Compose with a stylus

Handwriting music is often faster than clicking notes into notation software, especially for sketches, lessons and transcription. On a tablet, staff paper gives you the speed of handwriting with unlimited pages, copy and paste, and lasso tools for moving bars around.

Getting the size right

Staves with 2.2 mm between lines match standard manuscript paper at the page size. On screen you will usually zoom in, so choose the larger staves variation if you prefer to see a whole page while writing. Six-line guitar tab and other layouts are available in the generator.

For teachers

Prepare exercises on staff pages before a lesson, write on them live during a video call, and export the annotated pages as PDFs for students. The music paper guide explains staff sizes and layouts, and large staff paper suits young beginners.
