Tonara: Digital music binder and recording system

The Tonara iPad app wants to make it easier for practicing musician (as well as music teachers) to contain their musical scores in one place. The app listens to you perform/practice and shows were you are on the piece. It even turns the interactive music sheet for you. You also gain access to interactive scores (mostly for piano) over at Tonara Free Zone.

Like actual sheets, you can scribble on the sheets but in multiple layers. So, if you’re a teacher, you can even keep notes for various students on one sheet and just hide or show the appropriate annotations. It also allows you to share recordings on different channels and import non-interactive PDF scores from the Web, email or cloud storage sites.
