How to open file with .ENC extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .ENC file? Do you want to convert a .ENC file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

File extension .ENC

Full Name Developer Category
Encore Musical Notation File Format N/A Audio Files
.ENC

ENC (Encore musical notation file format) is a proprietary .ENC format used by Passport Software Encore, to save and load musical compositions composed or arranged using the software. An Encore file is saved as an exact copy of the composition that retains all information which is being stored in the program’s database such as notes, tempo, clef, measure information (including repeats), dynamics, markings, vocals and lyrics, and ensemble settings. This makes ENC files excellent for storing precise musical notation.

Technical Specifications

The standard version of the ENC format is based on the MIDI Standard file format and works with any version of Encore. The program's native file format is more compact than the MIDI standard and uses fewer data structures. Additionally, the ENC file extension supports four levels of software complexity—from standalone applications that allow for basic operations such as printing and playing instruments to full-scale compositional tools that feature additional features such as transposition, score measurements, playback functions, and visual output options.

An ENC file contains MIDI data stored in a proprietary format which allows users to save compositions created with Encore. ENC files are similar to other music notation file types such as .MUSX, .MID, .SF2, .MIDI, .DLS, and .SYX. While MIDI data can be exchanged between different applications, ENC files can only be imported into Encore due to their compatibility with a limited number of music notation software programs.

Trigger Words

ENC files are essential for anyone who wants to accurately store and share a composition created with Encore, ensuring that all data remains intact. All four levels of software complexity are supported by the standard version of the file format which makes it highly versatile and compatible with most music notation programs in the market.

Programs for WINDOWS system
  • ENCORE! ENCORE!

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .ENC) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .ENC extension.

When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.

Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .ENC file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .ENC extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .ENC extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .ENC file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .ENC file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.

In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .ENC file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .ENC file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .ENC file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .ENC file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
