About this app

Play a real trumpet on your phone, and actually learn to play it.

A REAL TRUMPET, NOT A TOY
Every note is a real recording of a professional trumpet, in three dynamics, with the tongued attack of a real player. Press the pearls with three fingers, blow with the breath pad: left is soft, right is loud. Slide up for the higher harmonics, exactly like the lips do.

LEARN, ONE NOTE AT A TIME
75 lessons in five paths, in the order trumpet teachers really use: your first note, the second, the valves one by one, then scales in every common key, technique from Arban and Clarke, and the road to improvising with pentatonics, blues scales and a 12-bar form. Notes ride down a lane, you hit them in time, and the app scores every one.

OWN A TRUMPET? PLAY IT
Switch to Real trumpet and the microphone becomes the teacher's ear: the app hears which note you play and judges pitch and timing on the same lane.

FIVE FINISHES
Classic gold lacquer, silver plate, black lacquer with gold engraving, vintage raw brass, rose gold. A studio-lit 3D instrument that responds to every touch.

• Legato, vibrato, tonguing, dynamics from pianissimo to sforzando
• Metronome, recorder, a library of your takes
• Written pitch for B flat trumpet, or concert pitch, your choice
• Ultra-low latency, multi-touch, haptics
