In Songs, tap Add and choose Files / cloud storage or microphone recording. Use only original audio or material you are authorised to copy, analyse, and share.

- 4
Practise with chords, score, and mixer
Use the position slider and section buttons to jump to the intro, verse, chorus, bridge, instrumental section, or ending. Adjust tempo, key, loop, and count-in as needed.
- 5
Share with your band
Select a private band in Shared Songs and add the completed analysis. Members reuse the same result, so it does not need to be separated once per person.

STEM SEPARATION
Four separation modes
2 · Pro 10
Fixed tracks: Vocals, Backing Vocals, Drums, Bass, Guitar, Piano, Strings, Wind/Brass, Synth, and Other.
3 · Pro 12
Adds Organ and Sax Solo to Pro 10 so organ and solo saxophone can be controlled independently.
4 · Pro Instrument Select
Start with Standard 6 or Pro 10, then check only the supported keyboard, string, woodwind, or brass instruments you need.
Processing and retention
Audio and generated stems sent to MVSEP are deleted automatically from its servers after three days and are never used for model training.

MAIN MENU
Features and controls
Songs
Add audio from Files, cloud storage, or microphone recording. Rename, reorder, reanalyse, or delete songs.
Chords
Follow the chord progression with playback. Use BPM, beats, bars, and section markers to find the part you want to practise.
Score
Create notation for a selected instrument and range. Play, pause, slow down, loop, correct, print, or export it.
Mixer
The mixer follows the selected separation and shows 6, 10, 12, or more tracks with volume, pan, mute, and solo controls.
Band
Create bands, invite members, share analysed songs, organise setlists, and exchange messages.
Settings
View plans, credits, analysis methods, chord-display options, privacy information, licences, and the app version.
Chords, BPM, beats, and bars
Chord names, tempo, beats, and bar numbers follow the audio. In landscape, section buttons help you jump directly to the desired part. Choose one-finger or two-finger scrolling in Settings.
Score
Select an instrument and range, then view standard notation or pitch-and-timing mode. Play beside the score, organise AI candidates, and export supported PDF, MIDI, or MusicXML files.
Mixer
Adjust volume, mute, solo, and pan for every stem. Move through the song with the player and position slider, or mute your own instrument for accompaniment practice.
Setlists and shared songs
Keep performance order in setlists and band analysis in shared lists. You can create multiple private bands and assign songs and members to each one.
Play, return and follow
Play/Pause starts at the current position or the selected range. Return to Start stops playback, clears the range and returns to the beginning. Follow Current Position resumes automatic scrolling of chords and score after manual movement.
Lyrics, parts and display
Lyrics toggles words in matching bars. Settings provides Auto, Japanese and English. Select the notation part, switch between Part Audio and Full Mix, then choose staff notation, piano voicing, guitar TAB or another supported display.
Speed, key and count
Playback speed runs from 100% to 50% in 10% steps without changing key. Key transposes independently from flat 6 to sharp 6. “1 2 3 4” is the count-in before playback; Metronome is the continuing click during playback.
Range, repeat and export
Hold the starting chord for the duration chosen in Settings, then drag to the end. The range turns purple and can be looped or used to create Score Beta. Purple X clears it. The three-line menu opens beat entry, chord-timing and lyric correction, PDF/MIDI export and printing.

HELP
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to connect a Mac?
No. The release version uses cloud analysis directly from iPhone or iPad. The development Mac option is only for development builds.
Are analysis results always accurate?
No. Separation, chord, tempo, bar, lyric, and notation results can vary with the recording and arrangement. Listen to the source and correct results when necessary.
Can I share one result with my band?
Yes. Add a completed analysis to a private band’s shared list. Authorised members can reuse that result instead of separating the same song again.
Can BandScribe download music from YouTube or streaming services?
No. BandScribe does not download or convert audio from video or streaming services. Use only audio you own or are authorised to copy, process, and share.
What happens when I cancel a subscription?
Cancellation stops future renewals. Data already stored on your device remains available unless you delete it, but cloud analysis and other paid features may require an active plan or credits.
