Record. Improve. Playback. Get tighter.

Studio for worship teams

Multitrack every input on its own channel. Loop the rough spots, save each rehearsal as a version to compare and share, then run it all back live on Sunday. A rehearsal studio, not a DAW.

macOS · Windows

Always offlineYour whole library of songs, takes and stems lives on your Mac. No cloud sync, no login, no dropouts mid-service. When the venue Wi-Fi dies, Band Way keeps playing.
Built for bandsA rehearsal-to-Sunday workflow, not a film-scoring DAW. Every screen is built for a worship team on a deadline, with no plugin chains and no mixing-desk degree required.
One rig, two modesRehearse and refine all week, then flip one switch to Live Playback for the room. Same songs, same routing, same machine: Studio on Wednesday, Live Playback on Sunday.

The full feature set

Band Way covers the flow from a midweek rehearsal to Sunday playback — record, refine, version, share. Here's what's shipping today, and what's coming.

Current
  1. 1

    Import Ableton projects, key & tempo

    Open an Ableton .als and the song arrives whole: stems on their own tracks, plus the tempo, the time signature and the section markers. Eight more audio formats import too, and any song transposes or changes tempo on the fly.

  2. 2

    Flexible routing

    Map every track to any input and output on your desk. Each one goes out on its own channel, not a stereo mix.

  3. 3

    Metronome & bars

    A transport-locked click on a bar-accurate grid, with count-in, on its own output.

  4. 4

    Multitrack recording

    Capture every input on its own channel, straight off the desk — no submixes, no bouncing.

  5. 5

    Create sections, loop & refine

    Mark song sections, loop any part, and work the rough spots until the band locks them in.

  6. 6

    Versioned takes

    Every rehearsal is saved as a version you can compare, rate and revisit.

  7. 7

    Library & setlists

    Organise your song library, keep key and tempo on every song, and build the Sunday set-list.

  8. 8

    Web share & teams

    Publish set-lists and a web library, and share takes with your team by link.

  9. 9

    Chart & lyricsNew

    Paste a chart from any chord site, convert it to ChordPro with one press, and read it from a tablet on a stand. It transposes with the key and follows the song while it plays.

  10. 10

    Words-only link with a QR codeNew

    Send the band just the words and chords for Sunday. No audio, no login for whoever opens it, and you end the link when the service does.

  11. 11

    The band follows youNew

    Start leading and every phone holding the words link moves to the right song and section. A phone that loses the network keeps following on its own.

  12. 12

    Live Playback mode

    Switch to the Live Playback rig — virtual soundcheck through the week, live multitracks on Sunday.

  13. 13

    WindowsNew

    The same engine and the same files on Windows, over ASIO. Pick your interface in Settings and restart; the installer is not signed yet.

Future
  1. 1

    Cues (Guide) & Pads

    Guide cues and pad tracks, right in the session.

  2. 2

    MIDI support

    MIDI control for transport and tracks.

  3. 3

    Song arrangements

    Keep several arrangements of one song, with sections detected from the audio.

  4. 4

    Signed Windows installer

    So Windows stops warning about an unknown publisher before the app runs.
