Score Creator is a music notation app for iPhone and iPad. Write sheet music as easily as texting a friend, let the app build a full accompaniment from just your melody (it adds the chords for you) or from chord symbols you have written, and scan printed sheet music from photos and PDF files. *** WRITE SHEET MUSIC Notes and chord symbols are entered with keyboards designed like a text keyboard: no tapping and zooming, no dragging from palettes. Write lead sheets, piano and solo scores, SATB choir scores and band scores with lyrics, chord symbols, dynamics, articulations and more, and listen to every instrument play it back. *** CREATE AN ACCOMPANIMENT Turn a melody into a complete arrangement in a few taps: - Suggest chords: the app proposes chord symbols for your melody, at a simple or an advanced level. - Create accompaniment: piano, guitar, bass, strings and drums are generated from your chord symbols. Choose the instruments you want. - 100 styles in 8 groups: Pop & Rock, Jazz, Latin, Dance & Folk, World, Classical, Electronic, and Songs & more, with patterns for common time signatures and odd meters such as 5/4 and 7/8. - Preview a style on the first measures of your score before you create it. - Rhythm from sparse to busy, and simple or rich harmony with seventh chords, smooth inversions and a bass with passing notes (rich harmony in the advanced version). - The accompaniment follows your music: it plays softer and louder with the melody's dynamics, gets fuller in the chorus, adds drum fills before new sections and ends on a held chord. - It stays in step while you edit: change a chord, the time signature or the key, or add measures, and the accompaniment is updated with it. - Mix it in the sound panel with one volume for the whole band or a level for each instrument. - Convert the accompaniment into regular staves to edit it note by note. - Export it with your score to MIDI and audio files. *** SCAN SHEET MUSIC Take a photo of printed sheet music or open a PDF file, and the app turns it into an editable score that you can play back, transpose and accompany. *** MORE FEATURES - Many instruments, including transposing instruments such as saxophones, clarinet and trumpet. - Transpose a score into any key. - Import MIDI and MusicXML files. - Export to MIDI, MusicXML, PDF, WAV and MP3. - Copy and paste, undo and redo. Score Creator is also a handy tool for music teachers and students: write exercises and favorite songs, play them back and practice along. *** End User License Agreement: https://www.termsfeed.com/eula/c6cf438c81097acbfd5a7d51600b6bba *** Privacy policy: The app does not collect or store any kind of personal information.

Boost your creativity and transcribe your vocal songs into sheet music. All the features of Sing2Notes: » Transcribe solo vocal recordings to sheet music » Transcribe solo vocal MP3 files to sheet music » View the transcribed music as classical score » Playback the sheet music and listen to the result » Download sheet as PDF, MIDI, or MusicXML » Share your compositions with your friends HOW DOES IT WORK? Once your music piece is uploaded, our artificial intelligence powered transcriber processes it to generate a sheet music based on what it hears. When the processing is finished, you can view the final sheet and export it in three outputs - a Midi file, a PDF engraved sheet, and a MusicXML digital note sheet. It has never been easier to convert piano pieces to sheet music! WHAT THIS APP DOESN'T OFFER » Separation of multiple instruments: The note recognition can't separate multiple instruments from your voice. If you record multiple instruments playing simultaneously you will get bad transcription results! As the name says, Sing2Notes will only work with vocal recordings. » Live note recognition: This app is not able to show you live note recognition results. Instead, it will take some time to perform the frequency analysis and shows you the final sheet music. » 100% match percentage: This app won't detect 100% of the played notes and there will also be wrong detections. But depending on the quality of the input signal, it will give you more than useful sheet! REQUIREMENTS » Internet: active internet connection for server connectivity » Microphone SUMMARY Transcribe music recordings from your microphone to sheet music. With Sing2Notes you can create on-the-go recordings of your voice. Those are uploaded to your personal songbook and transcribed to score. Musical note recognition for piano has never been so easy!
