This app is useful for repeatedly practicing specific sections when practicing an instrument or singing, or when learning music by ear. You can record and layer your own performance while playing back a track, change the playback speed, place markers so playback starts from specific points, and set loop playback for selected sections. It can also integrate with your Apple Music, allowing you to use songs from Apple Music as practice tracks. For music files imported from Files, it also supports a 10-band EQ, so you can adjust the bass and treble or focus on listening to only a specific frequency range. To make practice even more productive, the app includes a variety of helpful features: * A setlist feature that lets you create practice lists for upcoming performances * A calendar feature that shows your practice history * The ability to add events to the calendar and keep notes for the day of a performance * A countdown feature for upcoming events to help boost motivation * Reminder functionality to help you stay consistent with daily practice * A high-performance metronome that supports multiple measures with mixed time signatures and note values * A tuner and tuning fork feature that supports 440Hz, 442Hz, and other pitches * The ability to attach PDFs and photos, with trapezoid correction for photos so they can be neatly stretched and saved as rectangles * The ability to annotate PDFs by hand or with Apple Pencil * The ability to leave notes for each song * iCloud sync, so you can save settings and sync them across multiple devices Pro Features * Removes the limit on the number of saved metronome settings and unlocks additional sound options beyond the default tone * Unlocks PDF sharing * Removes the limit on saved recordings * Removes ads We hope this app will help anyone aiming for more precise performances in all kinds of musical settings, including concerts, live shows, recitals, meetups, solo performances, ensembles, daily practice, and the real stage.

Compose Studio 譜面入力

Features
Read full description

手元のパート譜を、タッチ操作で書き写していくアプリです。 ■ 指の上下だけで音高が決まる 画面右下の音高パッドを上下になぞると音高が決まり、指を離すと確定します。 書き込む場所は譜面のカーソルが示し、なぞっている間はそこに下書きの音符が出ます。 指を離す前に音を確かめられるので、迷ったらそのまま動かし直せます。 ■ 押さえたまま、もう一方の指で音価を変える 音高を決める指を置いたまま、別の指で音の長さ・付点・臨時記号を切り替えられます。 臨時記号はダブルタップで固定でき、続けて使うときに押し直す必要がありません。 書いたあとの音符も、カーソルを合わせて音価を押せば長さを変えられます。 ■ 移調楽器はパート譜どおりに書ける クラリネットやアルトサックスのような移調楽器を選ぶと、譜面はパート譜と同じ記譜で表示・入力できます。 保存されるデータと再生音は実音なので、あとで他のパートと合わせても音が食い違いません。 ■ 曲の途中で拍子・調号・テンポが変わっても書ける 小節を選んで小節設定を開けば、その小節から拍子・調号・テンポ・練習番号を変更できます。 小節の追加・削除も同じ画面から行えます。 ■ 連符は3連・5連・6連・7連 選んでいる音価がそのまま連符の占める長さになります。4分音符なら1拍3連、2分音符なら2拍3連。 枠を作ってから中身の音符を書き込みます。 ■ 書いた譜面はファイルとして持ち出せる 曲は端末内に譜面ファイル(.musil)として保存され、「ファイル」アプリからも見えます。 共有シートで他のアプリへ渡せます。同じ作者の「プログラマブルメトロノーム」に読み込めば、 書き写した譜面をそのままテンポの設計に使えます。 ■ 書きかけを失わない 編集中の内容は自動的に退避され、アプリを閉じても次の起動で続きから再開できます。 すべて端末内で動作し、ネットワーク通信は行いません。広告もアカウント登録もありません。
