Needs Custom Chord Diagram Support

Presonus now has two Notion desktop products...Notion 6 and Notion Mobile, which you can buy for Mac (you can also buy it separately for iPad and other platforms). The price is reasonable, even considering you have to pay for each platform, but the crucial missing feature for me is the ability to customize guitar chord diagrams. This keeps me using Notion 6 for Mac, though I do use Notion mobile on iPad some (again, purchased separately). I'm not sure what Presonus' Notion roadmap looks like, but if Notion Mobile is the replacement for Notion 6 on desktop, and it's not going to introduce custom guitar chord diagrams, I need to switch to another application. I don't want to continue using Notion 6 if it's not going to be developed further...it's a bit dated already and Notion 7 is long overdue.

DEVELOPERS... once again

From the last time I sent my review complaining about Notion Mobile crashing when I had almost finished my score - I completed the piece I was working on once again. (Like most musicians, I'm under a tight schedule!) Constantly, while I was writing the music, I would exit the app every 5 minutes or so in order that it wouldn't delete all my work. This morning, I recieved your response and immediately looked in my files to see if the file was there. Sadly, it wasn't. :( Look, I really like ya'lls progam and essentially everything ya'll have put into it, but this crashing thing needs to be sorted out. Working on pieces for hours only to see it miraculously disappear in a second is very discouraging to my musical career. There is no other app in the Apple Appstore that offers the ability to compose music like Notion Mobile - not one. Ya'll are a gem. (I understand all gems have blemishes) :)

Great App

This App is great for making big arrangements, from the selection part, to the transcriving. It is simple and the robot doesn't sound half bad. However there is no "safe file" feature and when the app crashes(happens more than I'd like to say) your score gets deleted. If it wasn't for this then the app would get a 5 star rating.

Satisfying

It meats my requirements, it just hard to get around and figure out the controls. Like I don't know how to conect the base clef and treble clef so that they play at the same time. It does have a lot of videos to explain the controls, I just cant find how to connect the treble and bass clef.

If this is replacing Notion 6, I'm done.

I've been using GUI's since 1986, Notion/Progression since 2012. I'm staring at a screen and I can't tell how to save a file without going to the "manual." (Yes, Cmd-S seems to work now, but it didn't before. I still see no GUI way to do it.) Every key-shortcut I've tried (except Cmd-S) seems to have changed. I can't create custom chord frames, which is an absolute deal-breaker. Tie's don't seem to work across bar lines... To say I am disappointed, the more I work with this...

Making great progress

Notion Mobile 3.x is stable and adding features at a fairly rapid pace. It's already by far the fastest way to enter notation, chords and lyrics. It is not intended as a music engraving program, but holds its own pretty well with simpler pieces. I look forward to seeing further developments.

Description

With over 10 years in the App Store, Notion Mobile is a free, award-winning music composition tool for iOS, iPadOS®, macOS and more! You’ll effortlessly create dynamic compositions in traditional musical notation or guitar tablature with its intuitive touch-based interface and incredibly broad editing capabilities. With a user-friendly interface and simple interactive piano keyboard, fretboard, drum pad, and even optional Handwriting Recognition, Notion Mobile makes it easy to get started composing your music. You can also hear your music performed with the most realistic playback possible, using real audio samples recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios. Notion Mobile is a native cross-platform app, meaning you can write anywhere on any device without requiring a constant Internet connection. And when you’re back online, you’ll be able to sync your work across multiple devices — either through your preferred cloud provider, or through the optional wireless transfer between PreSonus applications on any device. Start your work on one device and finish it on another. Once you are happy with your creation you can share the Notion file, or export as MIDI, MusicXML, PDF or as an audio file. Compose, edit, and play back your music performed with real piano and orchestral samples recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios — along with outstanding sampled guitar, bass, drums and other popular instruments. And when you’re ready for more sounds, you’ll find the extensive library of Notion Add-on Soundsets to purchase as part of the Feature Bundle. To save space, the initial app download contains just piano — you can then manage which of the bundled Soundsets to have on your device or keep in the cloud, just tap on Sound Installation. Notion has been featured in various Apple campaigns including the 2014 YourVerse television commercials and has won several awards, including a prestigious music industry NAMM TEC Award for Best Smartphone/Tablet App. What you get: Notion Mobile includes unlimited staves, comprehensive editing features and core orchestral and rhythm section Soundsets — all for free. You can optionally register (also for free!) to unlock an additional Soundset (containing Solo Strings, Classical Saxophones and Glockenspiel), the multivoice function that allows writing in up to 4 voices per staff, and access to the friendly Notion Mobile User Forum. Then for the full experience, either sign in with your Studio One+ membership or purchase the Notion Feature Bundle. This unlocks Handwriting Recognition, layout controls, all the Expansion Soundsets (including many auxiliary instruments and additional articulations and effects), additional audio export formats (m4a, OPUS, FLAC) and direct file transfer between any PreSonus application running on the same network (including Notion Mobile, Notion Desktop, and Studio One.)
