Modify the scores for musical compositions stored as PDF files. Export the music-related elements from a document and play it in a compatible program or export it in miscellaneous formats like MYR, WAV or AIFF, MusicXML, and MIDI. Edit the extracted materials.

PDFtoMusic Pro lets you convert music scores in PDF format to other formats, particularly MusicXML, which makes them compatible with many editors. Likewise, the tool supports converting written music to digital audio in various formats. Fortunately, there is a lot of support for the users of this product in the form of a user guide and forum. It is also very convenient that anyone can receive technical support, even if they are not registered users.

The application has an easy-to-use interface. At first sight, it looks like a regular PDF reader. However, it has some buttons to control audio playback. Luckily, it supports importing all the compatible PDFs contained in the intended folder and subfolders. It comes with various sample files and gives you access to a huge online repository, with the possibility of searching by words or by note sequence.

In addition to the standard view mode, it supports other modes. For instance, there is the lectern mode, which allows performers to follow music on screen. Likewise, there is the lyrics display, similar to a karaoke and intended for singing.

As said, PDFtoMusic Pro can convert PDF music scores to XML. Yet, it supports many other output formats, such as MIDI, Myr as well as sound formats like MP3, WAV and AIFF. Luckily, it also exports to MyrWeb format, which allows displaying and playing music scores on the web without any specific addon. Likewise, you can export to SVG, a scalable picture format. Regrettably, the app cannot import scanned score sheets.

To conclude, PDFtoMusic Pro does a remarkable job in converting PDF music scores into other formats. The tool can be tried at no cost but only processes the first page of each file. Finally, you should know that there are two modules (Virtual Singer and MyrSynth-Guitar) which require purchasing separate licenses.
