Page Turning Solution

Post by seelegeist »

I'm working on a guitar duet and am looking for ideas or solutions to generating a continuously scrolling score (Star Wars intro style) that specifically displays music on subsequent pages before it arrives in the performance. The score is too fast and has too many pages for page turns either electronically or physically by a page turner to be effective.

I've been able to make scores by screen recording myself manually scrolling the score along the midi version, but this is a bit jittery and inconsistent. Most of the pages have the exact same numbers of bars, but the tempo changes quite frequently so automating a continuous scroll doesn't work either. I attempted to get ChatGPT to generate the scores for me, but it wasn't able to do it correctly. Any ideas or suggestions would be immensely appreciated!

I think you don't need pages, but continuously scrolling webpage/video. Such is the scroll view in Finale or MuseScore.

I've tried that in Sibelius, but unfortunately it still jumps suddenly when the cursor reaches the edge of the page, which makes it difficult to read. It seems to also be a problem in MuseScore and I assume it's the same in finale (which I don't have), but yes the idea would be to have a video.

What is the use of that? For what purpose?
