NoteEdit

NoteEdit is a defunct music scorewriter for Linux and other Unix-like computer operating systems. Its official successor is Canorus.Canorus - a music score editor Accessed 21 January 2020.

NoteEdit is written in C++, uses the Qt3 toolkit, and is integrated with KDE. Released under the GPL-2.0-or-later license, NoteEdit is free software.

Features NoteEdit, unlike some Linux-based music editors, features a graphical user interface. NoteEdit's design has been praised by ITworld,The Sweet Sound of Linux Accessed 9 May 2008. and Linux Journal praised both the interface and the relatively wide range of features and applications of the program.LilyPond Helper Applications: Development Status Accessed 9 May 2008.

It supports an unlimited number and length of staves, polyphony, MIDI playback of written notes, chord markings, lyrics, and a number of import and export filters to many formats like MIDI, MusicXML, abc, MUP, PMX, MusiXTeX and LilyPond.

Linux Magazine recommends using NoteEdit with FluidSynth, a software synthesizer, to expand NoteEdit's abilities. FluidSynth uses SoundFont technology (a sample-based synthesis) to simulate the sound of a NoteEdit score played by live instruments.

Authors NoteEdit was maintained by Jörg Anders for a long time. Since August 2004, a new development team was formed. Now there are quite a few people behind this software project:

Reinhard Katzmann, project manager Christian Fasshauer, programmer Erik Sigra, developer David Faure, KDE User Interface Matt Gerassimoff Leon Vinken, MusicXML Georg Rudolph, LilyPond interface Matevž Jekovec, developer and composer Karai Csaba, developer

In Autumn 2006 the development team decided to rewrite as score editor in Qt4 from scratch (now known as Canorus). Version 0.1.0 to 0.7.2 released under GPL-2.0-only, and since version 0.7.3 under GPL-3.0-only.
