Music Notation Software
Recently I had to switch music notation
software because the product I had be using, iMakeSheet Music 3.0 by
MidiSoft, has gone out of business and the program is no longer made
or supported. But I was encouraged to find a couple of easy to use, and
inexpensive programs that work just fine for what I do.
2. Musette is a
very simple program and it's free! It doesn't do everything, but it will
let you input a song, then transpose it, and print
it. See: www.musettemusic.com
