- Musicians working from recordings, scores, or notation text
- Worth noticing
- Its demo uses a CC0 guitar recording, slowed slightly to bring a sharp-tuned take to concert pitch; the source file remains unchanged.
Field notes
The homepage offers three routes into the workbench: audio or video, a score scan or notation file, and ABC or MusicXML text. Export options include engraved A4 PDF, MusicXML, MIDI, rendered MP3/WAV, and ensemble parts. A guitar demo uses a CC0 Freesound take; the page says it was recorded slightly sharp and that playback is slowed to concert pitch, while the source file stays unchanged. Workspace access is described as invitation-only.
