Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for writing music!
Review: I used this program in an online music composition course and it was great. It's easy to figure out by yourself, it prints out sheet music, converts to MIDI, and everything else! It's a must for any budding composer!

Summary: A good starter
Review: Very easy to figure out and use, the tools are basic but well chosen. It is showing its age and price range in a few places; only 32 tracks supported, audio not supported, quantize is either full or none (no percent quantize or beat quantization). The biggest reason I continue using it is because the "piano roll" display mode is capable of showing all tracks on the same representational keyboard. Wonderful for figuring out those interlocking horn parts. The biggest flaw (for me) is a poorly thought out and even more poorly documented patch naming system that forces me to go through screen after screen of unintuative choices if I change so much as one MIDI channel assignment on one piece in a session that week. I'd give it four stars, but the lack of audio makes it a poor contender in today's market.
