Choir Mixer is a browser-based tool for practising choral music. It plays separate audio tracks for each vocal part — Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass, or whatever parts your choir uses — and lets each singer control the mix independently. You can isolate your own part, loop a tricky section, slow the tempo without changing pitch, navigate between rehearsal markers, and adjust the balance to suit your ear.
Choirmixer works best with individual, separated tracks, most often recorded using a Digital Audio Workstation like GarageBand, Logic, Pro Tools, Ableton, etc. The WordPress editor needs to load the corresponding media files into the sites Media Library, as well as the score if you want choir members to find the score and tracks together.
Choirmixer is available as a WordPress plugin, contact Dave at davekauffman.ca for access.
Thanks to Moira Smiley for allowing the inclusion of her song “Keep on Going” with this free plugin.
