Join the hundreds of thousands (and growing) of musicians learning music the new, fun, fast way.

Our mission is to create more music, by creating more musicians... by making learning music easier, faster and more fun. We believe that technology is a profound boon to the study, performance, and dissemination of music: processor speed, audio capabilities and mobility combine in a perfect storm to enable a greater musicality to a wider audience than never before possible.

We build the platform that we use ourselves to learn, teach and practice music.

We follow these 8 core principles:

#8

Only what you want.
Only stuff you want, nothing else. If you don’t want it, don’t buy it. Pick only what you want. No more song fake books, CD-Rom, community classes of stuff you don’t want. Pick and choose, deep and wide.

#7

The real master tracks.
We want to know what we’re supposed to sound like. We’re inspired by it. We try to emulate and imitate in. Then it should be a part of how we learn and experience it.

#6

Real-time scoring and feedback.
We want to know right away how we’re doing, not a week, a day, an hour, a minute or second later. Instantly. No lag time. And yes scores, glows, sounds do help.

#5

Any instrument. Even voice.
Let me use my guitar. No mods. No special cables. Nothing proprietary needed. Got a built-in microphone or common adapters? No problem.

#4

Yes to clarity. No to clutter.
We are single-minded. Just play the right note at the right time. We don’t ask you to learn esoteric symbols. There’s one thing to concentrate on: right note, right time.

#3

“Anywhere” means “anywhere.”
Don’t be strapped to a console. Take your music learning system with you- vacation, train, plane, automobile, on your lunch break, in your private lesson, etc.

#2

Multiple levels for everyone.
The gap between fun gaming and really learning an instrument. You don’t need a conservatory. From your first note to prodigy. From the first time you tune a guitar to shredding 32nd-note diminished clusters - that’s the scope.

#1

Quality is royalty.
Forget sifting through tons of tabs and piecing together one that works. Or squinting at grainy web videos. Just give us what is right the first time.
