How to turn performance recordings into a local collection

Name, split, and arrange recordings of your music.

Quick answer

Import a performance recording, split it by song, and save named tracks. Arrange them in a playlist and keep different performances without needing song identification.

Step by step

5 steps
  1. Import your recording

    Record the performance with Voice Memos or another microphone recorder and save it to Files. Use TuneTrace’s “Import Audio” for the full recording; its app-audio recording does not replace live microphone recording.

  2. Split by performance

    Use “Manual Cut” between songs. Keep announcements or applause with the appropriate track if wanted, check the transitions, and save.

  3. Name and save the tracks

    Use “⋯” → “Rename” for titles such as “01 Nocturne · Live 2026-10-10”. In “Save to Library”, select the tracks to keep.

Common questions

Does this publish an album to a music service?

No. It creates a local playlist in TuneTrace, arranged in performance order.

What if my original song cannot be identified?

Enter its details yourself. A missing online match does not prevent saving or playback.

Can I share the recordings?

Use “Share/Export” to export the files. Availability depends on the access shown in the app.
