05 Dec 98 - 06:15 AM (#48084) Subject: music notation software From: mike cahill I am looking for a simple music notation software system (preferably freeware or cheap). The problem is that I don't realy know what I am looking for I have bought several programs in the past and tried the demos of mag cover disks, but they don't do what we want. What I am looking for is a program that will allow me to feed in music either by keyboard or midi keyboard but one that doesn't self correct, put in rests, ect. and will then let me play it back, correct it and save it in midi format.Any ideas? |

It's called Noteworthy and you can find it here, amongst other things. HERE |

05 Dec 98 - 10:34 AM (#48119) Subject: RE: music notation software From: Jack Hickman I recently bought a programme called MusicTime Deluxe from Passport Deluxe. It is a light version of a programme called Encore, and would appear to do all the things you want. It costs about $100.00 Canadian, which is a lot cheaper than the $400.00 asked for the full version of Encore. I haven't checked to see if it is available on the Web. Jack Hickman |

You can do quite a bit with the unregistered version, but a lot more if you pay the registration fee of $40 US. I think Dick and Max are working on getting us a freeware program from a different company, so you may want to wait a bit before paying registration for Noteworthy. |

06 Dec 98 - 01:03 AM (#48223) Subject: RE: music notation software From: Dave T I've used Noteworthy (unregistered only) and it's pretty good. I just donwloaded "TablEdit" from ZDnet today. So far it looks OK. It allows you to mix & match standard notation and tab. I really haven't looked at the documentation yet, so I've just been "winging" it. It's reasonably intuitive but I'll post back once I've had a chance to try it a bit more. It looks like it might be able to export midi text files also. Joe - I assume Dick & Max will post something about the software they're looking into??? Dave T |

06 Dec 98 - 04:15 AM (#48232) Subject: RE: music notation software From: Musicman My vote goes to Noteworthy. I havn't used the midi input function yet, but I have manually enter music and transposed and printed,It will print scores from midi files, and much more. You can even add lyrics easily! It is also very userfriendly, a bonus for any music writing program! I'd say check it out!

06 Dec 98 - 09:34 AM (#48251) Subject: RE: music notation software From: Dave T Thanks Joe. I downloaded the trial version of MusicEase. I'll try it out. Maybe I can kill two or three birds with one stone; I'll try writing the TAB for Robert Johnson's 'Dust My Broom'. That way I can answer that thread and also post it to the Tune Post Contest.
