Playback - OKTAV Strings 🎻

Choose what you hear during playback. Here you'll learn where to find the playback settings and what you can adjust.

How to use playback options

In the “Playback” menu, you can adjust the volume of each sound independently:

  • Metronome: Set how loud the metronome should be.

  • Violin or cello: Adjust the volume of your instrument part or turn it off completely, for example if you want to play the melody yourself.

  • Piano accompaniment: Adjust the volume of the piano accompaniment or turn it off completely.

By default, playback follows the selected sheet music view: In Tutti view you hear your violin or cello part together with the piano accompaniment, while in Solo view you hear only your instrument part. When you switch between Tutti and Solo, playback resets to this default setting.

💡 Tip: Turn off your violin or cello part and play along with the piano accompaniment yourself – this lets you practice as if you had a real accompanist.

Where can I find playback settings?

  • Web browser: at the top right of the navigation bar, directly next to the tempo setting (BPM).

  • App (iOS and Android): at the far right of the bottom navigation bar, next to the loop function.
