About MusicEase

MusicEase Software has been involved in the development of music notation software for over 25 years. Special attention has been paid to creating a good user interface. In particular, constraints have been used so users generally need have no knowledge of or pay attention to the positioning of notational elements. Other techniques from artificial intelligence have also been incorporated to make our software more powerful.

The MusicEase notation editor contains a large amount of knowledge about music notation. This allows you to quickly create professional looking scores without knowing music copyist rules. For instance, stem direction, beam scope, slant and end positions, and slur shape and location are all automatically determined. (The user can then edit these if desired.) Slurs can be inserted with a single keystroke combination.

See our Features page for a list of supported functionality.

A free evaluation version of MusicEase is available from our Download page so you can try it out before purchasing to see if it suits your needs.

Testimonials

I've been using MusicEase for more than 18 years and it has been able to do just about everything that I needed in standard music notation. It's easy to use, flexible, and has excellent technical support.

Karl Kroeger, Composer and Music Editor, Professor Emeritus of Music, University of Colorado
The simplicity of MusicEase makes changes and new arrangements very easy. For most songs, I can enter notes, chords and lyrics in around 15 minutes. I realized that I now have over 4,000 songs in my MusicEase folder.

You have every right to be proud, it seems to me. It's possible to sit at the keyboard and actually type music, once you learn a few commands. And it's certainly not hard to learn. The folks at [fill in the name of a company well known for its notation software] could learn a lot from you!
