Everything you need to rehearse, edit, and perform with SynchroPlay.

Performance Player & Hotkeys

SynchroPlay scrolls chords and lyrics in sync with your audio. As timecodes advance, the current lyric line glows and centers itself on your display.

Automated MIDI Program Changes

Connect a USB MIDI interface, synth, modeler (Kemper, Helix, Quad Cortex), or guitar pedal rig. SynchroPlay triggers automated patch changes right when your backing track hits the cue:

[00:45.00] {midi: PC, 12, 1, "Lead Tone"}

Format: {midi: PC, <Program 0-127>, <Channel 1-16 (Optional)>, "<Description>"}

Live Band Broadcast

Go to the Live tab to show your room's permanent QR code. Bandmates scan it on their smartphones or iPads — no login required. They will follow along in real-time as you start songs and switch setlist tracks.
