♯♮
In modern Western music notation, a natural (â™®) is a musical symbol that cancels a previous sharp or flat on a note in the written music. The natural indicates that the note is at its unaltered pitch. The natural symbol can be used as an accidental to cancel sharps or flats on an individual note. It may also be shown in a key signature to indicate that sharps or flats in a previous key signature are cancelled. A note is referred to as 'natural' when the letter-name note (A, B, C, D, E, F, or G) is not modified by a flat or sharp (either from a key signature or an accidental). These notes correspond to the white keys on the keyboard of a piano. A key signature with no sharps or flats generally indicates A minor or C major, using all natural notes with no sharps or flats. The natural sign is derived from a square ''b'' used to denote B in medieval music (in contrast with the round ''b'' denoting B, which became the flat symbol). Usage Like all accidental markings, the na ...

Sharp (music)
In music, sharp – eqv. (from French) or (from Greek ) – means higher in pitch. The sharp symbol, ♯, indicates that the note to which the symbol is applied is played one semitone higher. The opposite of sharp is flat, indicating a lowering of pitch. The symbol derives from a square form of the letter ''b''. Examples The sharp symbol is used in key signatures or as an accidental applied to a single note. Below is a staff with a key signature containing three sharps ( A major or F♯ minor) and a sharp symbol placed on the note, indicating that it is an A♯ instead of an A♮. : In twelve-tone equal temperament tuning (the predominant system of tuning in Western music), raising a note's pitch by a semitone results in a note that is enharmonically equivalent to another named note. For example, E♯ and F would be equivalent. This is not the case in most non-standard tuning systems. Variants A double sharp is indicated by the symbol and raises a note ...

Double Sharp
In music, sharp – eqv. (from French) or (from Greek ) – means higher in pitch. The sharp symbol, ♯, indicates that the note to which the symbol is applied is played one semitone higher.

Music Notation
Musical notation is any system used to visually represent music. Systems of notation generally represent the elements of a piece of music that are considered important for its performance in the context of a given musical tradition. The process of interpreting musical notation is often referred to as reading music. Distinct methods of notation have been invented throughout history by various cultures. Much information about ancient music notation is fragmentary. Even in the same time frames, different styles of music and different cultures use different music notation methods. For example, classical music, classical performers most often use sheet music using staff (music), staves, time signatures, key signatures, and noteheads for writing and deciphering Musical composition, pieces. But even so, there are far more systems just that, for instance in professional country music, the Nashville Number System is the main method, and for string instruments such as guitar, it is quit ...

Key Signature
In Western musical notation, a key signature is a set of sharp (), flat (), or rarely, natural () symbols placed on the staff at the beginning of a section of music. The initial key signature in a piece is placed immediately after the clef at the beginning of the first line. If the piece contains a section in a different key, the new key signature is placed at the beginning of that section. In a key signature, a sharp or flat symbol on a line or space of the staff indicates that the note represented by that line or space is to be played a semitone higher (sharp) or lower (flat) than it would otherwise be played. This applies through the rest of the piece or until another key signature appears. Each symbol applies to comparable notes in all octaves—for example, a flat on the fourth space of the treble staff (as in the diagram) indicates that all notes notated as Es are played as E-flats, including those on the bottom line of the staff.

Unicode
Unicode or ''The Unicode Standard'' or TUS is a character encoding standard maintained by the Unicode Consortium designed to support the use of text in all of the world's writing systems that can be digitized. Version 16.0 defines 154,998 Character (computing), characters and 168 script (Unicode), scripts used in various ordinary, literary, academic, and technical contexts. Unicode has largely supplanted the previous environment of a myriad of incompatible character sets used within different locales and on different computer architectures. The entire repertoire of these sets, plus many additional characters, were merged into the single Unicode set. Unicode is used to encode the vast majority of text on the Internet, including most web pages, and relevant Unicode support has become a common consideration in contemporary software development. Unicode is ultimately capable of encoding more than 1.1 million characters. The Unicode character repertoire is synchronized with Univers ...

G-sharp Major
G-sharp major is a musical key based on G, consisting of the pitches G, A, B, C, D, E, and F. Its key signature has eight sharps, requiring one double sharp and six single sharps. Because the same pitches can be indicated by the enharmonically equivalent key of A-flat major (with four flats), a G-sharp major key signature is extremely rare. Its relative minor is E-sharp minor, which would be replaced by F minor. Its parallel minor is G-sharp minor. The G-sharp major scale is: Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The G-sharp harmonic major and melodic major scales are: Although the enharmonic key of A-flat major is preferred because it has only four flats, compared with G-sharp major's eight sharps (including the F), G-sharp major appears as a secondary key area in several works in sharp keys, most notably in the Prelude and Fugue in C-sharp major from Johann Sebastian Bach's ''The Well-T ...

Software Bug
A software bug is a design defect ( bug) in computer software. A computer program with many or serious bugs may be described as ''buggy''. The effects of a software bug range from minor (such as a misspelled word in the user interface) to severe (such as frequent crashing). In 2002, a study commissioned by the US Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology concluded that "software bugs, or errors, are so prevalent and so detrimental that they cost the US economy an estimated $59 billion annually, or about 0.6 percent of the gross domestic product". Since the 1950s, some computer systems have been designed to detect or auto-correct various software errors during operations. History Terminology ''Mistake metamorphism'' (from Greek ''meta'' = "change", ''morph'' = "form") refers to the evolution of a defect in the final stage of software deployment. Transformation of a ''mistake'' committed by an analyst in the early stages of the softw ...

MuseScore
MuseScore Studio (branded as MuseScore before 2024) is a Free and open-source software, free and open-source music notation program for Microsoft Windows, Windows, macOS, and Linux under the Muse Group, which owns the associated online score-sharing platform MuseScore.com and a freemium mobile score viewer and playback app. History MuseScore was created as a Fork (software development), fork of the MusE sequencer's codebase. In 2002, Werner Schweer, one of the MusE developers, decided to remove notation support from MusE and create a stand-alone notation program from the codebase. The MuseScore.org website was created in 2008, and quickly showed a rapidly rising number of MuseScore downloads. By December 2008, the download rate had reached 15,000 per month. Version 0.9.5 was released in August 2009. By October 2009, MuseScore was being downloaded more than 1000 times per day. By the fourth quarter of 2010, it was being downloaded 80,000 times per month. At the end of 2013, ...

G-flat Major
G-flat major is a major scale based on G♭ (musical note), G, consisting of the pitches G, A♭ (musical note), A, B♭ (musical note), B, C♭ (musical note), C, D♭ (musical note), D, E♭ (musical note), E, and F (musical note), F. Its key signature has six Flat (music), flats. Its relative key, relative minor is E-flat minor (or enharmonically D-sharp minor). Its parallel key, parallel minor, G-flat minor, is usually replaced by F-sharp minor, since G-flat minor's two Double-flat, double-flats make it generally impractical to use. Its direct enharmonic equivalent, F-sharp major, contains six sharps. The G-flat major scale is: Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The G-flat Harmonic major scale, harmonic major and Melodic major scale, melodic major scales are: Scale degree chords The scale degree chords of G-flat major are: * Tonic (music), Tonic – G-flat major * Supertonic – A-flat minor * M ...

F-flat Major
F-flat major (or the key of F-flat) is a key based on F, consisting of the pitches F, G, A, B, C, D, and E. Its key signature has eight flats, requiring one double flat and six single flats. Because F-flat major requires eight flats, including a B, it is almost always notated as its enharmonic equivalent of E major, with four sharps. The same is true of the relative minor of D-flat minor, usually replaced by C-sharp minor. F-flat minor, the parallel minor, would be replaced by E minor, since F-flat minor requires four double-flats. The F-flat major scale is: Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The F-flat harmonic major and melodic major scales are: The scale-degree chords of F-flat major are: * Tonic – F-flat major * Supertonic – G-flat minor * Mediant – A-flat minor * Subdominant – B-double-flat major * Dominant – C-flat major * Submediant – D-flat minor * Leading-tone � ...

A-flat Major
A-flat major is a major scale based on Aâ™­ (musical note), A, with the pitches A, Bâ™­ (musical note), B, C (musical note), C, Dâ™­ (musical note), D, Eâ™­ (musical note), E, F (musical note), F, and G (musical note), G. Its key signature has four Flat (music), flats. The A-flat major scale is: Changes needed for the melodic and harmonic versions of the scale are written in with accidentals as necessary. The A-flat Harmonic major scale, harmonic major and Melodic major scale, melodic major scales are Its relative key, relative minor is F minor. Its parallel key, parallel minor, A-flat minor, is usually written instead as the enharmonic key of G-sharp minor, since A-flat minor, which contains seven flats, is not normally used. Its enharmonic, G-sharp major, with eight Sharp (music), sharps, including the F, has a similar problem, and so A-flat major is often used as the parallel major for G-sharp minor. (The same enharmonic situation also occurs with the keys of D-flat major ...
