An Optical Music Recognition (OMR) application, featuring an OMR engine coupled with a dedicated editor.
It recognizes music from digitized images and converts it into computer-readable symbolic format. This enables further music processing by any external notation editor, most notably: digital playback, transposition and arrangement.
Audiveris provides outputs in two main digital formats: its OMR format and standard MusicXML format. It has a graphical user interface focused on quick verification and manual correction of the OMR outputs. Other music editors, such as MuseScore, Finale, or Lilypond, can be used on Audiveris MusicXML output.
