Psaltica Praxis vs Pitch Pipe

Psaltica Praxis is a Byzantine chant composition and notation app for iPhone and iPad, built for chanters, students, teachers, and composers of liturgical music. Learn a hymn by ear, then by eye. Each neume lights up as it sounds, so you can see exactly which note is playing, where you are in the chant, and why the melody moves the way it does. A printed book cannot show you that, and a recording cannot either. Loop any phrase until it is memorized, slow the tempo, and inspect any neume for its mode, pitch, and interval. Write chant the way it is actually sung. Enter neumes on a specialized Byzantine keyboard with gorgons, martyria, fthoras, ison, expressive signs, accidentals, and time symbols, then hear the hymn play back in the correct mode. Edit directly in the score with cursor-based insertion, replacement, selection, copy, and paste. Add multilingual lyrics in Greek, Arabic, English, and more, compose in LTR or RTL layouts, and organize your hymns in the composition library. Notation and editing tools include: - Cluster-aware Byzantine symbol entry and editing - Customizable keyboard palettes and a More Notes keyboard - Petasti variants and expressive signs including Varia, Omalon, Antikenoma, Psifiston, and Eteron - Expression signs that take their reading from the surrounding music, with a different reading selectable note by note - A variant picker showing both sides of each sign's equation - Time signatures, automatic measure barlines, per-measure beat overrides, and mid-score tempo signs by preset or exact BPM - Interactive fthora mode selection with Greek mode names - Accidentals and fthoras targeted to individual notes within composite neumes - Fthoras attached directly to key signatures - Warning outlines for errors and out-of-mode keys, with one-tap replacement - Note Inspector with mode, pitch, channel, applied rules, and moria distance - Customizable notation alignment, plus an optional Book-derived profile matching the printed books - Sign and measure-bar colours, and Select All - Per-composition playback transpose and expression controls Playback and study tools include: - Byzantine chant melody and ison playback, with high and low ison octave overrides - Adjustable instruments, volume, tuning, tempo, and pitch bends - Selection playback and looping - Note-name display during playback and selection - MIDI export for playback and external workflow integration Printing and file tools include: - Printing and PDF export for clean chant scores at the choir stand - Configurable paper size, orientation, margins, scale, lyrics, title, page numbers, measure barlines, and time signatures - Composition library search and in-document Find - Importing, exporting, backing up, restoring, and sharing compositions, including opening .psaltica-backup files straight from the Files app Whether you chant in a parish choir, teach Byzantine music, or transcribe hymnography, Psaltica Praxis keeps the whole score on one device: compose the chant, notate the neumes, hear it played back, print it for the choir.
