HeadRush Prime includes a convenient built-in Practice Tool that you can use to play along with songs from your
HeadRush Prime’s internal storage, connected USB storage devices, or a linked Dropbox account.

controls to slow it down to making learning the song easier, or use pitch controls to practice a song in different keys.

of the Main screen, and then tap the Practice Tool icon.
