Description
NotaGen is an innovative AI-powered tool designed for musicians and composers to create classical sheet music effortlessly. This free online platform allows users to generate original scores by selecting a period, composer style, and instrumentation. The AI model, trained on classical repertoire, composes music note by note, ensuring that each result is a readable and editable score, not just an audio clip. Users can also upload recordings to transcribe them into editable MusicXML scores, with options to adjust tempo and key. The platform supports exporting scores in ABC, MusicXML, and MIDI formats, compatible with popular notation software like MuseScore, Sibelius, and Finale.
NotaGen offers a seamless experience with no installation required, running directly in the browser. It caters to a wide range of users, from composers and students to educators and arrangers, providing tools to start drafts, study harmony, generate examples for classes, and create source material for re-voicing. The platform supports 112 style combinations across three musical eras, 62 composer voices, and six ensembles, allowing users to explore a vast array of musical possibilities.
The pricing plans for NotaGen include a Starter plan with 120 sheet music credits per month, a Standard plan with 280 credits, and a Premium plan with 700 credits. Each plan offers features like AI sheet music generation, audio transcription, and unlimited free sheet music to MIDI conversions. NotaGen was founded by musician and algorithm engineer Steve Alexander, who envisioned a unified platform where every part of a song creation process could coexist, from lyrics to stems.
NotaGen's mission is to make music creation accessible to everyone, eliminating the need for extensive musical training. The platform continues to evolve, expanding its tools and capabilities to shorten the distance between an idea and a finished track.
