What it is
Soundslice combines sheet music, audio, and video in an interactive player for music practice, teaching, and transcription. Practice tools include tempo changes that preserve pitch, looping, part muting, transposition, speed training, and a metronome with count-in. Its web-based notation and tab editor supports creating scores from scratch and editing imported ones, with basic use available for free. Users can import MusicXML and Guitar Pro files or scan sheet music from PDFs and photos, subject to plan limits. Notation can be synced with YouTube, uploaded MP3s or video, and supported Vimeo or Wistia videos, depending on plan. Teacher supports private courses, student performances, and private feedback, with 100 students included. Licensing lets organizations embed the player in a site or app. The Free plan includes unlimited slices and two scan pages monthly, limited to one page and 32 bars per scan. Plus costs $5 a month, billed at 5 USD monthly or 50 USD yearly, and includes 100 scan pages monthly. Soundslice is available on Android, iOS, and the web.
