One tap, and the whole score is bowed. MyScore marks down-bows (⊓) and up-bows (∨) on string parts for you. Upload a PDF or a photo and save the time you used to spend penciling in bowings note by note before rehearsal. ■ One tap for the whole score Upload a PDF part or photos of your music and tap Auto bowing once: down-bows and up-bows appear from the first page to the last. Several photos can be combined into one score, and if you have no part at hand, try the sample score built into the app. ■ An engine refined on tens of thousands of notes Refined on tens of thousands of notes from real orchestral parts, the engine weighs a set of playing rules and picks the most natural path among hundreds of billions of possible bow sequences on a single page. It takes downbeats, chords and pickup measures into account. ■ An advanced engine that reads note lengths and slurs It reads note lengths and slurs, carries the bow across bar lines and adds a slur where notes belong in one bow. ■ Auto bowing modes to suit the piece Orchestra: Standard bowings that orchestra sections commonly agree on. Adds slurs in slow pieces. Singing: Groups short notes under longer slurs for fewer bow changes. Best for slow, lyrical pieces. ■ From violin to double bass Bowings are distributed differently for violin, viola, cello and double bass parts, following each instrument's bow length and habits. ■ Group parts into a piece Group the violin, viola, cello and double bass parts of one piece and choose a reference part. Auto bowing for the other parts then follows the reference part's bowing and, where the rhythm differs from it, another part with the same rhythm. You can turn this off for each part. ■ It doesn't hide what it isn't sure of Measures it couldn't read well are never filled in by guesswork. They're marked "Check" instead. ■ Add bowings by hand (Premium) Fix a wrong bowing by hand, add marks where there are none, and join or break slurs. Bowings you fix by hand stay as they are even when bowings are redistributed. ■ Your own bowing style (Premium) For each score, change the size, shape, color and weight of the bowing marks to match its notes. ■ Export as PDF or images (Premium) Save or print your part with its bowings as PDF, JPG or PNG. ■ Turn pages with a Bluetooth page turner Turn pages with a Bluetooth page turner (foot pedal) without taking your hands off the instrument. A keyboard works too. If the bottom of the page is still off screen, it scrolls down one screen first. ■ Your score files never leave your device Reading the score and distributing bowings all happen on this device. ■ Bowings for your whole ensemble Create an ensemble and members see the bowings its admins save, on their own copy of the same edition. Score files are never exchanged, only the bowing marks. Editing and saving bowings is part of Premium. ■ Version history Every save adds a version, so you can go back to earlier bowings at any time. Please use scores you own, for your own practice and performance. Do not distribute scores without the rights holder's permission.
