About

Fender Notion is a music notation and composition application that enables musicians to create, edit, play back, and share musical scores. The software supports standard sheet music notation, guitar tablature, percussion notation, and arrangements for multiple instruments. Users can enter notes through an interactive piano keyboard, guitar fretboard, drum pad, or supported MIDI input devices. Its playback engine uses sampled instruments, including orchestral recordings performed by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios. Fender Notion provides tools for adding chord symbols, articulations, dynamics, lyrics, and other musical markings to compositions. The application supports wireless score transfers between compatible devices and integrates with Fender Studio Pro for exchanging musical notation and MIDI data.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I could have given this app 5 stars, until they updated to Notion 6. I had arranged music and had loved the full London Symphony sampling. Its amazing how easy to use it on my iPad.

Cons

  • Until they put on the next update, changed the layout of the tools. The mandolins used to play on in a regular beat of its own, wether your tempo is slow, it performs the actual tremolo sampling, not being dependent on the set tempo. After the update, it lost its original natural tremolo tempo. The tremolo had became dependent on the tempo that it sounds so midi. If the beat is fast, the tremolo goes fast, and actually too fast it was so unnatural. If the tempo is slow, the instrument lost its tremolo, it just became a slow up-down picking. Before however, it was perfect. Some programing algorithm must have changed. I had complained about this to the company, but they don't seem to know what is going on. Even sent samples of the difference. But they never bothered.
