Syncphonia consists of two apps: a Conductor app and a Performer app. They have been designed and refined in close collaboration with amateur and professional ensembles. We replace paper scores with a digital system that synchronises to the beat of a conductor or lead musician. The current bar and beat are highlighted so players can’t get lost, pages are turned automatically, and new parts can be distributed in seconds over a wireless network. User Guide here.
