piano *2019-10-06* Please add the option to practice both treble and bass in one single example. ### 4/5 — Half a review *2019-06-09* I just started out with this and my first discovery is that there are things I need but I can’t control, like limiting key signatures to a certain range. I’m primarily interested in learning to sight read Irish music for a beginners session. That means I need only one, two or three sharps in my key signature. It also means that triplets are played as two 16ths and an 8th and not as uniform duration notes. I really don’t need and won’t use any music that doesn’t have one, two or three sharps. (I don’t say keys since Irish music is often modal) The worst is; I’m not actually on a viola but playing a five string violin. I read my music on treble and bass clef but it’s presented here on alto clef. I can live with that but my own scores are written with treble and bass with a one ledger line gap so C is in the space between treble and bass. I’d love to be able to have my music span both clefs with the ability to space the clefs as needed. Yes, the last is a bit extreme but perfect for five strings. Yeah, half a review. Limiting key signature choices is primary here. Between whistles, flutes that are really fifes, fiddles, button accordions and concertinas the common ground is one to three sharps and only soloists go beyond that. ## Frequently asked questions about See Music Pro ### What instruments does See Music support?
