Live-music FAQ

Straight answers for people who live for live music.

No hype, no overpromising. Here is honestly what Chord can do in a packed crowd, what it can’t, and how we make sure you never lose the moment or the track either way.

In the crowd

It listens for the track in the background and pre-attaches it while you film, so most of the time the song is already there when you stop recording. In a very loud or noisy crowd, detection isn’t guaranteed — we won’t pretend otherwise. So you can always add the song yourself in a couple of taps. Either way, you never lose the track to a missed detection.

Capturing works offline. Your moments save straight to your phone in the middle of a field with no bars, and they sync quietly once you’re back on data or wifi. The night is safe before you ever reconnect.

Capture is quick and lightweight — you’re saving 30-second moments, not livestreaming the whole set. It’s built to dip in, hold the moment, and get out of the way, so you can keep it running across a long night without watching the battery drain.

Your footage, your night

On Max, your 4K originals are kept at full quality — no transcode-down, no quietly compressing your best clip. It’s built for the people who actually film the show and want the footage to hold up years later.

Anywhere you can hear music. Festivals, club nights, gigs, a bar with a great DJ — if there’s a song, Chord can hold the moment. It isn’t tied to specific venues or lineups; it goes wherever the night takes you.

Privacy & people

Nothing is public. There’s no feed to perform for. Only the people you tag in a memory can see it — and only they can comment or react. Your night stays with the people who were actually there.

Share a companion link; they can join your collection so the whole crew’s night lands in one place — everyone’s angles, the songs, the moments — instead of scattered across five different camera rolls.

Pricing

Yes. Free covers the core experience — capture the moment and the song, relive your nights. Pro and Max add power for people who never miss a show, like keeping 4K originals at full quality. No dark patterns, one tap to cancel.

If we can’t promise it, we won’t say it.

Detection in a loud crowd is genuinely hard, so we built the manual add-a-song path right alongside it. The goal isn’t a perfect machine — it’s making sure you walk away with the moment and the track, every single night.

Be there for the first night.
