About

Ableton Note is a playable mobile app for sketching musical ideas anywhere, experimenting with sounds, capturing improvisations, and sampling the environment. Users can start with drum kits, melodic instruments, synth sounds, or their own recordings, then develop ideas by creating beats, melodies, chord progressions, and variations. Note includes a 16-pad percussion grid, a 25-pad melodic grid, piano roll, MIDI editing, quantization, note nudging, velocity changes, transposition, and external MIDI support over USB or Bluetooth. Capture MIDI lets musicians keep something they just played without pressing record first: Note detects the tempo and length and automatically turns the performance into a loop. Users can record sounds through their device microphone into Drum Sampler or Melodic Sampler, then cut, filter, repitch, and process samples with effects.

About

A simple and intuitive way to write musical notation or guitar tabs, Crescendo allows composers to write, save and print their music compositions on their computer. The wide array of sheet music symbols, time and key signatures, along with a free-form layout, gives a composer optimum control over creating sheet music for their arrangements. Add whole, half, quarter, eighth, sixteenth and thirty-second notes and rests (semibreve to demisemiquaver). Use drum kits and templates to write percussion notation. Create dotted notes, chords, add repeats, and more. Insert text to specify a title, tempo, dynamics or lyrics. Copy, cut and paste measures to easily insert themes. Brace staves together to compose scores for ensembles. Supports VSTi instruments, such as piano or violin, for quality MIDI playback.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Very easy to use comprehensive software with surprisingly good versatility. The layout is clear and access to infrequently used symbols was easily found. Really very promising. I have only previously used pen and ink. Not sure how it compares with the rival 'Sibelius'. I have not had a chance to try out the higher upgrades. Certainly the available ornamentation was rather limited, as probably expected in the free trial. The method of choosing accidentals was, I think, easier than that of your main competitor from what I have seen so far. I was not unable to place ornamentation symbols below the bottom note of a chord for either the right or the left hand, commonly seen in old keyboard music, the symbol always appearing above the chord instead. Again this may be a limitation of the free software version.

Cons

  • Free trial expired before I had time to copy an illegible 18c French harpsichord manuscript and try playing it for real, so full assessment a bit limited. I was just getting really interested! A little too easy to scatter unwanted notes such was the sensitivity using a laptop. Maybe a mouse would have been easier? I expect practice would make perfect. I didn't see a tenor clef choice. This is used a lot in original scripts. Cost is a major concern. Most professional musicians are constantly cash-strapped, and amateurs or the retired can't put the cost against tax in the UK. The playback sounded as if performed by Les Dawson so I have upgraded my opinion of him!
