Rapid Learn
A practice-ready cut of every movement with the long rests removed, so you drill your entries without the waiting.
Continuous Rehearsal Mode
Movements play straight through, hands free. Rehearse while you drive, cook, or commute.
Loop the hard bars
Set an A–B loop over the bars that always trip you, and repeat them as many times as it takes — hands free.
Slow it down
Take a tricky run at 0.7× without changing the pitch, then bring it back up to speed as it settles under your voice.
Solo & mute, instantly
Hear your line entirely alone to perfect the notes, then mute it and sing against the others to test yourself. One tap each way.
Control the volume
Manage the volume of your part, the other voices and the orchestra to suit your practice. Emphasise your voice, push the rest back, find the balance that helps you learn.
Click along with a metronome
Turn on a click that follows the conductor’s beat, not a fixed tempo — so it stays with the music through every rallentando and pause. Four sounds to choose from, at whatever volume suits.
One purchase unlocks every movement
