The End of Finale - Readit News

I've been a happy user of MuseScore, music notation software which has a gui, is cross platform, and is open source software: https://musescore.org/en

I gladly recommend it to others.

A Tex like approach is available via Lilypond, though I have not tried it so I have no experience to share.

Ugh. I really wanted to like it, but using it is painful. Editing is bafflingly cumbersome, and in many cases impossible.

And don't dare to take issue with any part of it in their forum, or you'll be banned forthwith. Absolute dicks.

Man, I remember using Finale to write music back in the 90s. I thought it was so amazing that i could write something that would be played back to me.
