Dual-engine printed music recognition -
Accuracy reaches dizzying heights!
By combining the two most accurate printed music scanning engines in the world (each independently developed), PhotoScore Ultimate achieves recognition accuracy far greater than the sum of the engines - it really has to be seen to be believed!
Handwritten score recognition!
You read correctly - Neuratron has been very busy and has made a massive technological breakthrough with the world's first and only music scanning software designed to read handwritten, as well as printed, scores. Currently optimized to read freshly written music (rather than old archives) PhotoScore Ultimate 5 gives musicians the freedom to compose music away from their computer, perhaps next to their favorite instrument, or relaxing in a field a long way from civilization!
