Fabric for music students

Scores, recordings, theory notes, performance logs, composition drafts, lecture slides, listening assignments, analysis worksheets, ear training exercises. Music students work across audio and text in a way most study tools can't handle. The recording from last week's performance class is in a voice memo app. The harmonic analysis is in a document. The theory lecture covering the same progression is in a slide deck. The listening assignment is a link you saved somewhere. The content types are varied, and the connections between hearing something and understanding the theory behind it depend on being able to find both quickly.

Upload your materials to Fabric. The AI assistant handles audio files alongside written notes. "Explain sonata form using the examples from my lecture." "Find every recording where we discussed harmonic analysis." "What's the difference between the two compositional techniques from week 4 and week 6?" Search across lecture recordings for specific musical concepts.

An AI tutor for theory, analysis, and performance

The AI assistant works from your lecture slides, scores, theory notes, and transcribed recordings. Ask it to explain a concept using the examples from your lectures. Ask it to connect the theory to a specific piece you're analysing. Ask it to quiz you on the harmonic vocabulary from a specific module. Ask it to compare compositional techniques across the works in your syllabus.

The assistant has memory across sessions. It remembers which pieces you've studied, which techniques you've covered, and can build on previous conversations.

Search across audio and text by meaning

Audio and video transcription makes lecture recordings, performance feedback, and masterclass sessions searchable by what was said. AI search finds material by musical concept across your full library: "the lecture about counterpoint" or "every time we discussed modulation" pulls the relevant moments from recordings alongside slide content and notes.

Record lectures, performances, and feedback

AI voice notes record and transcribe lectures, seminars, performance classes, and masterclass feedback. The professor's analysis of a score, the visiting performer's insights, the peer feedback from a performance workshop, all captured and searchable. See lecture notes and audio.

Annotate scores and analysis

Annotations let you mark up scores, analysis documents, and lecture slides with searchable notes. Mark harmonic progressions. Flag the development section. Note the relationship between the score and the recording. Your annotations are searchable across your full library.

Capture and organise

Save listening assignment links with the web clipper. Photograph handwritten analysis on the mobile app. Forward course emails to email-to-note. Everything feeds the same searchable library. Draft composition notes and programme notes in notes and docs.
