Any opinions about good music notation software for PCs? I want it to be able to do two main things:
1. I want to be able to write sheet music and have my computer and/or my MIDI keyboard play the music back.
2. I'd also like to be able to play a MIDI sequence into the software, and have it write out the sheet music.
Currently I'm looking at Coda's "Finale" and "Allegro," Cakewalk's "Overture," and Sibelius. I've tried an inexpensive product called Noteworthy Composer, which is nice, but can't handle complex rhythms like quintuplets or septuplets. I don't need lots of bells and whistles, but I do need to be able to write and play complex rhythms.
Thanks for your input!
