IMSLP Practice vs DaCapo Studio

IMSLP/Petrucci Music Library, the public domain collection of classical scores that musicians have relied on since 2006. This app puts it on your device, and gives you somewhere to work on it. FIND A SCORE Search by work, composer or instrument, or browse a composer's catalogue the way you would a shelf. Open anything straight away, or download it and keep it. Once a score is on your device it stays there, and it opens with no connection at all. MARK IT UP Annotate with Apple Pencil or your finger: fingerings, bowings, cuts, a reminder for the next rehearsal. Your marks stay with the score. PRACTICE ON IT A metronome and a chromatic tuner sit in the same window as the music, so you never put the score down to reach them. Record a take while you play, then listen back against the page you were reading. KEEP TRACK Build practice plans, log what you worked on, and see where the time actually went. ORGANISE Group scores into setlists for a concert or a lesson, and into collections for everything else. Put them in the order you play them, and they open that way. BRING YOUR OWN Import PDFs, photograph a printed part, or bring a forScore backup across. Your existing library comes with you. HANDS FREE Optional head-gesture page turning, so you can keep both hands on the instrument. It uses the front camera, it is off until you turn it on, and nothing leaves the device. MEMBERSHIP A free account holds ten scores and ten hours of recordings. An IMSLP membership lifts both limits, removes the download wait, lets you upload your own recordings, and opens the commercial recordings. It also keeps IMSLP itself free and open for everyone who reads from it. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy - https://imslp.org/wiki/IMSLP:Terms_of_Service_and_Privacy_policy_(app)

DaCapo Studio is an integrated music practice environment for musicians who learn by listening and playing. Start with a song, break it down, understand what you hear, isolate the part you want to learn, and practise it at your own pace. Search Apple Music, import your own tracks, or use Shazam® to identify music around you. DaCapo Studio turns your music into practice projects where sections, loops, analysis, notes, recordings and practice tools stay together. Organise projects into groups for setlists, lessons, workshops or your own music collections. Separate instruments and build your own practice mix. Isolate a part to hear it clearly, reduce or mute it to play the part yourself, then combine your mix with looping, pitch-stable slowdown, metronome and Practice Assistant. Focus on the difficult parts. Create named song sections and practise them with A-B repeat, slowdown, loop playback and fast navigation. Practice Assistant can guide you through sequences with changing tempo, loops, metronome settings, layouts and instrument mixes. Built for playing, not just tapping. Performance Mode provides larger controls and quick actions for easy access while you play. On iPhone, a dedicated landscape Performance View offers an even more focused, customisable control surface. See what’s happening in the music. Analyse tempo, key, chords, beats and musical structure. Melody / Beat Track visualises melodic and polyphonic information, chords, beats and drum events. Separated instrument tracks can also be analysed individually. Practice tools within reach. Use synced lyrics and notes, multiple metronome modes, tuner, SPL meter and recorder. Review recorded practice sessions and keep projects and recordings available across devices with iCloud. Designed for teachers too. Share individual projects or complete project groups with students, receive recorded practice sessions through AirDrop®, iMessage, email or NFC touch, and return ratings, remarks and notes that appear during project playback. Imported projects can be merged with existing work, making it easy to exchange exercises and practice recordings. And when you just want to listen, JukeBox creates Dynamic Playlists for a personalised, ad-free listening experience. Optional hourly news streams can keep you informed without interrupting the music. Whether you’re learning a riff, studying a drum groove, preparing a setlist, removing your own instrument to play along, teaching a student or working through a complete song… DaCapo Studio keeps listening, analysis and practice together in one place.
