Backing Buddy

Backing Buddy — Your AI-Powered Practice Partner

Tired of practicing alone? Backing Buddy generates full-band backing tracks in seconds, giving you drums, bass, piano, and guitar to jam with — right on your phone.

PICK A STYLE, START PLAYING
Choose from 10 genres — Jazz, Blues, Pop, Rock, Funk, Soul, R&B, Reggae, Bossa Nova, and Country. Select a mood and chord progression, and Backing Buddy creates a complete, musically intelligent arrangement tailored to your choice.

REAL-TIME CONTROL
Everything is adjustable on the fly. Change the key, tempo, time signature, or energy level — the track regenerates instantly. Use Tap Tempo to match your feel, or dial in the exact BPM with the slider.

LIVE LEAD SHEET
Follow along with a beautifully formatted chord chart that highlights the current bar as you play. Roman numeral analysis included, so you always know where you are in the harmony. Swipe between pages or let auto-page-turn keep up for you.

BUILT-IN MIXER
Solo the bass to learn a walking line. Mute the piano to take over comping. Adjust volume per track to create exactly the mix you need for your practice session.

SOUNDS LIKE A REAL BAND
Powered by a custom audio engine with humanization — subtle timing offsets, velocity variation, and ghost notes make every track feel alive, not robotic.
