Live counting
Watch notes accumulate in a typeface sized for the room. Track notes per second, peak intensity, and elapsed time while you play — then open Focus for a counter that fills the screen.
Peak Notes
A quiet studio for the browser — built for pianists who practice with intention and leave with a take worth keeping.
Watch
A quick look at counting notes, capturing a take, and exporting from the studio — the same flow you’ll use at the bench.
The craft
Scales blur together. Etudes disappear into the evening. Peak Notes turns motion into measure — a live counter, a honest clock, and a record of what your hands actually did. Optimized for USB MIDI pianos and the quiet discipline of daily work.
For the instrument
Plug in a digital piano — Yamaha and friends welcome — and Peak Notes listens over Web MIDI. Sustain pedal holds the room. Velocity keeps the touch. Your computer keyboard waits politely until you invite it in.
