How to Embed Free, Printable Staff Paper on Your Website

With the advent of technology and the ability to print, the days of going to the music score to buy manuscript paper are now over. However, if you’re like , each time you have tried to find free staff paper to print online, you’ve found yourself completing the following procedure:

  1. Open web browser
  2. Open Google
  3. Search “free printable staff paper”
  4. Click first link
  5. Find out that the paper the site offers doesn’t have enough staves per page
  6. Go back to Google
  7. Click second link
  8. Find out that the paper the site offers doesn’t allow you to change how much space is in between the lines of the staff
  9. Go back to Google

… you get the idea. Well fear not, fellow musician and staff-paper searcher, these days are over! I am extremely excited to share with you StaffNotes, a website that allows you to embed free, printable staff paper on your website, with tons of customizable options, so you can create a resource that fits your exact needs. StaffNotes is by Dan Comerchero (@staffnotes on Twitter), a drummer/producer/designer, and a great colleague in the field of Music Technology. I have embedded an example of the StaffNotes paper below, but I definitely recommend you check out the StaffNotes website to see all the options available. Also be sure to check out the embeddable FretNotes portion of Dan’s site.

Do you like the StaffNotes paper? If so, be sure to give me or Dan a shout-out over Twitter (once again, he’s @staffnotes and I’m @Zweibz7), or visit the StaffNotes website.
