PhotoScore Ultimate, incorporating OmniScore2 technology, is fast and highly accurate music scanning and recognition software - the musical equivalent of a text OCR program. Also capable of reading handwritten scores and converting PDF files to music files, it is easy-to-use, transposes, plays-back, prints out, and exports scanned scores in a number of formats. PhotoScore Ultimate is the only program of it's kind that can offer 4 and 6 line guitar tabulature recognition. It reads a wide range of styles including percussion and 4 and 6 line guitar tablature...
More than 16 years experience in recognition technologies have enabled us to design and create the formidable OmniScore²™ dual-engine recognition system, incredibly making PhotoScore Ultimate 6 over 99.5% accurate on most originals!
PhotoScore Ultimate 6 picks out virtually every detail and even recognizes 4 and 6 line guitar tablature, 1, 2 and 3 line percussion staves. It is the world's first and only commercial program available that is also designed to read handwritten scores.
Ease-of-use has been a central design aim right from the start, and with automatic scanning and recognition, plus licensed Sibelius-style editing interfaces, PhotoScore Ultimate 6 even becomes fun and exciting to use!
