On time
The page turns once you’re in its last line, about a bar before the end. Want more warning? Set your own lead.

Play from your own PDFs, scans and scores. SheetScroll hears where you are and turns the page on time, the way a good page-turner would: never early, and right back with you when you start over.
How it works
Open a PDF, take photos of a paper score, or bring files from MuseScore, Guitar Pro, MusicXML and more. It opens right away, ready to play.
There’s no button to press. A score on the stand is listening: SheetScroll follows you through the microphone, or your digital piano over MIDI.
In the last line, about a bar before the end, the page turns. Read it your way: one page, two side by side, half-page turns, or line by line.
Never early
A good page-turner turns just before the end, follows the repeats without being asked, and finds you the moment you start over. That’s the standard SheetScroll holds itself to. When it isn’t sure where you are, it keeps the page where it is and tells you, instead of guessing.

When two passages sound alike, SheetScroll waits until the music tells them apart. The page stays put, and the status bar says why.
Stop, go back, replay the hard bars. SheetScroll expects the passages you keep returning to, and is with you again in a moment.
Features
Play from the PDFs and scans you already use, markings and all. SheetScroll reads them to follow along and never redraws your music.
Repeat signs, first and second endings, D.S. and coda: it follows the road map of the score and shows it to you on the jump map.
Loop the hard bars, practise hands separately, count yourself in, and watch your tempo over the weeks. Stop anywhere and carry on from there.
Mark up a score with a stylus or a finger: pencil, highlighter and the usual symbols. Every marking stays with its bar, whatever the view.
Put a concert in order and play it straight through. Stage mode hides everything but the music, and each next piece listens by itself.
Bluetooth page-turn pedals work alongside listening, and every press tells SheetScroll where you are. Connect a digital piano and it follows over MIDI.

Privacy
Sound from the microphone is analysed as it arrives. It is never recorded, stored or sent anywhere, and the microphone is on only while a score is open in front of you.
Your scores, markings, setlists and practice history stay on your device. There is nothing to sign up for.
SheetScroll sends no analytics and no usage data. What you play, and how often, is your business.
Importing, reading and following all happen on your device, in airplane mode too: on stage, in a practice room, anywhere.

Questions
The reader is, for good: bring in your music, read it in any view, write on it, build setlists and turn pages with a pedal or a tap. Listening and automatic page turns are SheetScroll Pro: $5.99 a month, $29.99 a year, or $79.99 once.
Piano and other keyboards are followed best. Strings, woodwinds, brass, voice and guitar (tab included) are in beta: they work, and they’re getting better. A digital piano connected over USB or Bluetooth MIDI is followed from the notes themselves, with no microphone at all.
No. SheetScroll moves only when you do. It listens for where you are in the music, so it waits when you slow down, stop or go back.
It tells you. When SheetScroll isn’t sure where you are, it holds the page and says so in the status bar, rather than guessing. Keep playing and it finds you, or tap the bar you’re on.
Yes. Pedals turn pages as they always have, and each press also tells SheetScroll where you are. The pedal and your taps always win.
Yes. Photograph or scan the pages and they open right away, exactly as they look on paper. Following scanned music is newer, so it’s in beta. Have a digital copy of the same piece? SheetScroll pairs the two and follows your pages as well as the digital score.
No. Everything from importing to following runs on your device, so SheetScroll works the same in airplane mode, in a practice room or on stage.
Start free and read everything. With Pro, SheetScroll listens and turns the pages.
