Re: Sheet Music Processor ?

[BPeskin <bpeskin...>]

Mark:

Many professional musicians use a program by Coda Music Software called
"Finale."  It's extremely complex, but covers every option one needs in
writing music.  For writing out simple lead sheets, it may ne too
complicated.  I think Coda makes a simpler version called "Allegro."

As a conductor and arranger, I use Finale, but it took me most of a summer
to get familiar with it, and I still feel as if I'm learning it.  The
program is also expensive ($300 to $700), but well worth the price if
that's what you do for a living.  The results look like published music.

Hope this helps.
