Distribute music in seconds
Beam is a digital sheet music app designed for music ensembles. Administrators upload and organize music in one place, and participants have access immediately on their own devices. No printing, no copying, no manual distribution required.
Leave feedback directly on student music
Draw, highlight, and add text directly on any score and share those markings with the full ensemble instantly. Beam also supports private annotations on individual parts, giving teachers a way to leave personalized feedback that students can review, address, and remove as they work through corrections.
Control what your ensemble sees
Songs can be hidden from participants while remaining visible to administrators, giving staff full control over what the ensemble has access to at any given time. Hidden songs remain in your library and can be shown again at any time, keeping your full catalog organized and ready.
Live Mode
Pull up a score and instantly display individual parts on each student's device. When you need to pause, a single tap turns off everyone's screens. Live Mode keeps the ensemble focused and gives directors precise control over what students are looking at during rehearsal.
Collections and Setlists
Beam supports organizing music into Collections for quick access during rehearsal. Organize warm-ups, technical studies, chamber music, and other repertoire into labeled sets so the right music is always a tap away.
Beam Public Library
Directors can add royalty-free music to their ensemble library directly from the Beam Public Library — a growing catalog of titles available at a range of skill levels. New music is added throughout the year, including exclusive releases from composers.
Track practice and progress
Beam Analytics provides dashboards showing both class-wide and individual practice activity. Directors can review breakdowns by song, student, and time period to monitor engagement and recognize consistent effort.
Seamless integration with Arc apps
Beam is part of the Arc ecosystem alongside UDBapp and Geo. Accounts, rosters, and Groups sync across all Arc apps, so you only need to set things up once. Students using UDBapp can also view their sheet music in Beam without switching platforms — everything they need to rehearse is available through their unified Arc account.
