Description
Altarab — a complete Arabic music academy on your device. الطرب
12 tools, built around the maqam tradition and quarter-tone tuning that
defines Arabic music. Designed for oud players, ney players, qanun players,
vocalists, and anyone learning Arabic music theory in earnest.
TOOLS
Tuner — cent-accurate microtonal tuner with the 24-TET grid that Arabic
music actually uses (Yegah, Rast, Sikah, Awj, etc.). Includes a pitch-pipe
reference tone for tuning by ear.
Metronome — sample-accurate AudioContext scheduler, seven time signatures
(2/4 through 9/8), and a tap-tempo button.
Iqaa — a percussion lab with eight Arabic drums (darbuka, riq, tabla, duff,
khashaba, sagat, bendir, davul). Pick a drum, pick a rhythm from the 43-cycle
library, watch it play.
Iqaa Trainer — tap-along scoring for those 43 rhythmic cycles, with
tempo-ramp mode that lifts your BPM as you nail the cycle and a
build-your-own-iqaa builder.
Maqam Explorer — all 73 maqamat with structure, branches, modulation paths,
and a custom-maqam builder.
Maqam Comparison — side-by-side intervals and tuning comparison between any
two maqamat.
Solfege — sight-singing exercises with quarter-tone awareness.
Oud Simulator — Iraqi-floating-bridge oud with maqam-aware fingering and
Karplus-Strong physical modeling.
Scores — sheet-music library with synchronized OSMD playback, transpose, and
loop.
Composer — 32-step grid with maqam-aware engine, MusicXML export, on-device
Songs — bundled Arabic MIDI library with piano-roll playback.
Karaoke — stem-separated mix-along for selected Arabic repertoire.
Follow Me — play-along trainer with synchronized score and audio, tempo
0.5×–1.5×.
OFFLINE-FIRST
Every purchased tool keeps working with no internet connection. Sample data
ships inside the app, and entitlements live on your device.
ONE-TIME UNLOCKS
Each tool is a one-time unlock. The Tuner and the Metronome are free forever.
Other tools include a 60-second preview so you can see what you're getting
before you buy.
QUARTER-TONE NATIVE
Where Western music apps round to the nearest semitone, Altarab tracks pitches
at one-cent precision and renders quarter-tone accidentals throughout —
half-flats and half-sharps in scores, MusicXML export, and the Composer.
