Super

Das einzige Scan Programm, das wirklich die Noten richtig übernimmt und auch eine sehr gute Blechbläser Stimmen Nachbildung hat. Ich habe mir vorher vier andere sehr renommierte Programme runtergeladen. Die waren für meine Zwecke alle nicht brauchbar. Nur schade, dass man die gescannten Credits nicht auch auf einem anderen Gerät mit der gleichen Apple ID nutzen kann. Ich musste mir jetzt die Credits doppelt kaufen. Sehr ärgerlich!

Simply spectacular

I have tried several other (abysmal) options for transcribing from score photos to create a base input for Musescore and then do editing like add additional parts. This is the solution I was looking for!! I take care to get a very good photograph with good lighting etc. and find that the transcription is almost flawless in every case! There is some glitch with the download button and I haven’t figured out what causes it but I have been able to get all the files downloaded with a little extra trouble. Buy some credits, you will not be sorry!! it is also useful to simply take a picture of a part and almost immediately hear it played back flawlessly to hear difficult rhythm patterns if you are reading challenged like me!
