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.
Please, for the love of god learn your thing recognize the drum notes. I paid for this to extract the drum part while being on a tight deadline (the sibelius project file was lost forever) and it feels like I wasted my money..
This has just saved me an ungodly amount of time! Seems to produce very few errors when working from nice clean pdf files. I've only picked up one error in 5 pages so far! These were scored for piano and flute, with the flute parts being for beginners and the piano at around intermediate level, so not super complex but also not the simplest thing I could give it. This will save me a tonne of time transposing parts for different instruments, and I'm interested to see how well it handles more complex scores too. Understandably a couple of errors when I fed it a photo of a 1-page piano score (beginner music, nothing complex!) in jpg format, but still did a good job on that overall, and still heaps quicker to fix those errors than it would have been to manually notate it myself. It didn't pick up anything at all from a photo in png format even though it was similar quality (to human eyes) to the jpg, but that's not an issue for me.
Gute App. Wie oft kommen Updates?
I’ve been using this sheat music scanner app for a few week now and I’m realy impressed! It scans the pages fast and accuretly, even when the lighting isn't perfet. Would be great if it would detect text as welltho
Great to get the MIDI from a score and play with it around in audacity or Logic. Wrote the support about some issus. Waiting for the responds …
This is so helpfull for rearrraning! Saves a lot of time!
NOT CORRECT AT ALL!
Funcionó unas pocas veces y luego ya no hay manera de usarlo, se niega a abrirse. He probado todo e parece ser un error común sin aparente solución. Pagas para algo que no puedes usar.
Every time I try opening the app, it tells me that it needs to verify via MuseHub. I contacted support and they said I should uninstall and reinstall musehub, which I did a few times and nothing worked. I’m hoping an update soon fixes this.
... converts to a piece consisting only of the second page. Weird weird mistakes etc. It's still faster then typing by hand since I suck at piano. If you can play the notes to musescrore straight, then stay away of this.
After a few tests, I finally found a workflow that gives very accurate results and saved me a lot of time. Very usefull tool.
I like the results that Halbestunde produces, but I am sometimes annoyed by the GUI, especially when I try to process many files in a row. For example, why doesn't it suggest a file name when saving based on the PDF file name?
Nice and fast support! Really appreciate that
Works well I tested it with an orchestral score containing numerous tuplets, polyrhythms, meter changes, and time and key signature changes. It recognized most notes (approximately 97-99%). HOWEVER, although it recognized some tuplets, it didn’t recognize most of them, so, polyrythms were pretty much gone, as well as some time signature changes, dynamics and some minor indications. Therefore, some editing is neccesary in order to achieve a good result, at least with complex orchestral music. Can’t wait to use it for work and school! Looking forward to further updates, so far it’s good for an early version
