I'm an amateur musician/arranger longer on theory than equipment, and so far I've been using an entry level music notation and scoring progam called MusicTime. I now have a Midi keyboard and want to connect up to the G4 so that I don't have to manually click in every friggin note and chord.
So far I haven't been able to get the Yamaha UX16 to connect with my program through the USB port (although OMS does see the translator box the keyboard is isolated from both send and receive) and the demo for Finale doesn't either. does anyone know a good entry level program that is USB aware, for notation/arrangement/scoring? At my level, performance is a bit over my needs. (I usually export midi to Quicktime for playback once I have an arrangement.) I appreciate any advice, and my price comfort level is probably US$ 300 or so. Thanks George |

I've peeked at Finale but I'll also check out Sibelius. So far I've used an entry level progrm called MusicTime, which plays back in Quicktime and is pretty good for printing.
However, I've had no joy trying to use an USB-Midi connection with it. (Maybe an OMS issue since the Finale demo won't do it either. I'd love to here from a Finale user with USB midi how they have things set up.) Unless I can get USB to actually reach the instrument, I guess I'll havw to keep on point-and-clicking in my notes, or else get a serial Midi interface. Thanks to all for your advice |
