The following new features and improvements are included in Notation Musician version 2.6.

The best MIDI-to-notation transcription software is even better!

The main transcription engine has been improved for even better accuracy and musical readability of the transcribed score.  Using  MIDI files you find on the Internet, or your own MIDI recordings, the quality of the transcribed score is better in version 2.6 than ever before.

Improved Chord Name Transcription and Editing

Musician has a number of major improvements in the entry and analysis of chord names, to give you more accurate results immediately.
The simplified Chord Name Analysis dialog makes it easier to get the chord names you want for your song file.
The chord notes analysis has been improved to make the chord names that Notation Musician gives you more accurate.
The new Chord Builder dialog lets you see and hear the notes for the chord names you are entering.  You can also use your MIDI keyboard to enter chord names by playing them on your keyboard.
The new Paste Chord Names command allows you to copy just the chord names from a region and then paste them to another selected region for quick chord name entry if you already know the chord names you want in the score.
You can now change the Enharmonic Spelling of chord names, to give alternate chord names that might be more familiar to you or your band members.

Tap-In Delay Detection for MIDI Devices

Musician now gives you the ability to calibrate your MIDI playback device(s) on your machine so that you hear the notes exactly when they highlight, even if you are unable to locate the delay time (latency) value in your instrument manual or in  an Internet search.

Improved behavior when editing large files

Notation Musician has improved handling of large files to process them more quickly to give you quicker editing response time and quicker file opening.

Improved Easy Notes (Pitch Name) display options

Aspiring musicians can now select whether to show Easy Notes (pitch name noteheads) staves with or without a key signature, as well as with or without courtesy accidentals.
