I'm a music historian and need a way of listening to piano scores I have in sheet music form since I can't play them myself. I'm not sure whether Sharpeye will by itself scan the sheet music and play it back via my computer speakers using RealPlayer or one of the other pieces of bundled software in my (Windows XP) computer.

You can choose the instrument, pick the speed and enjoy! 2 for 1 universal iOS app: iPhone / iPod touch and iPad - you get Sheet Music Scanner for all your iOS devices for the price of one.

Expense is an issue here.Request for Question Clarification byon14 Aug 2006 09:12 PDT Any software that can scan sheet music will require that you go backthrough the scanned music and check for accuracy. There is no programthat is 100% accurate. Is this acceptable? And are you willing to usedifferent software at a small cost if Sharpeye won't work?KriswriteClarification of Question byjinahasa-gaon14 Aug 2006 13:42 PDT YesRequest for Question Clarification byon15 Aug 2006 09:15 PDT I am working on your question, but I need a clarification: Is it okayif the music plays back via the scanning program, rather than viaRealPlayer or some other software?Thanks,KriswriteClarification of Question byjinahasa-gaon16 Aug 2006 06:50 PDT In principle, it doesn't matter at all. I need to feed sheet musicinto beginning of the process and hear music at the end. I would'vethought that a program using Real Player, Music Match Jukebox, or theHP media Center for the second part of the process would be cheaperthan one that duplicates something my standard software can alreadydo.

I wanted to make sure that mycompleted Answer fully met your needs.I have tested Sharpeye, and yes, it will play the music for you onceyou've scanned it into the program.
(It will play the music within theSharpeye software, not on RealPlayer or some other software.) I'massuming you don't already have the program, so I recommend that youdownload the free trial of Sharpeye, so you can test out the softwareand see if you like it.I'd also like to recommend a product that I use, and which is cheaperthan Sharpeye: Finale Print Music. It is $99.95 (as opposed toSharpeye's $169) and is in a family of the best music notationsoftware available today. The scans from this software are consideredmore accurate than other, comparable software. Print Music will alsoplay the resulting scan within it's own program.
