Falling Notes Piano Trainer vs Piano Pulse

Learn, practice, transcribe, and edit piano music in one place. FallingNotes lets you load MIDI files, practice them with a MIDI-compatible keyboard, and shape the music directly in a visual falling-notes editor. Watch notes fall toward the keyboard, pause until you play the right notes, follow staff notation for sight-reading, and edit performances with precise musical control. Version 3.0 is a major expansion. FallingNotes is now not only a practice app, but also a piano performance editor. You can edit notes, tempo, velocity, pedal, tracks, and timing; transcribe piano audio to MIDI; transfer expression from one performance to another; and export standard MIDI files for use in other tools or supported player-piano workflows. Features: • Load standard MIDI files or choose from included songs • Connect a MIDI-compatible keyboard for interactive practice • Practice left hand, right hand, selected tracks, or the full song • Pause on notes and continue only when you play • View active notes on the staff for sight-reading support • Edit individual notes or groups of notes visually • Change pitch, timing, length, velocity, and track assignment • Add or remove time in the score • Edit tempo changes with a visual speed profile • Transcribe piano audio into editable MIDI • Transfer timing, velocity, and pedal expression from another performance • Compare transferred expression with ghost-note overlays • Smooth tempo profiles while preserving overall timing • Capture synchronized MIDI and audio takes for paired practice or dataset creation • Choose from multiple animated falling-note visual styles • Export MIDI files with standard tempo events for compatibility with other MIDI software • Export MIDI files in Steinway Spirio-compatible format for supported player pianos FallingNotes is designed for pianists, learners, arrangers, and anyone who wants to understand and reshape piano performances visually.

Any digital piano or MIDI keyboard with a USB or Bluetooth MIDI output. How do I connect it over USB to an iPhone or iPad? With the keyboard's USB cable and a USB-C or Lightning adapter. Can I play a song that isn't in the app? Yes: import its MIDI file, or an audio or video recording of solo piano, and the app transcribes it. What if I don't have a keyboard? You can play on the screen, or on an acoustic piano using the mic. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
