A bard for your sheet music
Sheet music to MusicXML and MIDI, from a PDF or a phone photo
Upload a PDF or snap your printed score. The bard reads the notes, lays the result next to your original and plays it back, ready for MuseScore, Dorico, Sibelius or your DAW.
Sign in to hand the bard your first score. Your scores stay together under My scores.
- See and hear the whole result free, and check it against your page before you take it.
- Phone photos welcome, not just clean PDFs. No app to install.
- MusicXML for notation apps, MIDI for DAWs and players, plus one MIDI file per part.
