What is AnthemScore by Lunaverus?

AnthemScore by Lunaverus is an audio file transcription tool that turns audio files into editable sheet music on your own computer. Desktop AI transcription app that converts MP3 and other audio into sheet music, PDF, MIDI or MusicXML, with note and beat editing tools and a one-time licence for Windows, Mac and Linux.

AnthemScore is desktop software from Lunaverus that converts recorded audio into notated music. Feed it an MP3 or another audio file and machine learning models detect the notes, percussion, beats and instruments, then lay the result out as a score you can open, print or export. The pitch is aimed at musicians who need a written version of something they can only hear: a riff learned by ear, a live recording, a piece a student wants to study. A browser version also exists for quick jobs on any device, including phones. In practice the automatic pass is treated as a first draft rather than a finished engraving. The editor lets you add or remove notes with a single click, or drag a slider that adds and removes notes by confidence, which is the fastest way to clean up a passage. Beats and measures get their own tools: you can tap downbeats along with playback to set bar lines, change time or key signature and tempo for any measure, insert triplets, add or delete measures and halve or double the beat count. Difficult passages can be slowed down without shifting pitch so you can hear what is actually being played. Output is shaped around the instrument. Choosing an instrument auto-formats the score into a sensible key, range and staff, and tablature is available alongside standard notation. Finished work exports as PDF, MIDI or MusicXML, with ASDT export and batch processing reserved for the higher editions. Everything runs locally on Windows, Mac or Linux, and the desktop licence is a one-time purchase rather than a subscription. Alternatives tend to split into two camps: browser services that charge recurring fees and upload your audio, and notation packages that assume you will enter notes yourself. AnthemScore sits between them, combining detection with a real editing environment, though the quality of the first pass still depends heavily on how clean and simple the source recording is.
