SmartScore X2 Pro Description
SmartScore X2 Pro is a complex piece of software created from the ground up to make it as easy as possible for you to transfer the contents of physical music scores to your computer. Not only this, but the app can also help you edit the music scores, print and export them, as well as playback the described music notes.
If this is a bit confusing, it surely helps if you think about this app as an OCR (short for Optical Character Recognition) app for texts, namely an app that scans actual paper documents and provides you with their contents in editable text form. Now, image replacing the documents with music scores and you surely get what SmartScore X2 Pro is all about.
Displays all its important features right in front of you
Upon first launching the app, you are met by an overly-crowded main window, with a comprehensive toolbar, a smaller sidebar and a menubar. Most of the app’s features can be easily accessed from the sidebar and most of the editing work is accomplished with the help of the toolbar.
Even if the initial part of the workflow that implies scanning, loading and the whole recognition process of music scores is fairly intuitive, from here onwards things get a bit difficult. Regardless of your musical knowledge, you should take a few minutes of your time and thoroughly read the online documentation.
Comes with a sound library and advanced OCR, editing and exporting features
No doubt that after a while, SmartScore X2 Pro’s menus and features begin to look like familiar territory and you can start taking advantage of what it has to offer. The application can recognize and playback conductor’s scores, band arrangements, PDF scores and transcriptions.
Thanks to its efficient recognition engine, you can shortly start editing complex symbols and chord configurations, score structures and even format the page’s layout. Besides all the advanced features in terms of editing, the tool can also help you print music scores and export them to PDF, MIDI or MusicXML files.
Last but not least, you should also know that SmartScore X2 Pro comes with a built-in sound library. Put simply, the library includes realistic and carefully selected sounds of instruments used in orchestras and even some choir vocals.
Powerful musical app that acts as an OCR, editor and player
All in all, SmartScore X2 Pro proved itself to be a very competent and well-thought out application. It helps you scan, edit and play music scores, as well as print or export them with just a few mouse clicks. Yes, its learning curve may not be as lean as you might want, but with a bit of patience and practice, you can take advantage of all its potential.
