It allows you to compose music for just about any size ensemble, from piano, symphonies, band, lead sheets, chord charts, guitar tabs, and more. Starting Version 5, Symphony Pro now offers handwriting recognition as the only in-app purchase: Perfect with Apple Pencil, and works great with touch or capacitive stylus GETTING STARTED SP provides all of the key options to begin your work. Import a score via MusicXML, MXL, MIDI, or SP file from your computer, or from apps like Dropbox, Mail, iCloud Drive, or Safari. You can base your project on a template, or start a blank score and add additional parts later. EDITING To add notes, choose Pencil mode, and tap anywhere on a bar to begin editing right away. You can quickly specify note properties before or after placing notes. By switching to Select mode with one touch, you can also transpose, erase, cut, and paste multiple notes/tracks. With an on-screen instrument, a QWERTY keyboard, or Core MIDI compatible keyboard, you can quickly enter notes & chords in step entry mode. Record a part in real-time with on-screen instruments to transcribe into notation. Versions 4 & 5 take greater advantage of the iPad touchscreen. With shortcuts and contextual menus to edit note & bar properties, many of the commonly used editing commands are right at your fingertips. SP supports a wide range of notational elements for your composition. Including dynamics & articulations, time & key signature changes, clef changes, pedals, and repeat conventions. Edit chord symbols, lyrics, and annotations using the iPad’s standard keyboard. EXPORT & SHARE When you’re finished, print out your score with AirPrint, or export it as a PDF, MusicXML, AAC, MIDI, or Symphony file.

Hope can add in the future updates. -- Huitsun430, 2022-07-18 ### *---- "Was expecting better" Disappointed. 1. Handwriting mode does not support guitar tablature. 2. The on screen guitar’s fret board is only 16 frets long. 3. Buggy, e.g. when I delete some notes on the staff sometimes it would remain on the tablature; when I input in the tablature, it doesn’t show up on the staff. -- clemfong, 2020-11-01 ### ***-- "Piano bass clef volume" Can not adjust piano bass clef volume -- Don.C, 2020-10-25 ### ***** "User Friendly and Efficiency!" Very convenient -- FKY54, 2019-10-09 ### *---- "Rubbish" This app is rubbish and is not worth the penny. Handwriting detection is never accurate, provided my handwriting is normal. I regret paying the sum of money to this rubbish. -- chriskcl, 2018-10-06 ### ****- "2 suggestion for cloud service" 1. The score uploaded to iCloud could be arranged by folder, that would easy for me to search 2. beside iCloud, I think this app is better to be supported by other cloud service, for example, I can upload/backup score directly to WebDAV...... -- Samuel Tang, 2016-02-14 ### ***-- "why cant open the app any more?" why cant open the app any more? -- Richter ko, 2016-01-28 ### ***** "app超所值" 強大功能 -- En.CYL, 2015-03-05 ### ***** "好好用，支持支持" 很容易用，而且不斷更新，很快回覆問題。 -- Cute Q, 2014-11-28 ### ***** "A Dream come True" My wife and I have been looking for a What You See Is What You Get orchestration tool for years. SP is the closest to our dream come true. We key in a Sheet Music and we get the music we want. Then we re-arrange the music to the instruments we have, and it faithfully do the job. What else can we ask for? Well, 1) translation between other form of score systems like Guitar Fingering, JianPu (number musical notation), Sita (Indian) and Middle East musical notation to the classical music score. 2) Soft sound box of other voice texture like Chinese, Indian or Middle East classical instruments. 3) Articulation editing. These can be sister products connected to Symphony Pro and we are ready to pay for them anytime. -- Siu Hoi, 2014-04-27 ### ***** "Chord symbols" Almost all chord symbols are hand-text but cannot be in fit size, for example slash chords, which occupy too much space in a bar. Looking forwards to seeing improvement in next update. -- Chunpong212, 2013-07-27 ### ****- "Good app, but tends to crash." This is quite intuitive, and input using the on-screen piano keyboard works well. The only downside is that it tends to crash every now and then, especially when inputting lyrics. In general you don't lose much, since it saves as you go. I have only really used it for composing short tunes and for writing out tunes from memory. You can have more than one voice on a stave, which is good. However, I don't feel that it is particularly well-suited to choral music, but you canmake it work to a large extent. -- boustrephon, 2012-12-31 ### ****- "Almost Perfect" For those familiar with notation software like Sibelius or Finally, that's probably the best App on the market. It's like a lighter version of them, but even more intuitive. It would be a fantastic App if it didn't crash so often though! Also, the realtime recording is pretty meaningless without quantization... The developer has promised it in an update a while back, still waiting... -- Jazzasie, 2012-09-04 ### ****- "beautiful printout" Beautiful and clean printout. But midi import not work ver well. -- tongcc8, 2012-07-26 ### ****- "Pretty good!" The app is pretty good and easy to use. A bit more improvement on preventing Midi input crashes and easier editing would make it even better. Range of functions and sound quality of various instruments is impressive, especially on a good headset. Would be great if we could choose how many bars we wanted in the song. -- Gbuffisme, 2012-07-15 ### ***** "Change in key Signature" When I want to divide the score into several lines in different key signature, I found that the natural will appear (say G natural when change from A major to D major). How can I delete the natural? -- Pianoman0605, 2012-06-01 ### ****- "Great! But with room for improvement." It is a great software. But, it should improve on: Frequent crash while input Chinese lyrics. There should be quantisation while using midi input. -- Tifaja, 2012-04-27 ### **--- "System crash all the time after upgrade" Crashes! Any plan to fix it? -- Hermanitor, 2011-12-31 ### ****- "Great" A great invention for musicians on the go. All notation features I need is here. If the stability issue can be fixed then it worths every penny I paid for it. Cheers -- revolveryk, 2011-11-26 ### ***** "Great apps!" Great job. But i have suggestion on the file management. Better if i can arrange the song in folder. -- Wai Lam, 2011-10-21 [View all Symphony Pro reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://apptail.io/account/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Symphony Pro In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Handwriting Recognition Tool | 88.00 H$ | ## Symphony Pro Store Rankings | Chart | Country | Category | Rank | |-------|---------|----------|------| | Top Paid | Norway | Music | #18 | | Top Paid | Kazakhstan | Music | #52 | | Top Paid | Vietnam | Music | #107 | | Top Paid | South Korea | Music | #110 | | Top Paid | Norway | Overall | #130 | | Top Paid | Thailand | Music | #234 | | Top Paid | China | Music | #237 | | Top Paid | Saudi Arabia | Music | #241 | | Top Paid | Hong Kong SAR China | Music | #243 | | Top Paid | Czechia | Music | #243 | | Top Paid | Türkiye | Music | #250 | | Top Paid | Taiwan | Music | #257 | | Top Paid | Portugal | Music | #287 | | Top Paid | Azerbaijan | Music | #288 | | Top Paid | Israel | Music | #294 | | Top Paid | Kuwait | Music | #302 | | Top Paid | Malaysia | Music | #303 | | Top Paid | Brazil | Music | #317 | | Top Paid | Greece | Music | #322 | | Top Paid | Indonesia | Music | #323 | | Top Paid | Philippines | Music | #329 | | Top Paid | Egypt | Music | #333 | | Top Paid | Dominican Republic | Music | #334 | | Top Paid | Romania | Music | #350 | | Top Paid | Lebanon | Music | #353 | | Top Paid | Mexico | Music | #389 | | Top Paid | India | Music | #397 | | Top Paid | Italy | Music | #403 | | Top Paid | Ireland | Music | #406 | | Top Paid | Spain | Music | #406 | | Top Paid | Austria | Music | #410 | | Top Paid | Poland | Music | #427 | | Top Paid | Japan | Music | #428 | | Top Paid | Netherlands | Music | #452 | | Top Paid | Peru | Music | #469 | | Top Paid | Belgium | Music | #470 | | Top Paid | Germany | Music | #475 | | Top Paid | Denmark | Music | #486 | | Top Paid | South Africa | Music | #493 | ## Symphony Pro Discovered Keywords -
