Press start, then play the note you see.

Play the rhythm against the click

This is the half most free tools skip. Pitch does not matter here — play any note, or tap the body of the guitar. What is measured is when.

One bar of count-in, then play.
About timing accuracy

Your computer adds a small, unknown delay between the string moving and the browser hearing it. That means consistency — whether your notes are evenly spaced — is always measured correctly, but rushing or dragging is only as accurate as the delay estimate below. Headphones are strongly recommended: through speakers the microphone hears the click itself and counts it as a note.

Practise a piece

Bring in a piece as MusicXML — Guitar Pro and MuseScore both export it (File → Export → MusicXML, uncompressed .musicxml or .xml). Openstring splits it into short chunks, drills each one, then drills the joins between them, raising the tempo only when you play it clean.

What you actually know

Every position, coloured by fluency

Green is fast and accurate. Amber is correct but slow — that is not learned yet. Red needs work. Grey has not come up yet. Dashed means it is not part of this stage.

Holding you back
