Features
Synchestra allows you to rehearse and play in the best possible conditions. With a wide variety of customizable settings, you will enjoy the best quality of the sound as well as the comfort of playing with an app which can adapt to your needs.
Features you won’t find elsewhere
All music is rendered thanks to the best audio libraries, combined with our innovative technology that allows a fantastic experience at any tempo.
The scores can be printed to A3/A4/Letter/Legal format. The layout is adapted to make it “music-friendly” to play from paper scores. For example, page breaks are preferably inserted when the musician has at least one hand free.
The layout is fully responsive and makes it effortless to play on any type of screen. Furthermore, the user experience is optimized by an auto-scroll feature avoiding the need for manual page turns.
When you buy a work, you get access to the scores of not only the solo instruments, but of all the orchestra instruments as well.
For keyboard instruments, you can exercise hands separately, while the app plays the other hand.
For keyboard instruments, you can exercise hands separately, while the app plays the other hand. Organists can as well exercise the pedal part separately, or in combination with only one hand.
You can transpose the music up/down by up to 5 half tones, for example when your voice is not in good shape and you want to sing higher or lower; or when you are playing a concerto in A on a B flat instrument, because you don’t possess an instrument in A.
You can tune the orchestra to 415, 440, 442 Hz, or whatever other tuning, for example when playing a church organ with changing pitch depending on the church temperature.
Record your rehearsal with the orchestra.
The app can display different windows with different scores simultaneously, on the same or on different monitors. For example: your laptop of desktop shows the conductor score, and your tablet on your music stand shows your instrument part. That way, the laptop/desktop screen shows you the visual cues that, in real life, would come from the conductor.
Each instrument part can be printed on A4/Letter format, exactly as is done in orchestral editions. However, annotations will not be visible.
This feature will be available in September 2025.
When you play, ask a friend to adapt the tempo of the orchestra tapping the tempo on a touch screen. You can also use an external midi controller to change the tempo while you play.
The conductor score can be printed on A3/A4/Letter/Legal format. However, annotations will not be visible.
This feature will be available in September 2025.
When you set the orchestra as the follower (and you are in the lead), it will listen to you and join back in when you finish a solo musical sentence, your cadenza, or get a cue when to join back in after a fermata.
This feature will be available in September 2025.
All the classic features
Of course you will be able to use all the classic features any musical interface would offer. Check out a few of them in the video.
You can mute/unmute any solo or individual/group of orchestra instruments. You can also solo any instrument. That means you can have different roles in the composition: for example, as a violinist, you could play the solo part of the violin concerto, but also the Violin I or Violin II part, and even choose between the different divisi sections. As a horn player, you can choose which part (e.g. from 1 to 4) you wish to play.
This allows you to repeat a certain part of the work you wish to study. Set locators anywhere you want on the score (not necessarily at start/end of a bar). For example: if the musical sentence contains an upbeat, the upbeat can be included as well in the loop.
A work will skip a range that you specify (for example if you have 40 bars rest).
You can select a specific change of speed for a specific looped section of the work (for example, to exercise a difficult section);
Each work comes with a default “tempo map”, that outlines the overall tempo changes through the composition. You can customize it by adapting the overall tempo (for example: “play everything 10% slower”) or just a segment of the work (for example: “play that difficult section at 80 bpm, even it is written at 100 bpm”).
