What Nitesong is
Nitesong is a web-based songwriting app for creating, organizing, and completing songs. Its five notation editors cover lyrics, chord progressions, guitar tablature, drum sequencing, and piano roll. Other tools include a scale fretboard, playable keyboard, circle of fifths, guitar tuner, metronome, notes, and chat. Songs can be tagged, grouped into projects, and moved through Idea, Draft, In Progress, and Finished stages. Users can invite owners or editors to songs or projects, exchange real-time chat messages with @mentions, and follow changes in activity feeds. MP3 and WAV recordings can be attached as references, while drum patterns can be exported as MIDI for a DAW. The Free plan costs nothing and allows three songs, with all five notation editors, keyboard, tuner, and metronome. Pro costs $9 per month; Cloud costs $14 per month. Plans are billed monthly through Stripe and can be canceled anytime without fees. Tyler Cyert is named in the site footer.
