Singscope for iPhone

App Summary and Category

Singscope is a complimentary iPhone application created by Springwell Music LLC. It’s listed in the Multimedia section under Music & Radio and is intended to help vocalists assess and improve their pitch accuracy by visualizing sung notes on the musical scale.

How to Operate the App

• Open the app and tap the microphone icon to begin.
• Sing into your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch while the app listens.
• Watch the live pitch visualization as the app captures your voice.
• Use pinch and drag gestures to zoom and move around the displayed graph for a closer view.

Principal Capabilities

• Playback of recorded takes while viewing the corresponding pitch trace, so you can hear and see where adjustments are needed.
• Live computation and drawing of pitch contours on a timeline, giving immediate visual feedback as you sing.
• Presentation of pitch information in standard musical notes (C, D, E, F, G, A, B) so you can relate your output to familiar scale degrees.
• A scrolling waveform and pitch display that can be zoomed and panned for detailed inspection.
• A history of recent vocal recordings saved for later comparison and review.

Reviewing and Improving Your Singing

Use the playback feature to listen to a recording while watching its pitch curve; this makes identifying flat or sharp passages straightforward. Compare successive recordings to measure progress, and zoom into sections where pitch wavers to focus practice on specific moments.
