You have the opportunity to edit the mistakes in recognition, deleting and inserting notes, marking triplets, adding rests. In the full SmartScore products, these measures are clearly indicated, by a color change. All of these lead to duration errors, where a measure would be picked up as having too many or too few beats. A tempo indicator might be picked up as a note. There may be hidden rests, where a second layer starts or ends mid-measure. When you recognize a scan in SmartScore, you will almost certainly see errors. You can delete blocks of text, or even entire staves that you might not want. You can add missing group barlines that might have been cut off. In SmartScore's Image Editor, you can deskew and crop the image. It's the scan preparation and recognition that makes the difference, and here is where the difference shows up.Īfter you scan, before you run the recognition process, you have the chance to graphically fix things. There are any number of ways to scan the music, whether directly into SmartScore in Windows, or via Mac's Image Capture, or PDF Scanner, or any other program. Music-to-XML is purchased online through the Apple App/Windows/Android Store for $99.99 - this does not require ownership of any MakeMusic product. SmartScore Lite owners can also upgrade to X2 Pro ($199) or Songbook Edition ($99) directly through Musitek. To clarify, all Finale owners can purchase SS X2 Pro through MakeMusic for $199. I do not recommend Songbook Edition and believe that, if you are only going to spend the $99, you might be better off spending it on Music-to-XML instead per my earlier post. The official blog posts on this leave a whole lot to be desired. Then we could just make a sticky and point to it when these questions arise so people could get the answers more quickly. It would be nice if this board could be organized by category, in this case, Scanning. >Neither Mike H, Adrian, or I, have any interest in promoting upgrades.<</p>
