Questions
What to know before uploading.
Do I need to install any software?
No. StaveWave runs online, so it works the same on Mac, Windows, Linux, iPad, or a Chromebook with nothing to install.
Do I have to do anything extra to get MIDI?
No. It's produced with every conversion and engraving job, next to the notation files.
Can I make a separate track for each part?
It's rendered per part, so you can solo or mute a line and bounce per-part audio.
How accurate is the playback?
It depends on the notation — review flagged measures before relying on the audio.
