Magic Stave Midi Recorder App Reviews

Because the human voice varies so much more than traditional instruments, maybe it would be possible to have a time constraint limited to 1/16 or 1/32. The user could choose the tempo and a click track count in would help them to stay on track from the beginning. And every note would be constrained to the tempo and the quarter note 8th note or whatever they choose.

Is there a way I can listen to the midi recording in the app? I dont see a play button? Thanks

Cant even play the recorded midi. Have to export to a computer to play.

New display for Violin very innovative ! This app deserves 5 stars ! Looking forward to Mandolin Fretboard !

Ever since I was a youngster learning music, I dreamed of an app that would allow me to hum or sing a melody and immediately show me the notes. That dream has come true with Magic Stave. If you have a modicum of ability to sing on key, you can use this app to figure out any melody you imagine. I have fairly decent relative pitch from many years of playing music, but sometimes I just cannot figure out an interval by ear. Magic Stave to the rescue! If I can sing it on key, Magic Stave can tell me exactly what note I’m singing and I can figure out the interval from there. It can display the note position on various instruments, including guitar, AND show you the actual note name on the stave (A C note will actually appear as the letter “C”). This is fantastic for dummy, self-taught rock guitar players like me who only have very basic music reading ability. As an added bonus, Magic Stave can now immediately PLAY that melody with one of several instruments along with outputting the MIDI file. You don’t have to wait to import the MIDI file to a DAW anymore (although importing the MIDI file is also a FANTASTIC feature). All around an awesome app! I’d buy this app 10 more times if I could. It’s THAT good to me.

I got this app to help me write music when I had a melody. This is probably one of the most confusing apps Ive ever used, and does a very bad job of finding the correct notes. It also ignores double notes, even if you rest between them. Its one of the worst apps Ive ever had to experience using.

not sure this app works at all. directions are confusing and i do not believe this works as advertised. wanted it for ukulele since there is not much sheet music available. I cant get it to work at all. I would be happy to retract this if we can get this to work or provide some education.

The notes it plays back and also detects are incorrect. It also sounds terrible. Its a stupid app.

Just learning to read music and this is amazing! Love the ability to show the notes as the note names rather than as notes. I’m learning fast. It’s amazingly fast and accurate too, how does it do that? I upgraded from the free version as I wanted to see the note positions on a guitar. Thoroughly recommended!

This accurate note recognition through a simple interface. As a guitarist, it would be great if the note history could be stored and displayed in tab format within the app, as opposed to exporting the midi file and then manipulating with something like guitar pro.

I really like making my own music but, unfortunately, I dont actually know a whole lot about it. This app is really helpful for me when it comes to figuring out which notes Im singing, and it even shows me where those notes are played on the piano, which saves me a lot of time and effort. The only thing upon which I believe could be improved is the clarity of how to use everything, because Im fairly certain Im not making the most of this app, but purely because I dont quite understand how to go about using it. Maybe its just me and Im somehow missing something that would be straightforward for another person, but Im still confused nonetheless. Overall, it has been a good app for what Im using it for.

Great app. I use it to find notes in songs. However, it doesnt function on any of my iOS9 devices. Please fix that!!!!

Could use better accuracy sometimes but about 95% accurate sometimes theres a delay in note display if singing into the phone but it has helped me a lot with pitch and songwriting I highly recommend it.

Would you provide an option for fingering tapes for violin? It would show whether the note is correct, or between tones. Magic Stave seems to have some trouble detecting notes above high E (in the octave above middle C). I think I saw a notice about improving this, though the same clefs still seem to be shown.
