What's New
Copy Lessons
Lesson assignment copy is here!
You can find it in the lesson view. Just tap on the icon that looks to have 2 sheets of paper. You will be asked to confirm copying the previous lesson.
ALL lesson assignments, Lesson notes and private teacher comments are copied from the previously entered lesson.
Attendance, books, lesson/event performance will not be copied.

Tuition Totals
Tuition Totals found in Paying Party only show current tuition totals. If a lesson event has ended, it will not show up in totals. (for Beth in Canada!)

Inactive Parents
Parents of Inactive students will no longer show up in the parent list. (for Margaret F. in Holly Springs!)

iOS 9 Friendly!
Various bugs addressed. My favorite one... videos are now captured at the correct orientation! No more having to guess what you're recording.

PLEASE NOTe:
If your iPad is running iOS 8.x, you will experience crashing if you update Moosic Studio to v1.5.3. If you have updated and are experiencing crashing, the only way to fix it is to update your iPad to the latest version of iOS 9.

App Description
"Holy Grail of studio management" Sandra Bowen, Clavier Companion Sept/Oct 2013
Moosic Studio empowers you to streamline your music studio business & consolidate all the tools you require to run your business in a single feature-packed iPad application.
NO MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTIONS!
If you are using a browser-based solution to manage your studio, I'm sure paying a monthly fee is getting a little old and costly! Moosic Studio costs a fraction of the yearly cost.
JUST DO THE MATH
If you pay $14 per month, you'll save over $128 per year...
If you pay $29 per month, you'll save over $300 per year...
If you pay $49 per month, you'll save over $545 per year...
... all by switching from your monthly service to Moosic Studio. Heck you can even buy yourself a new iPad!
MANAGE STUDIOS OF ANY SIZE FOR ONE PRICE
3 students or 300 students, it doesn't matter: the cost of the application remains the same.
