Worth it to upgrade my scanning software?

I've been using scanscore as a sheet music scanner for a few months now, and I love it. I scan in my music, then export to Finale. They've released a new version (https://scan-score.com/en/2019/11/21/sc ... available/) and I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on if its worth it to upgrade. It says it recognizes chord names and lyrics now, which sounds great. Also can transpose in the app. Let me know your thoughts!

If you’re happy with it as it is, then the new version will probably be better. I can’t speak directly about it, though, because I use SmartScore.

i use Smartscore X2 Pro which already does what the upgrade you are considering. Perhaps a change in software is a better idea.

The OP has posted this identical post (changing the name of the app he imports into) on a number of other forums, as he also did when he 'discovered' the software earlier this year.

Ugh.

Hasn't been back since posting the above, so not looking for advice. So, ScanScore spam. Wasting our time.

So it’s catching up to SmartScore Pro from 2012. Wow ... i guess.

What’s next — racing stripes and tail fins?

Since both of the previous posts (not including you, EB!) are referencing a 4 year old post, I think they need to go away...
