SpolaSong vs Piano Effect

SpolaSong turns your iPhone or iPad into a stage keyboard: 55 real sounds inside the app — pianos, organs, strings, choir, pads, woodwinds, brass, guitars, basses and world instruments — ready to play, even with no internet. TRY IT FREE Play as much as you like for 30 minutes. The clock only runs while you play. Like it? Unlock everything with a single purchase: no subscription and no ads. OPEN AND PLAY The keyboard opens on screen ready to play. Change octave with one tap, make the keys bigger or smaller, and jump back to the keyboard from anywhere in the app. NEW: WORLD INSTRUMENTS Sitar, shehnai, pan flute, kalimba, steel drums and shamisen, plus accordion and harmonica, in their own category. LAYER UP TO 4 SOUNDS Piano and strings on the same key, or bass in the left hand and piano in the right. There are 19 ready-made combinations: one tap and you are set. FOR CHURCH, BAND AND STAGE Build your songs in sections (intro, verse, chorus) and switch every sound at once during the performance. Stage Mode shows song name, key, tempo and lyrics in large type. There is also a background pad in the song's key, a metronome, transpose, tuning and backing tracks. RECORD AND LISTEN Record what you played, listen right away, delete what you don't like and share the file. A REAL MIDI KEYBOARD, TOO Connect a MIDI keyboard over USB or Bluetooth and play with the touch of your hands and a sustain pedal. With MIDI Learn, your keyboard's buttons switch songs and sections. INSIDE GARAGEBAND SpolaSong is also an Audio Unit (AUv3) instrument, free, for use inside GarageBand and other compatible apps. YOUR OWN SOUNDS Import your own sound banks and use them in the same songs and sections. In English, Portuguese, Spanish, German, French, Japanese, Korean and Indonesian.

Put a song near your phone and Piano Effect tells you which keyboards are playing and what effects they use: tremolo, chorus, flanger, phaser, vibrato, Leslie, delay, reverb, drive, compression and detune. HOW IT WORKS Tap "Scan" and let the music play for 10, 20 or 30 seconds. When it finishes, the app freezes a verdict: every keyboard it found, its timbre family (electric piano, organ, synth…), its register, and the effect chain with its measured parameters — LFO rate, delay time, reverb tail. NUMBERS WITH ERROR BARS, NOT GUESSES Every measurement comes with its margin of error and its confidence level. When something cannot be measured with certainty, the app says so instead of making it up, and shows you what it doubted and why. PLAY IT YOURSELF Open the on-screen keyboard and it sounds with the chain that was just measured. Adjust every effect with its knobs, add the ones you want, and save your sounds by name. Turn the phone sideways and three octaves fit. Plug in a MIDI keyboard over USB and play it with your own hands, velocity and sustain pedal included. A SOUND LIBRARY BY GENRE 41 ready-to-play sounds: gospel, worship, neo soul, jazz, blues, bossa nova, funk, lo-fi, synthwave, 80s, pop, rock, ballad, salsa, cumbia, bachata, merengue, reggaeton, Regional Mexican and more. Plus your scans, saved with song and artist; search them and filter by genre or effect. ROLAND JUNO-DS: MAKE THE KEYBOARD SING With a JUNO-DS the app makes the keyboard itself sound: it loads its patch by number, writes the reverb, echo or chorus into it, or both. When you leave, the keyboard goes back to how it was. HONEST ABOUT ITS LIMITS The "Limits" tab explains what a phone microphone can and cannot measure over a full mix, so you know when to trust it. PRIVATE All the analysis happens on your device. Your audio is never recorded or sent anywhere, and there are no accounts. The microphone only turns on while the scan you asked for is running. NO ADS WITH PRO The free version includes advertising, which never appears during a scan. Piano Effect Pro removes it for good with a single payment, and everything that comes with it goes too: the app stops requesting ads, ad consent and tracking permission. Everything else is identical.
