Appmuse

Thank you1for this great tool

I spent six months studying fugue composition. Quite a lot of writing if done by hand. Paid more than I usually do for an app to have the basic function of knowing that what I wrote would be there after I wrote it. In the first 48 hours this app crashed 18 times while I was composing for string quartet. Restart and bars are missing. Completely unacceptable. Full stop. If you can’t improve on the pencil, you should not be building apps. Higher functions like individual note selection are absurd... select a note, it creates a new one a flat 2nd above or below. Delete, try to select again, same. Repeat until you forget the melody you were trying to capture. But the lamest thing about this entire app is, it doesn’t have the simple function that musecore does, select a note or group of notes and add any harmonic interval. So add the same melodic intervals to bar os bars in a fifth, seventh, etc... when scoring, time is critical. This app would be disastrous in a real project environment with a deadline. Stop beta-testing on the public after launch. Get your ____ together before you take musicians money. Jerks. Show more

Perfect for my purposes. I work on computers all day and never feel like using computers at home for fun. I enjoy arranging music for various purposes and this app is surprisingly functional and the price tag is right. Not interested in committing to a super expensive subscription based program like Sibelius or Finale when this is only a hobby. I love this app so far. Didn’t take me long to get pretty efficient with it, using keyboard function to enter notes and using copy-paste as needed. Playback feature is nice too so I don’t have to walk downstairs to my piano to check. Show more

I bought this and it just won’t open?

-Crashes way too many times -It’s hard to do things like change tempo or get a single instrument on the staff -Hard to work out -needs to add more notes, like ghost notes Show more

Still getting used to all the features, but so far it’s been a great tool for on the go orchestrations

Great app! Easy t use and play

I have had some issues figuring out how to use this app.

Dont Buy this Its not a good application

This is a great app for noting compositions when traveling or at home. It’s intuitive and offers flexibility to create whatever you wish.

After one afternoon learning and composing this app exceeds all other reviews! 5*s+!

This app is beautifully designed and powerful.. well at least it seems to be. I wouldn’t really know how useful the app is because I don’t know anything about music notation but this app is really great for learning since it can also work with midi. I’m impressed by how much it utilizes available screen space. For someone who doesn’t know much about how one of these apps is supposed to look or function, I think the app design alone is a work of art. Show more

I haven’t had a chance to use the app for very long but it looks promising. I’ll update my review soon once I use the app more. Thanks.

I have used Symphony and Symphony Pro for years for transcribing quick ideas, songs and even Orchestral works for years. The basics are easy to use and remember and there is always the “Help” area when I forget features. Great App for music creativity. Jeff Show more

Great

I’ve actually been using this on my iPhone and find that for the most part it ‘s quite easy to use. There are a few quirks I haven’t figured out - I didn’t find the help section to be that helpful when I tried to search for something, but really it does pretty much what I need it to. The playback feature drives me nuts because I can’t seem to get it to start where I want it to - but that’s probably me, I think. Show more

Very usable tools, easy to write and edit. Full featured. Has never crashed for me. Like it better than some computer based tools, and I usually work with it on iPhone and not iPad. Show more

A clickbait app.

repeatedly says it needs to be update and then it shuts the program down.

Seems to be simple and friendly in operating once you get used to the interactive features. Keyboard input for writing on staff is great. Input with Apple Pencil is fun, works well. Learning to use all available tools, looking for writing two different voice parts with individual up/down stems on the same staff line.. Show more
