Features

Built for the people who chart.

Everything needed to take a song from an empty timeline to a finished, playable chart.

Every instrument

5-fret guitar and bass, 6-fret, 4 and 5-lane drums, Pro Drums, vocals with harmonies, and the PAD format used by Encore. Each carries its own difficulties.

Real-time highway

Notes scroll toward the strikeline with animated frets, sustain trails, and hit feedback. Adjust speed and split the view across instruments at once.

Full audio

Load a mix or separated stems, mute and solo individual tracks, and slow playback without dropping pitch. A waveform and spectrogram make timing exact.

Lyrics and vocals

An easy vocals editor built on a piano roll, with a spectrogram so you can see the pitch and place notes right on it. Lead plus three harmony parts.

Work kept safe

A recovery snapshot saves automatically as you go. Open several charts at once in tabs, switch instantly with full state intact, and share a clipboard between them.

Browser or desktop

Open it in your browser with nothing to install, or download the desktop app for Windows and Linux.

Every part of a full band, across five-fret, six-fret, drums, vocals, and the PAD format.
