Overview

Advanced music notation and performance software.

Notion 1.5 is designed so musicians can focus on music, not technology. Enter, edit, and manipulate data-rich notation instantly from your workstation or your MIDI instrument. The designer of the acclaimed MusicPrinter„¢ Plus has now created the most intuitive score entry ever, with all the advanced features you need to create the most complex scores.

Be composer and conductor at once.
For the first time, you can compose directly to the orchestra without file conversions, patches, sequencers, or separate sample batches. Employ Notion's expressive and realistic playback of dynamics, crescendo, diminuendo, tempo changes, grace notes, arpeggios, pizzicato/arco, pedal marks, fermatas, quarter tones, and more.

What you write is what you hear.
The NOTION interpretive sample playback engine is notation-driven, capturing every nuance of composition.
