User Reviews for SmartScore NoteReader

Needs 64 bit update, especially for use of in-app purchase

Currently app works great in iOS. However it is only 32 bit. Apple is going to phase out 32 bit apps. I paid to upgrade this app and would like it to work in future versions of iOS. Please upgrade to 64 bit.

Could be great but needs improvement

This app has the potential to be big around the world with music students, but the developers seem to have given up on it. I was ready to purchase the upgrade and its either very well hidden, or it just can't be upgraded any longer. What a shame.

Great potential, poor execution

I have yet to produce a "clean" result. It either says recognition failed, or I get many missing or extraneous notes. The last straw came when I went to app support and found the warning that ALL IPAD cameras were below the recommended 8 Megapixel resolution. If Musitek knows that, then why offer the app for iPad in the first place? I'm deleting this app.

Needs Update

Works well enough under iOS 10 (though still kind of clunky). Unfortunately, iOS 11 is coming in less than a month and according to reports it needs an update to function. I hope they decide to update the interface as well when they update to work with the new OS.

Not a shadow of the desktop version

This app badly needs updating, especially given the release of the new M-1 iPad Pro’s. I’ve been using the desktop version for 25 years - and it’s brilliant. This is not a shadow of the desktop. Smartscore: now that iPads have come of age, port your desktop version with full music editing functions to the iPad.

works great!

I put this app on my ipad air and I use it for practice all of the time. The trick is to make sure that the captured image is good quality.

Smarts ore Notereader

Smart score Notereader has major problem with Outlook Exchange accounts on the iPhone 6 series (iOS 9.x)... If you send a score via the paid app, Outlook Exchange becomes unstable, self-canceling with 1-8 second time delay. If, within that time, you can locate and delete the Notereader outbox message, Outlook Exchange returns to normal behavior

Great idea; needs work.

I tried two methods for the app to 'read' the music. The first time I scanned with my iPhone 6s+. The second time I had a pdf of the song already on my phone. Both times, the playback was inaccurate. Way off. Many missing notes. Perhaps it does not work with 4-part harmony arrangements using shape notes. I'm deleting it since this is the only format I would find useful for learning church choral arrangements.

Amazing!

This is fantastic! I don't know what those other reviews are talking about. I'm a singer who often has to learn music from sheets and very fast. I uploaded my PDF and in 30 seconds had a perfect rehearsal track! I can't believe this is free!

Um.. Yes please!

This is great! I haven't looked at all the features of the pay version yet, but if it includes editing function, than I am sold. The score I loaded had some minor errors caused by mistakes in the original. Would be perfect with "tweaking" capability!

Description

Click and play. Capture images of printed sheet music and hear the song play back in seconds. Processes multiple-page scores including PDF files and images saved to the device.

NOTE: Recognition accuracy is directly releated to the quality of the captured image. For example, our tests indicate that accuracy is improved almost 30% with iPhone 6 images compared to those from the iPhone 5. All iPad users should note that their 5MP cameras are below NoteReader's recommended resolution of 8MP. Unlocked version (NoteReader Premier) allows SmartScore, MIDI, MusicXML and image files to be sent to any e-mail address or to the cloud. MusicXML or MIDI files can be imported to a host of compatible mobile and desktop music applications. Download the free SmartScore Player from www.musitek.com/smartscore-player.html then open SmartScore files from NoteReader. All recognized musical symbols including articulations, dynamics, lyrics, text, chord symbols, guitar fret diagrams and endings appear on-screen. Playback is fully-controllable. Select various instrumental sounds for each part and/or contrapuntal voice. Drum tracks can be added for more realism. There's even a Karaoke view with scrolling lyrics and bouncing ball. Owners of the unlocked version (NoteReader Premier) are also eligible to purchase any of the full editions of SmartScore X2 desktop editions at a significant discount.
