Key features:
• Take a picture of a page of music and MusicPal will process the photo, enabling you to hear what you see.
• Press play to hear and follow along with the music.
• Tap to hear any note or chord.
• Tap and drag to listen to a selection.
• Pinch to zoom in and out.
• Change playback tempo and transposition level.
• Tap music clefs to mute and unmute staves: hear the right hand part while playing the left hand part, and vice versa.
• Use the toolbar buttons to loop a passage, or go note by note.
• Supports only keyboard music (two staves) and monophonic instrumental music (one staff).
• Play our Symbol Search game to help train MusicPal to read music more accurately.

Successful results depend on the quality, completeness, and simplicity of the musical score image. MusicPal is designed to take pictures of conventional Western sheet music notation that is printed on paper. MusicPal will not properly photograph guitar tab, handwritten music, vocal music with lyrics, music with specialized notations, or sheet music displayed on laptop and mobile screens.

Really love MusicPal!! I’ve been looking for something like this for years since I’ve been trying to learn piano. I like all the music in the gallery and the photo feature is like magic. Amazing. I use it most times that I play. Thank you MusicPal!


Great tool!

This is a great tool for students and musicians looking to improve their sheet music skills. Finally an app that will let you take a picture of sheet music and play it back to you!


Incredible!

A must have for anyone who struggles to read music. I am astounded at how well this app works, and cannot overstate its utility for someone like myself who is learning to play an instrument and read music!


Totes amazing

Just snapped a shot of Radiohead "Let Down" and it played back! Breakthrough app. Permanent addition to my music folder. Well done!


Killer app

This app is a great tool for music educators! There must be some incredible machinery underneath the surface because I am able to instantaneously turn my sheet music into playable music in digital form. Great work devs!

Very cool app, soo cool that you can hear the notes just by taking a pic.


Whoa! Pretty cool

I’ve seen other apps that try to do this, but none that work even this well by far. It’s not always perfect, but it’s still really impressive. Keeper! Can’t wait to see the improvements.


More Accurate

I might be wrong, but i feel like the app's accuracy has been improved a bit.


100% Best Value Sheet Music Reader
Steve Buscemeyes

I've tried a few other sheet music reader apps before and some were ok, but I can’t believe how good this one is at the price of… FREE! I like that it promises to get better too as I use it more and play more of the mini games.
