The musical equivalent of a text OCR program.

What do people use PhotoScore for?

* Accompaniment and guidance when practicing instruments
* Transposing (for example to bring a vocal part into range)
* Scanning music for use in sequencers or other editing programs; for re-arranging or extracting parts
* Creating MIDI files to put on web pages for others to hear
* Just for fun! With PhotoScore you can scan in your favorite song, have it played back to you, change the instruments and so on - use your imagination!

Scanning text is difficult for computers to do, and has only achieved reasonable accuracy in the last few years. Music scanning is much harder because of the more complicated range of symbols involved, because of the complex two-dimensional ‘grammar’ of music, and because some markings such as hairpins and phrase-marks are of a variable shape and size. The difficulty with scanning music or text is that by scanning a page, a computer does not ‘understand’ it. As far as the computer is concerned, scanning a page merely presents it with a grid of millions of black and white dots, which could be music, text, a photograph or anything else. For this reason, only a handful of music scanning programs have ever been developed, and past attempts have generally been very slow, very inaccurate, or unable to recognize many standard musical markings.

PhotoScore represents a significant advance, being able to read a wide variety of music with high speed, accuracy and a good range of music symbols.
