NoteStar is Yamaha’s application for the iPad that features hands-free, smooth-flowing, easy to read digital sheet music matched with real audio backing tracks, complete with lead vocals. NoteStar provides a playing experience that feels like you're actually in the band!

We recognized a void in the way sheet music had evolved. The evolution of mobile devices had quickly outgrown organic uses of sheet music, and the advancements of this technology clearly offered more possibilities than any music publisher had delivered. It is out of this environment that the idea for NoteStar was born. Here we had the opportunity to take advantage of the iPad’s dynamic display, touch response, and audio integration, and offer a sheet music experience that moved beyond simple page display.
Works with: iPad / iPad 2
Requirements: iOS 4.2 or later

Hands-free, smooth flowing and easy-to-read sheet music
Using Yamaha's screen-flow technology, you can play even the longest piece of sheet music without ever having to turn a page. This keeps your eyes on the music and your hands on the keys where they belong!
