A cozy pixel world for guitar players

Your guitar, in pixels.

Swipe across the strings to strum. Pick a chord, or tap Use my guitar and play your real one. The guitar on screen lights up every note it hears.

Swipe across the strings to strum, or press keys 1–6 to pluck one string.

Coming soon · Pixel Cam

Film yourself playing. Watch it turn to pixel art.

Pixel Cam redraws your camera as pixel art while you play. Turn on Notes make sparks and every note bursts into pixels. Record a clip and keep it. It all runs in your browser, so your video is never uploaded.

The whole picture

Every frame becomes pixel art with a limited palette, dithering and outlines.

Next

You in a pixel world

Pixel Cam finds you in the frame and swaps your room for a pixel scene.

Later

Just the guitar

A model trained on guitars tracks yours, so only the guitar turns to pixels.

The PixelGuitar™ app

Learn songs in a world that listens.

PixelGuitar hears your guitar through the microphone and answers in pixels. Play a carol in tune and the stable lights up; keep it going and the snow falls and the kings arrive.

Songs that react

Play along with carols, folk songs and classics. Each note wakes a different character, and the cleaner you play, the brighter the scene gets.

A tuner made of lanterns

Tune string by string or chromatically. Each string has a lantern that flickers while it's off and glows steady once it's in tune.

Riff to tab

Play a riff and get it back as tab, with frets picked to keep your hand in one place.
