Guitar Edition
Guitar Edition
Scan and recognize multiple pages of guitar sheet music. Watch as both TAB and standard notation parts reconstruct on-screen in seconds, ready for playback and editing. Highly accurate and simultaneous recognition of tablature and standard notation make Guitar Edition a powerful and useful tool for any classical guitarist. Convert solo guitar scores printed as notation into TAB. Or vice-versa: Convert TAB scores to notation. Assign a unique instrument sound to each voice; Standup Bass to the thumb, Nylon Guitar for the middle finger and Harpsichord for the melody line. Mute or solo any contrapuntal voice to reveal inner voicings. Practice along at slow speeds without affecting pitch.
Limits: 2 staff lines / no lyrics.
Scan scores directly or process PDF files from the internet.
Scan or import PDF guitar scores. Simultaneous recognition of tablature and standard notation is included! Rhythmic values are automatically displayed after recognition. Fret fingerings will even update to "best and easiest" positions after transposing keys. Amazing!
Turn notation to TAB. Turn TAB to notation. Process guitar duets. The powerful TAB editor easily corrects mis-read fret fingering and note pitches. Corresponding note values automatically display eliminating rhythmic ambiguity. Contrapuntal voices are automatically displayed in color.
Change playback properties of tempo, dynamic and articulation markings, legatos, trills and other symbols. Apply changes to a single object or to all similar objects throughout the score. Store your own customized changes as new playback defaults for future SmartScore projects.
SmartScore 64 automatically differentiates up to 4 contrapuntal voices per staff. For classical guitarists, that means p, i, m and a voice lines stand out in color and even more importantly, play independently and can be assigned different instrument sounds!
Reformat scores simply and easily. Change page orientation, margins, staff widths, distances and layout easily with engraver-quality output to PDF or paper print.
Transpose and print directly from SmartScore. Save as MIDI or MusicXML and open your scores in Finale, MuseScore, Sibelius or any other notation program supporting MusicXML. You can even convert playback to MP3 files!
