The Stage Dilemma

A split second is all it takes to ruin a performance. Here's how we fix it.

The Traditional Way

Hands-On Distraction

  • Broken Rhythm: Pausing performance to swipe a screen or flip a page by hand.

  • Loss of Focus: Looking away from your instrument to line up your hand with the screen.

  • Stage Clutter: Tangled stands, paper sheets falling over, and poor visibility in low light.

The Turn & Play Way

Hands-Free Flow

  • Seamless Transition: Tap your foot once to turn a page in under 100 milliseconds.

  • Uninterrupted Playing: Keep both hands on your violin bow, piano keys, or guitar neck.

  • Smart Stage Layout: Clear digital library with custom parchment and high-contrast stage dark mode.

Engineered for Performance

A powerful suite of tools designed specifically for the realities of live performance.

Digital Music Library

Import PDFs from files, Google Drive, or email attachments. All sheets are stored locally on-device — no internet required on stage.

Dynamic Setlists

Build custom setlists for your gigs. Drag and drop to reorder, and let the foot pedal automatically transition to the next song when you reach the end.

High-Contrast Themes

Read in gorgeous vintage parchment style or invert scores to Stage Dark mode (white notes on black) to reduce eye strain and conserve tablet battery.

Canvas Annotations

Draw warnings, chords, or dynamics directly on the pages with a pencil tool. Coordinates normalize dynamically, scaling perfectly across tablet sizes.

Ultra-Low Latency BLE

Pair in one tap. The app displays real-time connection status and pedal battery percentage, with background caching for lag-free page turns.

In-App Firmware Updates

No computer needed to update your pedal. Upload firmware binaries directly from the settings panel over Bluetooth using dual OTA safety slots.

Try the Interactive Reader

Simulate turning pages with the foot pedal, and test out our digital annotation layer directly in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about setting up and using Turn & Play.

The pedal uses Bluetooth 5.0 Low Energy (BLE). On launching the application, navigate to Settings or tap the Bluetooth icon in the reader header, scan for devices, and select TurnAndPlayPedal. The app pairs instantly and remembers the device, automatically reconnecting the next time you open the app.

The custom Turn & Play Bluetooth foot pedal is launching alongside the app. It pairs instantly over Bluetooth and works out of the box — just charge it over USB-C, pair once, and start turning pages. Availability and pricing will be announced on this page.

The application supports importing standard PDF document files. You can import directly from your iOS/Android Files app, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, or email attachments.

No, the application is designed to be completely offline. Musicians often play in concert halls or outdoor venues with no cell service. Your sheet music library, setlists, and drawings are stored entirely in your device's local sandbox, ensuring zero dependency on cloud services on stage.

When you draw on a page, the canvas coordinates are normalized to a grid of 0.0 to 1.0 based on the page's bounding box. When loaded on a different screen size or rotated between landscape and portrait views, the drawings scale proportionally, preserving exact placement on the sheet.
