      Thanks sx poet for the info. I’m tone deaf so it’s impossible for me to match notes by ear. Anytune water access to my microphone so Anytune can always have access to the mic. Maybe access to the mic might help with matching the notes. The karaoke site is usually spot on but the right key is often not available

        No problem glad to be of some use. It’s a great little Ap for practicing, i’m learning to play tunes by memorising the music sheet, instead of looking at the sheet while playing.
        Currently on my 4th song, i cant believe it, but it actually gets easier to play by memory, the more songs you memorise. ie i’m taking less time to cover new songs.

        it’s a great feeling to play the sax along with a backing track and not having to look at the music sheet, the only other time in my life that i’ve had this feeling is when i first learned to ride a bike. it is so liberating to be free of the music sheet, and not be a slave to the music sheet. i’m in my sixties, so there’s no excuse for anyone not to have a go.

        The best part of the ap, is you can loop any part of the backing track and just practice sections of the sheet until you get it right, in my case until i can play the loop part without looking at the sheet.

          i was going to say, one simple way to tell if the sax is playing in the same key as the track, is to play up and down the major scale on your sax while listening to the track, you can soon hear if you are playing in the wrong scale as there will be a lot of discordance in all the notes. When you play up and down a major scale on the sax if you are in the same scale as the backing track, several keys will blend in.
