- Guitar learners and casual song accompanists
- Worth noticing
- Its browser demo uses synthesized sound, not the app’s SF2 sound source; imported song charts must use MusicKeyboardSong v1 or v2 JSON.
Field notes
The site separates free playing from song-following, where the display can show previous, current, and next measures alongside chords and lyrics. It describes local song-library management, including search, rename, and delete, but limits imports to its own JSON formats. Rhythm settings can be previewed for a measure, and chord, sound, and control preferences can be saved as presets.
