AudioScore Ultimate 8 converts recorded music and performances into written notation on Windows and macOS. It transcribes CD tracks, MP3s, MIDI files, and vocal or instrument performances, recognizing up to 16 instruments or notes at once across multiple staves, with up to four voices per staff. Version 8 improves recognition of overlapping notes, percussion interference, pitch, and note separation. You can view, play, and edit pitch, volume, and timing nuances, while the software detects instrumentation and labels score staves by part. Scores can be saved as PDFs, and notes can be split, joined, resized, or retuned without managing rests or key signatures. Transcriptions can be sent to Sibelius or exported as MusicXML, NIFF, or MIDI. Neuratron also lists compatibility with Finale, Pro Tools, Cubase, and most music programs. The demo limits tracks to 60 seconds and disables saving. The product costs 249.00 USD per once.
