History

SmartScore was originally released in 1991 as MIDISCAN for Windows. The product line was changed to "SmartScore" and re-released for Windows 98 in 1998, and for Mac Power PCs in 1999 as a scanning/scoring hybrid product. SmartScore incorporates proprietary music recognition technology (OCR) researched and developed by Musitek Corporation of Ojai, California and its engineering staff in Warsaw, Poland. SmartScore currently runs on Windows 7, Windows Vista & Windows XP PC platforms as well as the Mac OS X operating system.
