Welcome

Song One is a smart song editor that makes creating and managing songs easier than ever. The app offers a wealth of features to assist well-versed musicians in improving their songwriting skills and to help beginners to expand their repertoire.

​ChordPro-formatted files
​PDF files
​Paper documents (via the in-app image scanner)
​Website content (via the 'Add to Song One' Action extension)

Song One auto-creates transposable chord charts that can be auto-scrolled during live performances and optionally controlled via MIDI or Bluetooth page turner pedals.
Properly formatted chord symbols are generated as you type - with matching chord diagrams for any string instrument, in any tuning and at any capo position. Chord symbols can be repositioned via drag-and-drop. A chord matrix makes it easier to add advanced chords with extensions to lyrics. 
Chords may be auto-played on a virtual keyboard or a virtual fretboard with high quality piano, church organ and guitar sounds. Songwriters can quickly explore alternative chord voicings or look up chord types consisting of the selected notes.
Layouts can be quickly redesigned with freely configurable themes. Songs can be enhanced with metadata, audio backing tracks and annotation notes.
​
An integrated circle of fifths assists artists in the exploration of harmonic fields and the creation of pleasing chord progressions. A chromatic circle inspires expressive solos with over 500 scales.
Song catalogs can be expanded with scanned sheet music and PDF song sheets. All added material is organized, annotated and managed with ease. A background sync via iCloud ensures quick access to the entire song catalog on all devices.
Please note that the legitimate sale of sheet music is a vital part of an artist's livelihood. Song One provides you with the mechanism of importing text-based content and recognizing plain text chord symbols to auto-generate chord charts. It is solely your responsibility to ensure that you are not infringing upon intellectual property rights and that you are abiding by all copyright laws. Before adding any content to Song One from the internet be certain that you are in compliance with the website's Terms of Use.
