Read full description

Layrise is an instrument practice player that transforms the songs you own from simply "listening" to "playing." Find the sound you want to practice from the original song, repeat difficult sections at your own pace, and check them against lyrics or sheet music. From playing by ear and minus-one backing tracks to personal practice and band preparation, Layrise consolidates your practice environment for each song into one place. **Focus on the Part You Want to Hear** * **AI Stem Separation:** Separates vocals, drums, bass, guitar, piano, and more depending on device performance. * **Stem Mixer:** Adjusts volume, mute, and solo for each part. * **External Stem Import:** Synchronizes and plays your own multi-track audio files. **Repeat Difficult Sections at Your Own Pace** * **Tempo Adjustment:** Changes speed from 0.50x to 2.00x while maintaining pitch. * **Key Adjustment:** Changes pitch from -12 to +12 semitones while maintaining speed. * **Loop Practice:** Repeats A-B sections or analyzed song segments. * **Metronome / Count-in:** Customizes beat display, sound, volume, and pre-roll clicks. **Understand the Song Structure Visually** * **AI Music Analysis:** Estimates BPM, time signature, chord progressions, song sections, and key. * **Timeline:** Displays waveforms, chords, bars, and sections alongside the playback position. * **Analysis Correction:** Edits chords and sections to suit your practice needs. * **Synced Lyrics:** Supports LRC and Enhanced LRC, highlighting current lines and spoken words in sync. * **Sheet Music / TAB:** Imports Guitar Pro, MusicXML, and MXL files with a cursor tracking the playback position. Supports multi-track display on iPad. **Organize Songs for Instant Practice** * **Importing:** Supports files, iOS Music Library, and Layrise packages. * **Library Management:** Organizes tracks using favorites, metadata, artwork, and setlists. * **Playback Controls:** Supports playback queue, background playback, and Lock Screen/Control Center controls. * **Sharing:** Exports projects containing analysis results, stems, and sheet music as Layrise packages. Audio analysis and stem separation are performed locally on the device by default, without uploading your audio files to external servers. * AI features require downloading models during initial setup or first use. * Available AI models depend on free device memory. Processing speed and separation quality vary by device performance, song complexity, and audio quality. * Certain audio sources, such as DRM-protected tracks or cloud-only files, may not be supported.
