I am very unsatisfied with the performance of this app. Choral music gets transcribed horrible. A lot of mistakes - even in discount I would not bye this app agein

Bought this to transfer Sibelius’ Symphonies to midi. apart from the quality is terrible, there are places where the file is uncompatible with musescore, making me unable to open the score. Tried on a Beethoven Piano Sonata, much more satisfying, but just when rhythm become complicated it cannot align. Simpler notations works best…
It's really useful, but I wish it would also recognize the text.
It really helps me a lot in my daily work, it takes so much work off my hands.

One of the better digitization software around the market. I have tried many and this one is probably the easiest to use and it capture the main melody notes. The scan doesn't detect words, mainly notes. Which can possibly save you hours.
If scan quality is not good and doesn't have clear separation. you are better off keying in manual fresh from start.
Get it while it's on sale! pretty good deal if purchased on sales price.
