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 have used ENCORE, FINALE and now SIBELIUS. For someone new to notation software, I would say that SIBELIUS is currently the best way to go for ease of use and very nice looking output, plus it has the best MIDI implementation of any notation program and it works in Mac OS X. Less powerful than FINALE, but more automated and generally faster.
