Questions
What to know first
Is syllable counting exact in every performance?
No. Singing can stretch, compress, or elide syllables, so use the result as guidance.
Does every line need the same count?
No. Variation can be intentional; the tool highlights differences for your review.
Can it hear my melody?
No. This version analyzes written lyrics, not a vocal recording.
