8-count sheet maker synced to your cheer mix

Your mix came back. Load it here, tap the first 1, and Cheersheet lays the 8-counts over the actual music. Write the skills on the counts, shade the sections, print the count sheet for the athletes, and practise with the music slowed down and the counts called.

How many 8-counts is your routine?

Played at 75 percent speed for learning, the same mix runs at 108 beats per minute and a 1:30 routine takes 2:00. Cheersheet works these out from your own grid, including any tempo changes.

Your mix stays yours

Custom cheer mixes cost hundreds of dollars and are licensed to your team. The music is your team's own. Cheersheet reads the file you choose on this device and never sends it anywhere. There is no account and no upload: the file is decoded, gridded and played in this browser, and the sheet is saved here too.

Cheersheet is a choreography and practice tool; it does not check skills against any ruleset, so check your own rules and your coaches' safety calls.

Frequently asked questions

What is Cheersheet?

An 8-count sheet maker that works on your team's own mix. Load the music, tap the first 1, and Cheersheet lays a beat grid of 8-counts over it. Write a cue on any count, shade the sections, place formation dots, print the sheet, and practise with the mix slowed down and the counts called.

Is it free?

Yes. Everything on the site is free, with no account.

Does my music get uploaded?

No. Your mix, your count sheet and every athlete name stay in this browser. Nothing is uploaded, and no music ships with the site. The file is decoded by your browser on your device, and the beat grid is worked out there too.

How does it find the beat?

It measures where the sound gets suddenly louder or brighter (the onsets), finds the steady pulse in them, and follows that pulse through the mix. You tap the first 1 so the grid knows where each 8-count starts. If the pulse it finds is half or double what you hear, one button fixes it.
