You know the problem. You have created a lot of files in your old music notation program, but now you want to move them to your new program. Your new program reads MusicXML files, but your old program cannot save them. Or you have a PDF file created by a notation program that you want to use in another program. How can do you it?
In the past, you have had to either re-enter the music manually, or scan it using an optical scanner like SharpEye or capella-scan. These are some of the best scanners available today, but the results can still vary greatly depending on the music.
PDFtoMusic Pro is a revolutionary new product for Windows and Macintosh to make this transfer far easier than ever before. Where optical scanners have to reconstruct the music from the dots on the page, PDFtoMusic Pro can be much smarter. Because it works with PDFs created by other music programs, it know that staff lines are lines, and that noteheads are noteheads. Since PDFtoMusic Pro needs to do much less guesswork, the results are much more accurate. |
In a few seconds, PDFtoMusic Pro extracts the music-related elements from a PDF file. It lets you
- Play the score. With its Virtual Singer embedded module, PDFtoMusic Pro also sings the vocal parts!
- Export to a score format like MusicXML, MIDI, or Myr (Harmony Assistant files).
- Export to a digital audio format like WAV or AIFF.
If you can create a PDF file from your old music notation program, you can move it into your new music program using PDFtoMusic Pro. Nearly any music program that runs on Windows, Mac OS X, or Mac OS 9 can print PDF files. Saving to PDF is built into Mac OS X. For Windows, you can use programs like Adobe Acrobat 8, PDF Creator, or PDF995. For Mac OS 9, you can use programs like Adobe Acrobat 5 and PrintToPDF.
What if you have the old music files but you can no longer run your old music program? Let Recordare's file translation services help. We can do the PDFtoMusic Pro translations for you if you send us your old music files.
In the free trial version, PDFtoMusic Pro plays only the first page of a PDF document, and exports only one page at a time. You can use it freely with no time limit, and if it fits your expectations, you can then purchase a license here to process multi-pages documents more easily. Updates are free of charge for all the versions to come. Check the version history to see what has changed in the updates so far.
