Supported sheet music files
You can add your own musicXML (.musicxml, .xml or .mxl) as well as Midi (.mid) files (currently PDF files are not supported!).

Perfect to practice your part
PracticeBird makes it easy to learn and practice your part of any music score when you rehearse for your choir, orchester or ensemble. The playback system allows you to solo or mute any part in the score. So you can practice your part first and finally mute it to play along with the other parts as accompaniment.

Master difficult passages
The loop feature allows you to repeat any passage in the score at any BPM tempo so you can overcome the difficulties and add fluidity to your playing.
