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.

Can not even open this program in os5.1 -- Resinsoft, 2013-12-13 ### ***** "Fantastic app" This app is so useful. It's feature rich yet easy to use and does just about everything I need to do. I would like it to have multi bar rests and more dynamics - other than that it's great. -- drrosie, 2012-09-18 ### ***-- "Alright" It's not amazing. Really bad audio for the instruments, can be hard to add notes in. -- JonoSax, 2012-08-30 ### ***** "Revolutionary, even thoguh it crashes :)" this app is quite amazing in my mind and i love to be able to hear all of the different instruments and express my musical creativity. it does seem to crash quite a bit when you have a lot of written music but it is worth being patient to be able to enjoy and write amazing music. I would call it revolutionary for music. -- Treisee, 2012-08-03 ### ***** "AMAZING" Honestly one of the best applications I have out of my many, and definitely the best music app. I use this for writing my compositions for assessments and its great being able to export the sheet music as a PDF, and having a midi file. It has all the basic dynamics and note heads you need. Only improvement would be to add more dynamics and smoother, more realistic playback. Other than that a must have for any muso! -- Josh Levendis, 2012-06-23 ### ****- ")Hope this works for learning notation." I plan to hook up my Midi keyboard when my IRig Midi arrives, so I can play notes on my keyboard and see what notes come up on the notation. I believe that if I watch long enough, I will soon get used to the notation symbols and will know what to play on the keyboard.The plan is to learn notation in reverse, by seeing what notes come up when I play a certain key, I can then reverse the process in my brain later when I see notation , I know what keys to play. This should be fascinating to any educators. If you can learn it one way - notation to keyboard- why can't you learn it the other way: - keyboard to notation!! Also, sure hope that thins plays back thru Midi Out to my Midi keyboard so I can put it through my PA system. -- Poor Man's Sax, 2012-06-11 ### ****- "Fantastic!" Crashes sometimes. Cannot export files as mp3. Other than that, perfect!!! It might be the only decent music notation app available now. Well done guys! Thx so much. -- MirandaDil, 2012-05-15 ### ***** "Awesome!" It maybe the only app for decent musical notation, so lacks comparison. However, I find it extremely useful for my purposes, which is to note down ideas and studies when I find myself with spare time. I've even written some charts for bands, at rehearsals, on the spot. it does the job without a hitch. It's fairly fast work flow. I use a stylus and use both hands. Left toggles the note head buttons, whilst the stylus places the note. Great! Haven't tried playing it in. Always found writing to be faster. It bugs out on me when I export my charts. I just quit, and the file is there, but the app is stuck. Other than that, no problems. This app exceeded my expectations, and I enjoy using it daily. Thanks! -- in a barr, 2011-07-18 [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 | $19.99 | ## 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 -
