Quick Start
Download Practice Rack from the product download page for your platform. Install the desktop package and launch it from the system application menu. For best latency, connect your guitar or bass through an audio interface instead of the built-in microphone input.
Common Practice Rack questions
What do I need to plug in a guitar or bass?
Use a normal audio interface or input device supported by your operating system. The app is designed around local input monitoring and offline processing.
Can I practice in real time?
That is the goal of the desktop workflow. Actual latency depends on the audio interface, driver, buffer size, and operating system audio stack.
Does it require a subscription?
No. Practice Rack follows the Hannes Software desktop model: local app, website checkout, app activation with email and license key, and no subscription.
