Importing, scanning & annotating
PDF annotation built for rehearsal speed
General PDF annotation is designed for documents you read once. Music is annotated repeatedly, by different people, for different performances — which needs a different model.
Write at rehearsal pace
Ink appears immediately with palm rejection on, so a bar number or a cut goes down between phrases rather than after the run-through.
Non-destructive by default
Markings are a layer. Clear them for a new season without re-importing the score.
Distribute the decisions
With Pro, the section leader's markings reach every player's device instead of being called out from the front of the room.
Try it on your own scores
Import PDF scores, add annotations, build setlists and turn pages hands-free. StageMate is available for Apple devices and Android. Features, cloud services and Pro purchases differ by platform; check the current plan before buying.
