    Every click lands where it should. Leave it running for a whole session and bar 400 arrives exactly where bar 1 promised it would.

    Even the practice coach. It listens and scores your session without sending a single note anywhere.

    Zen mode

    Turn the room into the metronome.

    Cosmos, gravity, rain, warp, radar, pulse and focus — seven fullscreen visuals that move on the beat, in whichever theme you picked. Prop the laptop up across the room and stop looking at numbers.

    Jam New

    Press play, and there’s a band in the room.

    A drummer, a bass player and a keyboard player who follow your changes — rock, blues, funk, jazz, latin, metal and more, in any key, at any tempo. It’s the backing track you never find: write your own chords, loop the eight bars you’re stuck on, and keep a cheat sheet beside you with every chord shape and the scale that fits. Record the take, and hear how it really went.

    Thirty seconds that build, played by the band in the app.

    Practice coach Beta

    Someone in the room who notices you drag.

    It listens while you play, scores the session, tells you whether you rushed or dragged and by how much, then adapts tomorrow’s tempo to match. It never needs a connection.

    Speed drill

    60 to 135 BPM without touching the mouse.

    Ramps that climb on their own — straight up, zigzag, or adapting to how you played. Countdown, cyclic repeat, and presets that save the whole exercise.

    Setlists

    The whole session, in order, on its own.

    Line up metronome presets, drills and jams as steps. Each one moves on after its bars or its minutes, or waits for you — with a count-in and a few bars of rest in between if you want them.

    Hands-free

    A footswitch, and you never look up.

    Map any MIDI CC, note or program change to play, stop, tempo or subdivision. Every action has a hotkey, and the floating widget stays on top of your DAW and your sheet music.

    Open it. Hit play. Disappear.

    macOS (Apple Silicon & Intel), Windows and Linux.
