The third part of my forScore mini series where I dive deep into specific features of forScore, my favorite app for reading music on the iPad. In this video I cover all of the functional tools forScore offers and show you a day in the life with how I use them. ForScore has everything you need to optimize your workflow as a musician.

I show you a wide variety of the functional tools in forScore: Display Mode (1 or 2 pages in Landscape, or full- or half-page turns in Portrait), Pairing Audio (attaching an audio, and changing the speed, changing the key, or looping), Metronome, Tuner, Piano, Buttons, and Cues. I walk you through some of my favorite settings to maximize your workflow. I also demonstrate Gestures, which are like shortcuts on a computer and are the true power of forScore.
