Ratings and Reviews
Don’t try to slur V1 notes to V2 Notes!!!
It’s a good app but I was composing recently and I created a corrupted file by slurring v1 notes to v2 notes, now the app crashes when I try to access that page of my music.
Also, looking forward to a better lyric engine in an update.
Otherwise, very enjoyable, intuitive app.
Excellent! But could be fine tuned in places
This app satisfies most of my compositional needs. It has a great diversity of instrumentation and they sound accurate. There is a great learning curve, and I have emailed the support address with questions but have yet to receive a reply. It’s been about 2 months now. Although the lack of user support is irritating, the user interface is much more friendly than piano plus pro, another app by the same creator, so I have not delved into that app very deeply. I bought the bundle but have yet to need piano plus pro.
One place needing fine tuning:
Time signatures are not easily changed when you have already composed music after the measure you want to change. It changes the whole remainder of the measures. One way around this, i change the measure to one 8th note increase (e.g. 4/4 to 9/8) and then change the measures after back to 4/4. This keeps the measure I adjusted in 9/8 and I can change it to whatever I want after that. Annoying and would rather not have to do that.
Another place needing fine tuning is reaching the upper extremity of the piccolo register. It stops about five notes short when you have the more than two parts in there (it thinks you’re trying to add to the part above it)
Otherwise 9/10 would recommend
Good app
So far, I've used this app to compose a couple, pretty short, simple songs, but it's very useful. I used to use a DAW for everything; but, well, I find Sheet Music to be a lot better, even if the instrument quality is a little low. That's why I have the daw, though. Just dislike that you have to rate it five stars to unlock a couple features. Builds distrust with possible buyers; I was almost not gonna buy it because of what I saw in the reviews. However despite the shady tactics, this app is still great.
As all apps, however, there are a couple issues:
1:
I can't seem to move midi tracks into Notation Pad, and trying to put the notes itself in, manually, is time consuming, as well as confusing, since I'm not exactly practiced enough.
2:
Where are the drums and the cymbals? That's an incredibly important part of music.
3:
A search engine for the discover music category. Would love to find some pieces there, but searching endlessly isn't very interesting.
