The preparator is the person who prepares score materials in ChorusPlay, in order to share them with other ensemble members, for example, or use them himself. The preparator can be a musician colleague, your instructor or yourself. The ChorusPoint team can also take your score(s) preparation in charge, just ask!
Several steps, optional or not, are available to start from a simple paper music sheet and finally have a real digital material to work easily and in a playful way.

Preparation steps
- Scan and import the score in ChorusPlay (see this article and/or this video, in French)
- Adjust the score layout (rotation and margins cropping, see this article and/or this video, in French)
- “Map” the score (“trace” the score bars, see this article and/or this video, in French)
- Associate one or several mp3 files with the score(s) (see this video, in French). The preparator can also record himself voices in ChorusPlay (see this article and/or this video, in French).
- If needed, synchronize voices between them (see this article)
- Create the sequencing (see this article and/or this video, in French)
- Finally, when all is ready, the preparator can share score supports to other group members (see this article).
