Music support app
In addition to the newly launched apps "Guitar Tuner" and "METRONOME," Yamaha develops and provides a range of music support apps that assist instrumentalists in their daily practice and performances.

Released last year, "Extrack" allows users to play along with their favorite songs as if they were part of a band, offering features such as adjusting the volume of each instrument part during playback, displaying chord progressions, and changing tempo and key to support a wide range of practice needs.

By encouraging the everyday use of these tools before performances and during practice, Yamaha aims to expand engagement with customers and deliver a more fulfilling instrument-playing experience.
