How it works
From file upload to finished score in three steps.
Upload your audio
Drop an MP3, WAV, MIDI file — or photograph a handwritten score. ScoreSynth accepts any common audio format.
AI reads every note
Our transcription model detects pitch, rhythm, dynamics, and articulations. Multi-instrument recordings are split by voice automatically.
Download or edit
Export as PDF, MusicXML, MIDI, SVG, or MP3. Open directly in the ScoreSynth editor to refine before exporting.
What the AI handles for you
Polyphonic detection
Identifies multiple simultaneous voices and instruments in a single recording, outputting each on its own staff.
Scanned score OCR
Upload a photo of handwritten or printed sheet music. The AI reconstructs the notation into a fully editable digital score.
Rhythm quantization
Converts free-tempo recordings to clean notated rhythms. Choose quantization level from 16th notes to whole notes.
All major export formats
PDF for printing, MusicXML for Sibelius / Finale / MuseScore, MIDI for DAWs, SVG for web, MP3 for listening.
