Try Soundslice, which lets you import any sheet music. It has a PDF/photo-scanning feature plus an entire sheet music editor built-in.

I’ve been working on it full-time for nearly 12 years now.

It doesn’t do the “listen to your performance” thing — maybe someday. But the other bits, such as practice tracking and interactive sheet music features, are all there.




While trying to learn Playing God a couple of weeks ago, I had a desire to loop certain parts and play them with reduced tempo.

I thought I'll have to dev something myself.

But I googled and discovered SoundSlice.

My practice technique has changed, I'm learning superfast thanks to SoundSlice. I play it on a tablet I've got a tripod in my playing area.

It's awesome to see the creator here, I didn't know that it's been going on since 12 years.

And I learnt that you're the co-creator of Django as well, it's cool to have the product from an indie dev vs an (enshittification loving) corp.

Just wanted to say thanks for your great work, your app has really made it much easier for me to learn faster tracks!


Hey, that's lovely to hear! Thanks for taking the time to share your story.

That's exactly my colleagues and I work on this — for outcomes like yours. Keep making music my friend.
