When will the next update be?
Hi, Bob.
I’m sorry for replying so late.
Thank you for using the app.
The new version is currently being tested, and is expected to be submitted for Apple’s review in the first half of next month. So, if the review has progressed smoothly, the app will be released in January, 2015.
The new version will include some bug fixes, improvements to existing features, time signature support (3/4 and 5/4), and some new playing styles.
Saw you editor and am interested, but it doesn’t mention importing midi as an option, plus after reading other parts of the description, not sure I want to pay to try. Is there a free version limiting measures or something I can play with?
Thank you for your interest in PhraseNote. Since PhraseNote can not completely express MIDI format, there is no import function. Also, at the moment there is no free version.
とても重宝しておりますありがとうございます。
移調するときにオンコードを使っていると、ルートが移調されず上のコードだけ移調されてしまうバグがあるようです。
対応していただけるととても嬉しいです。
Sota様、バグのご報告ありがとうございます。
次回アップデートで対応致しますので、ご不便おかけしますがしばしお待ちください。
操作しやすいです。ipod touchの小さな画面でも不便は感じることはありません。とても良い。
今のままでも楽しいけどベース用にもう1トラック使えたならばスケッチ用としては最高。そういう方向の追加があればと思います。

お返事が遅くなり申し訳ありません。PhraseNote をご活用いただきありがとうございます。
複数トラックのサポートは今後のバージョンアップで検討させていただきます。
曲の途中で転調させるアレンジは使えないのでしょうか？
それと、リピートマークを使った時、１カッコは１小節以上になると使えないのですか？

お返事遅くなり申し訳ありません。PhraseNote をご利用いただきありがとうございます。
途中での転調は現在サポートしていません。今後のバージョンアップでサポートする予定ですので、ご不便おかけしますがお待ちいただければと思います。
リピートマークの1カッコについては、添付画像のように配置されれば２小節以上も入力可能です。
Can I do SABT notes in this app & play them at the same time?
Thanks,
Titus
Hi Titus,
SATB notes are currently not supported, but the next version will support the feature!
What is meant by multiple notes? In the new version?
Also I would like to see the pinch to zoom ability added.
Thank you.
Hi Robert,
I just added new help movies about multiple notes and multiple voices.
Please refer to “Add multiple notes” and “Switch voice layer” section.
Thank you for the feature request. I’ll consider to add the pinch to zoom ability!
How do I get started? How do I show the piano keyboard? The first score I attempted to write wouldn’t retain the key signature I wanted. So the application is a total pain as far as I can see.
Hi Keble,
Thank you for your feedback. I’ll improve the introduction.
Could you tell me about the situation that the score has not been retained the key?
I have written some music and now I am unable to move this .
The page is stuck, no options to move on!
What is the solution?
I’m sorry for replying so late.
Thank you for using the app.
Currently, the only export option is MIDI. I will implement other export options in the future.
