For anyone who prefers using a keyboard or guitar to notation, these beautiful new windows are ideal. Simply click on the keys or frets to input notes and chords – or ‘play’ your computer’s QWERTY keys just like a piano!

But they’re not just for inputting. Select any note/chord, and the keyboard or fretboard shows how it’s played. And when you play the score back, you can follow the music on the keyboard or fretboard, too – even if it’s written for other instruments.

• Click keys or ‘play’ your computer keyboard to input
• Colors show voices
• Scroll through octaves
• Drag to resize
• Choose which staves’ music to show when playing

 

• Click frets to input notes & chords
• Acoustic, maple or rosewood neck in 3 sizes
• 6-string guitar or 4/5-string bass
• Choose which staff’s music to show when playing
