Core Advantages and Application Scenarios
Touch and Handwriting Experience Optimized for Surface Pro
Avid has specifically optimized for the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 tablet, allowing you to quickly add and edit notes with just a tap of the stylus. You can use the tablet's on-screen keyboard and fretboard to play music in real-time, and use the Surface Pro Pen's buttons to select, erase, and edit scores. When inputting notes, you can even drag the score directly, enjoying a creation experience as natural and fluid as pen and paper.
Diverse Creation and Sharing Pathways
Sibelius Ultimate gives your score playback impressive realism and provides immediate access to an extensive sound library containing various professional-grade instruments. You can sync Sibelius Ultimate to Pro Tools and other DAWs via ReWire, or collaborate via MusicXML. Once completed, you can share your music as scores, audio files, or videos via email, ScoreExchange, YouTube, Facebook, SoundCloud, and other platforms, or export to Avid Scorch to let musicians read and play directly on an iPad.
Publishing-Grade Layout and Graphic Tools
Creating beautiful professional scores is effortless with Sibelius Ultimate's complete desktop publishing tools. You can use industry-standard kerning, leading, and other typography tools to perfect text details, with support for drag-and-drop graphics. With a single click, you can easily export publication-quality PDF scores, meeting the strict requirements of academic papers or commercial publishing.
PhotoScore Ultimate: Professional Score Digitization
This bundle includes Neuratron's PhotoScore Ultimate, the professional way to digitize paper scores. The software can "read" almost all markings in printed music, as well as most handwritten scores (including the NotateMe handwriting recognition app). Powered by Neuratron's impressive OmniScore dual-engine recognition technology, it boasts over 99.5% accuracy on most PDFs and original manuscripts, capturing almost every detail. Its unique ability to read handwritten music, combined with automatic scanning and recognition features, transforms tedious transcription work into an automated, fluid experience.
AudioScore Ultimate: Audio to Score Conversion
The included AudioScore Ultimate can create scores from MP3 and CD tracks. It is capable of converting up to 16 simultaneously sounding instruments or notes into multiple staves, with each staff containing up to four voices. You can export the data directly to Sibelius, or save it as PDF, MIDI, MusicXML, or NIFF files for further development in programs like Cubase or Finale. If you have recordings that need to be notated, AudioScore Ultimate is an indispensable tool.
