Symphony Pro - Music Notation - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Symphony Pro 6 is a complete and intuitive app for writing music notation on iPad. 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. Share files via email or directly to another computer or iPad via Dropbox/iCloud Drive.

Lovely app

Super Good, with a flat learning curve and lots of possibilities with a great value for the relatively low price. I’d love to see a desktop version for MacOS to be able to edit and create sheet music seamlessly on different devices.

100 % not intuitive

I had hoped that during the years I’ve not had this app installed they should have made it better. They have not. It’s far to essential features and the whole interface it totally unintuitive! When I work on music I don’t want to fight the app to do it. Remake it and get it right!

KILLER app for Apple Pencil

This is my go-to app for scribbling down musical ideas with Apple Pencil, worked like a charm after some tinkering!

Bug to fix

Extremely buggy and crashes from time to time. Lost hours of work several times when the app crashes. And this has been happening several time. Not to be considered as a professional tool yet even though the app itself is promising.

Great!

Version 5 is on par with Notion, even better insome regards it seem. Rally great update. Finally there is some competiton in the ipad notation world. :)

Crash!

It's not even possible to start a new document. The app crash within seconds! Don't buy!!

Bad

I think the whole idea of the app is great. Then again, I wouldn't know since it crashes every 3 minutes and I lose my work.. Don't buy it..

Crap! Don't buy

The idea is great, but it's so full of bugs you risk to loose all your work. Don't buy! At least not until they have a ready to run app. It gets 1 star just because I had to to send it.

A great app!

I like this app very much! I'm waiting for 2.4 and the bug fix with export a score to photo, though. Keep going to make a great app even better! Tony

Awesome

This app is the easiest way I have found so far for writing scores. Perhaps kind of expensive, but when you think of it, to get the same thing to computer you would have to pay ten times this.
