It's the fully-featured version of the PhotoScore Lite scanning software for Sibelius and G7. Plus it can scan music into other MIDI software such as sequencers. You can even use it on its own to scan in, play back, transpose and print scores, and even save audio files.

PhotoScore Ultimate reads printed and handwritten music in seconds – not just the notes, but also printed slurs, dynamics, lyrics, guitar tab, chord diagrams and more. You can then edit or transpose the music, play it back, extract the parts and print – just as if you'd input it yourself.

The third installment in the Groovy Music series of programs for primary school children, Groovy City helps children learn and create music in a futuristic cityscape.

Designed for 9- to 11-year-olds, Groovy City delves deeper into music notation and provides more complex listening tasks. Children are also introduced to question and answer phrases and the blues scale, so that they can begin to build up more sophisticated compositions.

Groovy Jungle introduces children to notes and notation, ostinato, major and minor, and simple musical terms. More complex musical textures are explored, and additional instruments allow them to experiment further with their own compositions.

Designed for students of all ages and abilities, Musition is easy to use and creates a stimulating learning environment, so students progress quickly and achieve their maximum potential. What's more, Musition automatically marks all the tests for you, so students can use it unaided.
