PitchShift moves any song into the key that fits your voice or your instrument. It can find that key for you, write the lyrics, and split the song into parts you can mix. Import a song, pick your key, and sing or play along. Western major and minor keys, plus eight Arabic maqamat: Rast, Bayati, Hijaz, Saba, Nahawand, Kurd, Ajam and Sikah. NEW IN 2.1 ⢠Find my key: sing or hum 10 to 20 seconds and PitchShift moves the song to where your voice sits. ⢠Automatic lyrics: the words, written and synced line by line for you, in Arabic too. Edit any line and only that line syncs again. ⢠Real names for covers: when a cover isn't recognised, PitchShift suggests the original title and artist, checked against a lyrics database. You decide. ⢠Full Arabic interface, right to left. EVERYTHING ELSE ⢠Stem mixer: split a song into 4 parts (vocals, drums, bass, other) and set the volume of each one. Mute the vocal for karaoke, solo the bass to learn the line. ⢠Live key and tempo: change the key or slow a hard passage down while the song plays, on your iPhone. Tempo never changes the pitch. ⢠Lyrics you type: paste them, tap along once to sync, then follow the highlighted line. Loop a section A to B. ⢠Splits run in the background: start one, keep practising, and it shows up in your library when it's done. MADE FOR ⢠Singers moving a song into their range ⢠Oud, qanun, violin and guitar players working in maqam or in a tuned-down instrument ⢠Teachers preparing material for students ⢠Karaoke nights, weddings and events, cover singers, choirs HOW IT WORKS 1.
