STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN, January 18, 2013 – DoReMIR
Music Research announces the U.S. release of ScoreCleaner, the highly nuanced and easy-to-use notation software
that has been revolutionizing the European market for digital notation since
2011. ScoreCleaner is a notation tool
that enables musicians, composers, teachers and ensemble leaders to notate
music instantly while they play. Unlike other notation software, ScoreCleaner is truly plug and play,
converting live performances to accurate notation in real time, with absolutely
no training required.
The technology behind ScoreCleaner is built on 20 years of academic
research in music cognition, which seeks to explain how humans understand music
on a basic level. From that research DoReMIR has designed a piece of software
that understands musical phrasing and artistic intent.
“Our goal was to design software which
is at the service of music and people, not the other way around,” says Founder
and Professor Sven Ahlbäck from the Royal College of Music in Stockholm. “There
are no advanced computer skills or pre-sets needed for the program. This makes it possible to be used
by both teachers and students not previously acquainted with music notation
software, while still being sophisticated enough to be utilized by the most
seasoned musician.”
DoReMIR Music Research is also previewing
Score
Cleaner Notes at NAMM, an instant audio recognition application. Score
Cleaner Notes enables anyone who can whistle or sing a tune to have it
rendered instantly into correct notation and MIDI through their iPhone or iPad,
publish to social media, sync it with ScoreCleaner,
and extend it into a full score using ScoreCleaner or any other notation tool
of choice.
DoReMIR CTO Sven Emtell explains, “The
input into ScoreCleaner right now is MIDI information either played
directly or as standard MIDI Files containing performance MIDI or quantized
MIDI. For some time now we’ve been working on the next leap, where the input
into ScoreCleaner is audio. We’re proud to announce that we’ve got an
audio recognition solution that we believe will be one of the best audio recognition
solutions on the planet.”
demonstrated by Professor Ahlbäck at a press conference in
the NAMM Media Center on Friday, January 25th at 11:30am with
special guest, America’s Got Talent winner Taylor Mathews.
“In the world of music notation, it’s rare to find a new product that’s as
exciting and inspiring as this one,” adds Mark Hiskey, president of ILIO. “One
of the things I find exciting is that this product allows songwriters who may
not even know how to read music to instantaneously write a score. They can
share it with band mates, or self-publish, which really hasn’t been possible
until now. ”
ScoreCleaner’s MSRP is
$139.00; Teacher version is $99.00; Student Version is $69.00.
