Transcribe CDs and MP3s

With AudioScore Ultimate, you can open a CD track or MP3 file and transcribe it to a score. The software employs the most intelligent technology available today to convert up to 16 instruments or notes at a time into multiple staves, with up to four voices per staff. After transcribing your music, you can send it directly to Sibelius or save it as a MusicXML, NIFF, or MIDI file for use in most other music programs.

View, edit, and play back nuanced performances

AudioScore Ultimate enables you to view, play, and edit the most intricate nuances of a performance—such as the subtle changes in pitch, volume, and timing. You can also produce new versions of music using MIDI instruments of your choice. AudioScore analyzes the original music in great detail, and plays it back with tremendous realism.

Create scores by hand

AudioScore Ultimate can “serve” you a set of notes, which you can quickly split, join, resize, and adjust pitch, purely on a performance level—no worrying about rests and technicalities such as the key signature, accidentals, augmentation dots, beaming, ties, etc.
