Description

From complex hand-drawn scores to quick notes for a melody that's been ringing in your head all day, get them done on MusicPad • MusicPad let's you create unlimited notepad files with unlimited sheet music pages in which to write your music. • Each page can be customised to your needs: page sizes, margins, staves configuration and more! • Near-zero latency response with Apple's industry standard PencilKit frameworks. • It offers Apple's tools: like pens, markers, highlighters and pencils plus eraser, selector and ruler.  • Each page can be made to hide or show its staves making it a great place for writing or drawing along with your scores, or for creating a title page for your music. • When you are finished writing it's easy to export your full document as a PDF or share the entire notepad file with friends and colleagues. • MusicPad is tightly integrated with your file system, so it is a snap to organize, share and sync your files across devices. • MusicPad allows the following gestures for positioning your page on the screen: - 2-fingers for zooming in and out - 1-finger for scrolling when the zoomed page goes beyond the device's edges - 1-finger for edge-swiping forwards or backwards through multiple pages • You have control over the gesture interaction with your page positioning and you can easily turn off all gestures if you want to make quick markings with your fingers or if you just want your page to be fixed in place. MusicPad 1.4 is compatible with all devices that run iOS or iPadOS 18 or later.  IMPORTANT  – Using your fingers for drawing is now supported (as of version 1.1) but we strongly recommend an Apple Pencil as your main precision input device.  – The iPhone version is meant as a viewer more than an editor. FREE APP The free app allows you to create unlimited MusicPad files with up to two pages each. MusicPad files can be shared across multiple devices using iCloud (collaboration not yet supported). All tools are available for you to scribble with. UNLOCK ALL FEATURES If you are happy with MusicPad and you want to support further developments you can unlock all features with a one-time purchase that will enable you to: • Create unlimited pages per document, • Customise each page to fit your needs, • Export your document as a PDF, • Remove unlock buttons.
