Unscore Me 2

September 2026

We rebuilt Unscore Me. It reads your score better, it is much faster, and the editor is easier to use. Here is what changed.

Better reading of your score

  • Much faster: most scores are ready in a few seconds.
  • Finds the staves and systems on many more scores: small orchestral staves, scans, crooked pages and pale or blurry copies.
  • Uses the instrument names printed on the score as the names of your parts.
  • Measure numbers are back: your parts get them when the score prints them.
  • Marks the pages where it is not sure, and tells you what to check.

A new editor

  • Each staff shows its part name on the left.
  • Split a system in two, or join two systems, with one click.
  • Move all the staves of a part to another part in one step.
  • Straighten a crooked page and read it again.
  • Zoom in to the width of your screen.
  • The preview shows your part exactly as you will download it.

Also new

  • The site works on phones. The editor still needs a larger screen.
  • A new purple look, easier to read in both light and dark mode.
  • When many people upload at the same time, your score waits its turn instead of failing.

Verify your email to keep downloading

September 2026

Your first download now works right after signing up — no detour to the inbox. For any further score we ask you to confirm your email address first; if the verification mail has gone missing, the download dialog offers a one-click resend.

See your download allowance

September 2026

The documents page now shows how many score downloads you have left — and the new Usage section in Settings keeps the same count one click away. As a reminder, one download covers every part of a score, and re-downloading a score you already took stays free.

Clearer errors for oversized scores

September 2026

Scores scanned or exported onto pages far larger than any paper size (over about 33 inches on a side) used to fail with a bare “Processing failed”. The engine now detects those up front and tells you what happened: the pages are too large for the current detection engine, and re-scanning or re-exporting the PDF at a standard page size usually fixes it. Invalid PDFs and documents over the page limit now get specific messages too.

More room on the free trial

September 2026

The free trial now includes five downloads instead of two. The trial is meant to answer one question — does the detection handle the scores you actually use? — and two scores turned out to be too few to answer it properly. As before, a score only counts the first time you download from it, re-downloads stay free, and uploading, processing and editing are unmetered.

Bigger scores on the free trial

August 2026

Trial accounts could only upload scores of up to 10 pages, which meant a real orchestral score was refused before you got to see whether the detection handled it. The limit is now 60 pages, so you can put an actual full score through the pipeline and judge the result on your own material rather than on a short excerpt. Downloads are still what counts against the trial, so nothing else changes.

A clearer Plans page

August 2026

The Plans page now explains how the limits actually work rather than just listing them: quota is spent on downloads and not uploads, a score only ever counts once no matter how many times you re-download it, and the weekly allowance rolls over a seven-day window instead of resetting on the first of the month. Billing questions are answered on the page too, covering cancelling, refunds, switching plans and who processes payment.

Measure numbers paused

August 2026

Generated parts no longer carry measure-number badges in the left margin. Barline detection wasn't reliable enough across real scores, and a wrong measure number is worse than none. We're rebuilding it against a proper test set and will bring it back as an option you can turn on.

Guides & how-tos on the Help page

June 2026

The Help page now collects our task guides and how-to articles in one place — splitting a score PDF, extracting orchestra or instrument parts, and more — so you can find the right walkthrough without hunting.

Document arrangement

May 2026

Parts are no longer locked to a single instrument segment. You can now assemble a part from multiple segments across the score - useful when an instrument shares a staff or appears intermittently - and reorder how those segments stack in the final PDF.

Editor improvements

May 2026
  • Add new segments to an existing part by arming it from the sidebar.
  • Segment boundaries extend into the side gutters for cleaner edits.
  • Unsaved changes are surfaced in the editor so you don't lose work.

Score metadata you can edit

April 2026

Title, composer, edition, and copyright are now editable after upload, displayed in a library-card layout on the score page. Fix typos or fill in details you didn't have at upload time.

Logged-in landing page

April 2026

Signed-in users now land on a page that combines upload and your recent scores, so you can pick up where you left off without an extra click.
