If you are engaging in counterpoint exercises, notating a melody that has been playing in your mind all day, or sketching your next solo, MusicPad is a comprehensive solution for you.

  • MusicPad allows you to create an unlimited number of notepad files with an unlimited amount of sheet music pages for capturing your musical ideas.
  • Each page can be tailored to your preferences, from page sizes to margins and staves configurations, ensuring a personalized workspace.
  • Experience near-zero latency response utilizing Apple's industry-standard PencilKit frameworks.
  • Utilize a variety of Apple tools such as pens, markers, highlighters, pencils, erasers, selectors, and rulers for precise input.

  • After completion, effortlessly export your finished works as PDFs or share entire notepad files with friends and colleagues.
  • Seamlessly integrate MusicPad with your file system for easy organization, sharing, and syncing of files across multiple devices.

Key features of MusicPad:

    • Single finger to move the page
    • Two fingers to zoom in and out
    • Single finger edge-swiping for navigating multiple pages
