Start faster right off the top with one of QuickScores score templates. Youve got Piano, Piano and Solo Instrument, Organ, Choir, Band, Orchestra and a bunch more. And if you need something you dont see, just set it up yourself and its there for you to use from then on.
Youll find yourself quickly entering music using the mouse or playing music using the built-in virtual keyboard or your MIDI keyboard, guitar controller or other input device. With a microphone attached to your computer you can even sing into QuickScore! Record and enter .WAV digital audio files, and even extract notes from .WAV files. Add volume, pan or any other controllers in real time using the built-in mixer. Or simply open any MIDI, MusicXML, NIFF or Guido file without worrying which scanning program, sequencer or notation program created it.
Edit your music using your choice of Score, Piano Roll, Audio, Controller, Event List or Song Editors - all included and all fully integrated. Once you understand one editor, you automatically understand the others. And now you can edit your audio data down to the individual sample with the included QuickAudio audio editor.
Use VST plugins to extend QuickScores functionality in ways you never thought possible. You can load new virtual software synthesizers, drum kits and orchestral sounds not available on your sound card, and manipulate them in unbelievable ways. You can edit and morph your audio, and generate new MIDI or audio material to go with music youve already entered.
Of course you can play your music using any sound card or MIDI interface that youve got on your Windows PC.
And when youre done, print publication-quality scores using any Windows-compatible printer, export your scores to word processing, graphics or publishing software in vector or bitmap format, publish to the desktop or world wide web as PDF or JPEG, and create audio CDs, Wave and MP3 files and music soundtracks which you can incorporate into digital films, videos and games.
If youre looking for the heart of this software, youll find it in the Score Editor. Unlike a lot of sequencers, we dont stop once the notes are down. Youve got a complete set of clefs, including five-line and single-line drum clefs. Drop in a clef anywhere on a staff and the music automatically reformats to reflect the change. Same thing for time signature and key signature changes. Theres a full compliment of musical symbols, including grace notes, slurs, chord names, guitar grids, figured bass symbols, and hundreds of others.
Youve got up to four verses of lyrics that automatically center under their notes as you enter them, as well as eight different kinds of resizable block text, which you can put anywhere you want on the page. You can adjust the vertical spacing between staves to make room for extra lyrics, unusually low or high notes or instructions to performers, and you can change the spacing of notes by moving individual notes without affecting their timing, by choosing to use engraver spacing, or by having QuickScore do the job of spacing for you.
You choose the average number of notes youd like to see on a line and QuickScore does the rest, adjusting the number of bars per line and the width of each bar, on a bar-by-bar basis, based on the density of the music, for the bars that you specify or for your entire piece! With a few mouse clicks you set up the layout of braces and bracketing for each system. Same thing for drum notation. You set up the note head and staff position for each pitch and your drum tracks automatically notate the way you want them. And, of course, we let you put multiple independent voices on the same staff.
Cross-staff beaming? No problem. Adjustable split point in split tracks? QuickScore lets you put notes on the upper or lower staff of a split track regardless of whether the pitch is above or below middle C.
With QuickScore Elite Level II, you can quickly and easily produce 6-string guitar tablature notation with adjustable string tuning. Adjust the tuning and the fret numbers are adjusted automatically! Move and edit fret numbers with the same tools you use to edit any other notes or objects.
You can tell that QuickScore was designed with composers in mind by the little things. Like letting you proof your tracks for notes out of the range of the instruments for which youre writing. And automatic playback of repeats and first and second endings. Things like generating chords and guitar grids automatically from the notes youve already got in your tracks. When youve finished putting in the notes for your song, choose Generate Chords and its all done for you. And of course you have control of the the playback of your chords and guitar grids.
