Your sheet music, alive.

Keep your sheet music, fingerings, annotations, looped videos, and practice tracking in one place. If you teach, leave video feedback directly on the score. Free to start. No app to install.

How It Works

Upload Your Music

Add any PDF score, tab, lead sheet, or exercise. Your practice space is ready in seconds.

Mark Up the Page

Add fingerings, bowings, dynamics, symbols, text notes, and visual cues exactly where you need them. Fingerings are especially fast: click and hold anywhere on the score, drag to a printed finger number already on the page, then release to drop that fingering in place. Resize it instantly with the mouse wheel. No typing. No digging through slow menus.

Practice With a Reference

Paste a YouTube performance and place it beside your score, so you can hear, compare, and learn in context.

Loop the Hard Parts

Create precise loops, slow them down, and use Auto-Speed to build control gradually instead of forcing tempo too soon.

Track Real Practice

Use the built-in timer and stats dashboard to see your sessions, streaks, total time, and long-term progress.

Teach on the score, not across five different apps.

Every teacher plan includes the full practice toolkit plus lesson delivery, student management, and video feedback. Your students access assigned lessons at no extra cost.

Record Video Feedback

Tap anywhere on the score and leave a short video explanation exactly where the student needs it.

Record Play-Along Demos

Show the passage once, save it inside the lesson, and let students replay it as many times as they need.

Create YouTube Practice Loops

Turn great performances into loopable study material your students can slow down, repeat, and absorb.

Annotate the Score Clearly

Mark fingerings, rhythm reminders, phrasing, articulation, and text notes directly on the PDF.

Assign the Full Lesson in One Click

Send the score, annotations, videos, and loops together as one lesson instead of piecing it together manually.

Collect Student Video Submissions

Students can record their practice and send it back inside the lesson, so feedback stays connected to the assignment.

Review Everything in One Place

Watch submissions, check practice activity, and prepare the next lesson without hunting through messages and attachments.

Track Your Studio

See who practiced, who submitted, and who needs follow-up before the next lesson begins.

Two Ways to Use Practice Canvas

Use it as your full teaching system or as the layer that makes practice between lessons actually work.

All-in-One Teaching Platform

A structured weekly teaching system — students submit on their assigned day, you respond within 24 hours. No live calls required.

  • Students submit a practice video on their assigned day each week — no scheduling calls or Zoom needed
  • You review submissions and respond—typically by the next day—with video feedback placed directly on the score. Simply click a measure to start recording and click again to upload, making it fast and easy to guide students exactly where they need help.
  • Missed submission? You decide — send a supplemental lesson or skip that week. You stay in control.
  • Create reusable demo loops and YouTube reference snippets students can slow down and repeat
  • Track who submitted, who's progressing, and who needs a nudge — all from one dashboard

Ideal for: teachers who want a professional, accountable async studio with clear weekly rhythms and fast feedback turnaround.

Supplement to Live Lessons

Keep your in-person or live online lessons, but make the time between them more productive.

  • Add short video reminders and score notes throughout the lesson, so the guidance is already built in before the lesson ends.
  • Create loops and reference clips so students know exactly what to practice.
  • See practice activity before the next lesson starts.
  • Reduce repeated explaining from week to week.
  • Fit it into in-person, Zoom, Skype, or FaceTime teaching without changing your whole setup.

Best for teachers who want stronger follow-through between live lessons.

Why Practice Canvas Works

Practice with better focusKeep the score, the reference, and your instructions in one place instead of splitting attention across tabs and apps.
Hear the details more clearlyLoop and slow down the exact passage you are learning so rhythm, timing, and phrasing become easier to catch.
Remember what to work onAnnotations on the page make each practice session more intentional and less guesswork-driven.
See progress over timeTracking sessions and streaks gives practice visible momentum, not just vague effort.
Give students clearer feedbackTeachers can point to the exact measure, leave a video there, and remove ambiguity from the lesson.
Teach more efficientlyReuse great explanations, assign lessons faster, and spend less time repeating the same setup week after week.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is meant to be your all-in-one practice space. Your sheet music, fingerings, annotations, looped videos, and lesson guidance all stay in one place instead of being scattered across books, loose pages, and separate apps. That makes practice more efficient and far less messy: you can move from one piece to another quickly, reopen a piece right where you left off, and keep your practice flow intact. It can be especially useful if you connect your computer to a TV so everything appears large and easy to see. A screen around 30 inches works especially well, but it is not required. It also works well on a regular laptop screen. On top of that, the built-in practice tracking helps you measure your work and stay motivated over time.

No. In teacher plans, students can access assigned lessons, feedback videos, and practice materials at no extra cost. The teacher pays for the studio tools.

It can, but it does not have to. Some teachers use Practice Canvas as a full asynchronous teaching system. Others use it alongside in-person or online lessons to make practice between lessons more focused and more accountable.

Everything stays attached to the score. Instead of scattering lesson material across text messages, email, and separate video apps, the student opens one lesson and sees the annotations, loops, videos, and instructions in context.

It is designed to reduce repeated work, not add to it. Teachers can annotate during the lesson, record short score-based reminders in context, reuse strong materials, and send everything together instead of rebuilding the same instructions every week.

Very fast. You can add annotations directly where they belong, and fingerings are especially quick: click and hold on the score, drag to a printed finger number already on the page, release to place it, and resize it with the mouse wheel. No typing and no slow menu workflow. Video feedback is also extremely fast: click a specific measure, the camera starts recording immediately, then click again to upload. In practice, that means a teacher can leave a useful video right on the score in just two clicks.

Yes. Free Practice gives you a no-credit-card entry point, and every paid plan starts with a free 14-day trial so you can test the workflow before committing.

Yes. Click the profile icon, open Manage Membership, and from there you can upgrade, downgrade, switch between monthly and annual billing, or choose Cancel Membership. If you cancel, the cancellation takes effect immediately. That gives you room to start small, test the workflow, and move to the plan that fits your practice or studio as it grows.
