Clave Master vs bFaaaP Pro & Switch

Tap along with basic Salsa patterns and improve your command of clave: You can pick a pattern and learn to tap it out together with clave. Now, flip hands and master it that way as well. You will feel how clave works with your pattern, and have a better understanding of how your part fits. Why this app: Salsa music really begins to make sense when you know how the patterns of the various instruments go together. This app was built with this in mind! Clave Master allows you to easily choose a pattern by tapping on the music staff or by long-pressing the tap pads. Choose "None" on one thumb to get a single pattern mastered, then up the ante by adding a different pattern to the other tap pad! Start at a slow tempo, work diligently to learn the patterns against one another, and you will gain a deep understanding of how the patterns in salsa music function together. You will dance better, you will play better, and you will begin to FEEL the clave!

bFaaaP Pro & Switch turns head movements into piano sustain-pedal control, so you can play the pedal completely foot-free. It is the companion app for the bFaaaP barrier-free assist pedals — one app that drives two devices, depending on your instrument: - bFaaaP Pro (acoustic pianos): a motorized device that physically presses the real sustain pedal. It anchors with an inflatable "airback" — non-destructive, no bolting — and self-calibrates. - bFaaaP Switch (digital pianos): switches the sustain electronically through the pedal jack. Small, light and motor-free. Using the front camera, the app detects the angle of your head and converts it into pedal ON/OFF signals, sent over Bluetooth Low Energy to the bFaaaP device on your instrument. The same head-angle control works for both devices. This lets people who cannot use a foot pedal — including wheelchair users and players with limited leg mobility — enjoy expressive, pedal-based performance. WHO IT IS FOR - Pianists who cannot operate a foot pedal - Music therapy, special-needs and inclusive music education - Anyone exploring accessible, barrier-free music making HOW IT WORKS - Detects head angle with the front TrueDepth camera (ARKit face tracking) - Converts the angle into sustain pedal ON/OFF - Sends the signal over Bluetooth Low Energy to bFaaaP Pro or bFaaaP Switch PRIVACY - The camera is used ONLY to read your head/face angle. - That value is processed on-device, used to generate the pedal signal, then discarded. - No face data, image or video is stored or shared with anyone.
