Organise them into groups for lessons, setlists and collections. ISOLATE & PRACTISE Separate vocals, drums, bass and other instruments with AI-powered stem extraction. Choose quality settings, isolate a part or mute it to play along. Slow songs down without changing pitch, create A-B loops and navigate named sections. SEE THE MUSIC — SOUND SCAPER Explore frequencies and harmonics with a real-time spectrum analyser and musical keyboard. Use a played keyboard note, the current song note or an isolated instrument track as your reference. Zoom into frequencies and check intonation against your target. FOLLOW YOUR PITCH — DYNAMIC PITCH LINE Watch notes, glissandos and pitch variations appear on a live timeline. Compare your singing or playing with reference notes, inspect intonation and review earlier passages. Replay detected melodies as notes, with optional pitch rounding. For vocal practice, mute the original singer while keeping the extracted melody as a reference. Follow synced lyrics, hear the accompaniment and see how closely you match the song. UNDERSTAND THE SONG Analyse tempo, key, chords, beats and song structure. Melody / Beat Track visualises melodic and polyphonic information, chord changes and drum events.

Circular beats, off the grid. Most drum machines hand you the same 16-step grid. Patterning starts you on a circle, so new ideas come quickly and you discover rhythms you wouldn't have reached on your own. Sketch a simple beat in seconds, or go deep. Every track is a loop on the circle: • Give each loop its own length and hear polymeters drift in and out of phase. • Rotate a loop to move its downbeat and find a new groove. • Add trigger conditions, probability and automation to build variation into the loop. Patterning has been in development since 2015, and the original was a runner-up for Apple’s iPad App of the Year. It’s designed by a composer who has taught experimental electronic music for twenty years.
