A downloadable tool

ScaleGhost is not a virtual piano. 

ScaleGhost is a Meta Quest app for practicing improvisation, melody writing, chords, etc. over backing tracks. Explore scales and learn about harmony using your real piano in mixed reality.

Refer to HowToCreateExercises.pdf for instructions on creating your own exercises.

Requirements

  • A piano, a MIDI keyboard, a synthesizer, or some other instrument with a similar keyboard structure.

Install instructions

Get ScaleGhost on SideQuest or follow the instructions below. 

  1. Download the .apk file and install it on your Quest headset (I recommend using SideQuest for the installation).
  2. After installation, you should find the app in "Unknown Sources" in your Quest's App Library. Go to App Library -> "Search apps" and switch "All" to "Unknown Sources".
  3. Run the app and grant storage permissions for custom content to work (this can also be done later in the Quest's settings).
