Everything you need on stage

A score reader built around how musicians actually read.

Import any PDF, mark it up exactly the way you would on paper, and keep every detail in sync across rehearsal and performance.

Read any sheet music

Open any PDF score and read it the way you would on paper - single pages or side-by-side spreads, smooth zoom, and the page you last left open is always one tap away.

Markup that feels natural

Pen, highlighter, stamps and tap-to-jump circles for cues. Mark up your scores the way you would on paper, undo anything in a tap, and pick from a full library of music symbols.

Performance mode

Hide every menu and read straight from the score. Accidental swipes are filtered out, and a quick hold in the center brings the controls back when you need them.

Bookmarks & setlists

Pin the pages that matter and chain your scores into a setlist for the gig. Move forward or back through the night and Overture always lands on the right page.

A library that finds things for you

Search across composer, genres and tags. Sort by name, composer, date added, or what you opened last. Rate your scores and flag the ones you need next week.

Organize pages, your way

Reorder, rotate, crop or remove pages - saved per score, so every book stays exactly how you want it. One tap trims the white borders from the entire score.

ForScore import

Bring your entire ForScore library across in one shot. Setlists, tags, tempos, keys, ratings - even the cross-document jump buttons follow you over.

Share & print

Send a PDF - original or with your annotations baked in - to AirDrop, email, or the print dialog. Add page numbers automatically if you like.

Practice tools, built in

Metronome, tuner & 88-key piano - right where you need them.

The metronome, tuner and piano all sit at the bottom of the screen - resize each one to taste so they fit alongside the music. No more juggling apps mid-rehearsal.

Metronome

Locked-in tempo, with feel.

Set the tempo by tapping along, choose any time signature, and shape the accents to match the music. A clear visual pulse keeps everyone together.

  • Tap to set the tempo - Overture works out the BPM
  • Quarter, eighth, sixteenth, triplets and more
  • Pick which beats get the accent
  • See the pulse, hear the click

Tuner

A tuner that just works.

Play a note and Overture tells you exactly where you are - flat, sharp or right on. Set your reference pitch once and tune up without ever leaving your score.

  • Reads any note across the whole range
  • Tells you the exact pitch and how far off you are
  • Pick your reference - anywhere from 430 to 450 Hz
  • Big, calm gauge that’s easy to read at a glance
Piano

A real 88-key piano, on tap.

Pop up a full 88-key keyboard right over your score. Play chords with multiple fingers, check a tricky passage, or find your starting note - all without leaving the page.

  • All 88 keys, with the real black/white layout
  • Play chords with multiple fingers
  • Rich, sampled piano sound - not a MIDI-sound
  • Resize it to fit your reach and the score

Overture conductor group page
Conductor Groups

Rehearse together, annotate in realtime.

The conductor uploads the score and splits it into parts. Each musician sees only their own part - with the conductor’s markings appearing live, even if someone loses signal for a moment.

  • Invite by name or email
  • Assign musicians to their parts in seconds
  • Annotations from the conductor appear instantly
  • Works even when the Wi-Fi gets shaky

Questions

Frequently asked.

Where are my scores stored?
On your device. Your library stays with you and works offline - nothing is uploaded unless you join an ensemble group, and even then only the parts the conductor shares are synced.
How do annotations work?
Pick a tool, color and width from the floating toolbar, then draw directly on the page. Every stroke is undoable - Overture keeps a full annotation history for each score.
Can I import my ForScore library?
Yes - ForScore import (Pro) brings your whole library across in one shot. Setlists, tags, tempos, keys, ratings and even your jump buttons all follow you over, with no loss of quality.
What does Pro unlock?
Unlimited PDFs, scan-to-PDF, page reordering, auto-crop all, share & print, custom stamps, backup & restore, ForScore import, multi-score tabs, and the ability to create Conductor Groups.
How does Conductor Groups work?
A conductor uploads the work and splits it into parts. Musicians join, get assigned to their parts, and see the conductor’s markings appear live as they’re drawn. Everything keeps working if someone briefly loses signal.
Does it sound like a real piano?
Yes - the built-in piano uses a high-quality sampled grand, not a MIDI-sound. You can play full chords with multiple fingers and use it as a melodic reference or interactive practice aid.
Can I use a page-turner pedal?
Yes. Any Bluetooth pedal that sends arrow or page-up / page-down keys will turn pages out of the box. You can also assign your own gestures - multi-finger taps and edge holds - to anything you like.
What is Performance Mode?
A distraction-free reading mode for the stage. Every menu hides away, accidental swipes are filtered out, and a short press in the center brings the controls back when you need them.
