MULTI-TRACK AUDIO StageTracker ā The All-in-One Live Performance App StageTracker turns your iPhone, iPad, or Mac into a powerful stage companion. Manage your entire show from one place: songs, setlists, lyrics, backing tracks, video clips, MIDI, and click ā all perfectly synchronized. AUDIO PLAYBACK Load multiple audio tracks per song with independent volume, pan, and effects. Route audio to different output channels with professional multi-channel interfaces like the RME Babyface Pro FS. Adjust pitch and speed in real time without compromising quality. VIDEO & HDMI OUTPUT Add video clips to your songs and send them to an external screen via HDMI. Use idle screens (image or video) between songs for a polished stage look. Video playback stays perfectly in sync with your audio and click tracks. LYRICS & TELEPROMPTER Write, edit, and display lyrics with automatic scrolling during playback. Zoom controls let you adjust text size for any stage situation. Use play mode as a full-screen teleprompter ā on your device or on an external display. MIDI TRACKS & TRIGGER Create MIDI event sequences to control external gear ā lighting desks, synths, effects processors, or anything that speaks MIDI. Trigger MIDI events at precise moments during your songs. CLICK TRACK Built-in click track engine with configurable time signatures, count-in bars, and accent patterns. Keep your band tight without needing a separate click source. SETLISTS Organize songs into setlists with drag-and-drop reordering. Auto-advance to the next song when playback ends. Queue songs manually or let the setlist flow automatically through your entire show. DEVICE SYNC Connect multiple devices on stage via local network. Sync lyrics, setlist position, and transport controls across iPads and iPhones so every band member stays on the same page. SONG SHARING Export and import songs as .stgsong files ā including all audio, video, MIDI, and lyrics. Share via AirDrop, email, or any file sharing method. Full backup and restore for your entire library. WORKS EVERYWHERE Designed for iPhone, iPad, and Mac (Catalyst). Adaptive layout adjusts automatically to your screen size.

The 9 pivot points: Ā· **50 Hz** ā Depth & Weight Ā· **100 Hz** ā Warmth & Punch Ā· **200 Hz** ā Thickness & Mud Ā· **500 Hz** ā Boxy & Gargle Ā· **1 kHz** ā Nasal & Knock Ā· **2 kHz** ā Edge & Clarity Ā· **5 kHz** ā Presence & Bite Ā· **10 kHz** ā Sizzle & Snap Ā· **20 kHz** ā Air & Plastic Each pivot mapped to perceptual adjectives ā so you don't just memorize numbers, you learn what they SOUND like. Four training modes: EQ Workbench ā Interactive 9-band parametric. Drag nodes vertically for gain, scroll wheel for Q, double-click to reset. Frequencies are locked to the pivot points (that's the whole point). Quiz ā Blind pivot trainer. The app boosts or cuts a random pivot on pink noise at Easy / Medium / Hard difficulty. A/B between processed and bypass, then pick the frequency + direction. Scoring tracks your accuracy over time. Listen ā A/B reference mode. Set gain and Q on a single pivot, toggle A/B against bypass, and read the "Boost to..." / "Cut to..." cheat sheet. Train your ear by hearing the same EQ move at multiple frequencies. Sweep ā Manual sine tone across the spectrum, plus an automatic logarithmic sweep from 20 Hz to 20 kHz with the nearest-pivot readout. Hear the spectrum, build the mental map. Sources: Ā· Pink noise (Paul Kellet generator, 4-second loopable buffer) Ā· Sine tone Ā· Log sweep Ā· Your own audio file Ā· Live microphone (with feedback warning) Hearing safety built in: Three independent ways to instantly stop audio: 1. Mute button ā instant silence, playback can resume 2. Stop button ā tears down the audio source completely 3. Always: keep your master volume LOW, use headphones at safe levels Sine tones and sweeps are internally attenuated to 15% of full scale. Why is it free? Tomorrow's working sound engineers are today's audio students. We want you to learn properly ā not paywalled, not gated, not crippled. No ads. No data harvesting. Just a real tool. Where next? Ā· Surviving Audio ā Plan and design PA systems before the show Ā· Soundtools Pro ā Real-time tools during the show Three apps, one story: train, plan, execute.
