Noteworthy Composer File Conversion

• Dec 19, 2017 - 20:42

Hi
I have a score in an old version of Noteworthy Composer, so its an nwc file not an nwctxt file. I would really like to get this into a musescore readable file so I can work on it as I do not have Noteworthy Composer (other than the demo version which will not save anything, and the viewer). It currently runs to over 1200 bars with 8 or 9 staves so would be very hard to cut up into pages to try and convert via individual page pdfs. Can anyone help? Does anyone have a copy of Noteworthy Composer and could carry out the file conversion for me, or know of a converter that will do nwc to musescore or musicxml files? Thanks
John

What version of Noteworthy do you have?

Shoichi's link states:
The converter now supports NWC files as well, if they have been created with Noteworthy Composer 2.75.

Regards.

Oh, there you go, found it. It was Lasconic who helped me. Here is the relevent bit of his message. The tulltaab file is the one I wanted to convert. Hope this helps.

"Anyway I downloaded https://nwc-scriptorium.org/db/rock/tulltaab.html, converted it in NWCTXT and run nwc2musicxml on it. It's a huge file so it doesn't work on the webservice https://nwc2musicxml.appspot.com/, so I ran it locally.
I got a MusicXML file back and opened it in MuseScore and save as MSCZ. Find the result attached. I hope it will be useful !
It's huge so I would advice to create a new score in MuseScore with the set of instruments you want and copy paste from the converted file."
