Entering music Igor Engraver represents a major breakthrough in how music is entered into a score. There is never any need to make multiple passes over the music, all musical elements are entered simultaneously: pitches, articulation, dynamics, lyrics, slurs, ties... even hairpins. This feature alone will save you countless hours, increase the correctnesss of your scores enormously, and it will also allow you to work more creatively, just as you would with pencil and paper.

For instance, when you start a hairpin crescendo, it will expand and lengthen as you enter more notes or chords until you decide the hairpin is finished. If you then place a dynamic marking on top of the hairpin, it will subdivide and adjust according to the surrounding dynamics. Entering music in Igor Engraver is very intuitive. If you know how to use a word processor, you'll be making music with Igor Engraver in a matter of minutes. Naturally, Igor Engraver also imports and exports MIDI files.
