Noteflight Announces Premium Online Music Notation Service
Music
composers and score writers can take off with Noteflight Crescendo, a
cloud-based music notation platform that brings social music creation to
the next level.
Anaheim, CA (NAMM) -- Noteflight, LLC
(http://www.noteflight.com), a company dedicated to reinventing the way
people create, share and use written music, today announced the launch
of Noteflight Crescendo, a premium online music notation service. The
next generation of their acclaimed Noteflight platform, which enables
individuals to write music online, Crescendo provides musicians with
advanced features and improved sound quality while still offering an
easy and fun means to create and share scores.
"By launching Crescendo we are now able to provide the music community
with the best of both worlds--a more powerful online music notation
platform for professionals, educators, students and music enthusiasts
and a free model for the novice or occasional user,”"said Joe Berkovitz,
President and Founder of Noteflight.
Following the successful grassroots launch of their online music
composition and score-writing platform in 2008, which resulted in tens
of thousands of users in 130 different countries, Noteflight Crescendo
delivers users a richer sonic experience and more advanced capabilities.
An affordable, approachable alternative to desktop notation programs
such as Sibelius and Finale, Crescendo takes online music notation to a
new level while still maintaining affordability, ease-of-use and the
excitement and interactivity of a social music platform.
Built on the same elegant and powerful interface, Noteflight Crescendo
users gain access to a set of sophisticated features, including advanced
collaboration and a higher quality orchestral sound library provided by
virtual instrument manufacturer, SONiVOX (http://www.sonivoxmi.com). Where
the free version of Noteflight includes a basic set of instrument
samples drawn from the public domain, the Crescendo instrumental palette
offers over forty professionally recorded wavetable instruments from
SONiVOX. These instruments provide an immersive new dimension to the
Noteflight musical experience.
"Our partnership with Noteflight has enabled us, for the first time, to
enter the exciting new arena of cloud computing services," said Jennifer
Hruska, Founder and President of SONiVOX. "We're thrilled by the advent
of products like Crescendo that bring the audio experience of SONiVOX
instruments to the global online music community."
In addition to improved sound and more instrument choices, Noteflight
Crescendo features include the following.
- Sophisticated sharing permissions, including the ability to share
a score only with designated members of the Noteflight community.
- Ability to create templates for musical activities by themselves
or for others.
- Selection of stock templates, such as piano score, string quartet
and other ensembles.
- Access to increased storage capacity on Noteflight's servers for
storing more scores and compositions.
A subscription to Noteflight Crescendo can be purchased for under $5
per month; the company plans to launch the service later in Q1. For more
