Sheet Music Scanner Reviews

I bought this product but was given no instructions on how to use it once purchased. I've contacted them twice and have been told "we've opened a ticket". Now i just want my money back

I wasn't so happy at first, but I think it got better after a few updates. Now, at least for me, it's better.

Some small mistakes, but overall good

Tried one page (11 measures) of a 7 staff arrangement. The conversion only had 3 measures. It was a mess.

LOTS of mistakes in the converted scores, even scores made with… Musescore. Great concept, great idea, but it sill does'nt work very well. I guess in a few years that's gonna be a great tool.

I’ve been trying this for hours now - says its converted, the converted doc stays in LOADING and its stuck there

Really makes my job easier!

Very nice support! Responded quickly and also accepted ideas for the future.

I was looking for software that could do this for me and finally found it!

I couldn't access the software at first, I wrote to support and they helped me

I had a few minor scanning errors, but most of it was correct. I contacted support and they were able to help me.

Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for!

Don't download it in C: or you cannot open it.

I tried scanning converting several PDF scores to XML and even when the scores were directly creating by music scoring programs, I got loads of silly errors. Other programs seem to work MUCH better and I regret my purchase. The user interface is so minimal that you have no control, eg where the converted file is saved, you can't zoom in on a PC, plus you also have to install MuseHub before you can do anything. Not for me and certainly not capable of doing even simple tasks.

I've been trying to download this for weeks. I purchased it and have been unable to use it. I've submitted several tickets to MuseHub support and get the automated "We've received your request. We'll get back to you within 48 hours." I have STILL NOT heard anything about how to receive my purchase.

Patient support which is really a big +

Become much better since the latest update

I did have problems getting onto it at first - the same issue everyone has been talking about in reviews about authentication - but when I did manage to get in and try it I found it to be much more accurate than the native converter in musescore. A lot less edits needed to make the part useable than the alternative from Musescore.

Even though I own this app after purchasing, when I go to launch it, I receive a message that I have to authenticate the purchase at Musehub (which tells me that I own it.) It never launches. Several different inquiries to the Halbestunde people went unanswered, including a screenshot of the error, the Musehub indication that I paid for it and the stupidity of it all. No response. DO NOT BUY THIS APP! I can't tell you whether it works or not as it won't launch (and they don't care.)

If I look at the ROI based on an hourly wage...a simple one page 4 part open score song was able to be converted fairly easily. Still a few errors but workable. So what might have taken a few hours came together in about 1.5 and that as a result of being new to MuseScore Studio. However, another more involved arrangement. Not only does it not handle multiple pages well, the music was not even recognizable. Live and learn.

the conversion is less than precise, it does not recognize multiple systems right, nor does it transcribe note clusters or symbols in the right. i’d like a refund

Waste of money. App promises a lot and does not notate accurately. App has no idea what to do with transposing instruments

Did not read the score accurately. I’d like my money back.
