Take your own choir home with you... ...or play every solo to a large orchestral accompaniment!

capella playAlong makes it possible for you to choose the musical backing you want and to take it with you into your living room! capella playAlong is the only software in the world that allows you to access an almost inexhaustible store of finished scores and to create your own play-along CD in no time at all.

Using capella playAlong, you can create your own play-along accompaniment CD to help you play your own part. And the great thing is - you decide which part this is!

What do you need?

Take any music file...

• Any MIDI file saved in a Standard MIDI Format (.mid). You can export files from any MIDI sequencer or notation program you have, or use thousands of free MIDI files available on the web.
• Any MusicXML file. This file format can be exported from capella, Finale, Sibelius, or any other notation program or scanner that supports .xml files.
• Your own or any other capella file: there are thousands of files available for free on the Internet.

All you have to do is leave out your "part" while you're creating the CD; If you want to play along to the CD as a duo or trio, you can remove other parts too.

You can also do the opposite: Create a CD on which your own voice is stressed while the volume of the other voices is reduced. Once you are sure that you have mastered your part, use capella playAlong to reduce the volume of your part until it is very quiet compared with the other voices and create another CD. Do this until you can remove your voice altogether.

Unlike other programs, capella playAlong does not tie you to your computer to practice. Play your CD at home, in the car, or rip it to your MP3 player. Your music can go with you anywhere that you want to play or sing.

capella playAlong has been designed to assist you. The software will take you through each step in a clear and understandable way, from choosing a music file to adjusting the volume and from stereo distribution to burning the audio CDs. Some of the program's features, such as taking account of articulation signs (staccatos, tenutos, accents), might not be relevant to you, so you can simply ignore them and move on. The most important thing is that you'll be creating your own play-along CDs in no time at all!
