Roll

Sheet music → MusicXML

Your sheet music,
off the page.

Photograph a score and Roll turns it into notation you can play, edit, and export — the way it looked on paper.

How it works

Three steps from photo to playback.

STEP 01

Photograph it

Snap the page with your phone or drop in a PDF. Crooked, shadowed, multi-page — Roll straightens and reads it.

STEP 02

Roll reads every staff

It finds each system, reads the notes line by line, and re-checks the parts that look uncertain instead of guessing.

STEP 03

Play, edit, export

Hear it back, mute parts, nudge the tempo, then export clean MusicXML for MuseScore, Dorico, or Sibelius.

What you get

Built to be checked, not just trusted.

Recognition is only half the job. Roll makes the result playable and easy to verify against the page you started with.

Instant playback

Every notehead lights up the moment it sounds, so you can follow along and catch what's off by ear.

Pick your parts

Solo the melody, mute the accompaniment, or export just the voices you need from a multi-part score.

Keeps the original layout

Roll reproduces the same measures-per-line as your source — so it still reads like the sheet you scanned, even in MuseScore.

Adjust the tempo

Slow a hard passage down to learn it, or speed it up to check the feel — playback follows in real time.

Flags what to double-check

Measures that look uncertain get marked, so you know exactly where to compare against the original.

Clean MusicXML export

Standard MusicXML that opens in the notation software you already use — no lock-in, no proprietary format.

Honest by design

OMR isn't magic. Roll shows its work.

No scanner reads music perfectly — anyone who says otherwise is selling you a clean-up job. Roll's difference is that it points at the measures worth a second look, instead of hiding the guesses inside a tidy-looking score.
