There are many music writing programs. The first thing to do when considering which program you need is to figure out what you want to do. Do you want to just write music out and be able to print it or is there something more you want to do with it. You can hook up a midi to your computer and compose right from your keyboard. You can listen to your music and playback with many instruments to choose from.
The great thing about music writing programs is you don't have to be a professional. If music is your hobby, that is great and you can use music writing programs to write a one hit wonder. This can even make you stinking rich in the process. Sounds too great to be true and for many it probably is but it does happen more than you think.
Music writing programs is great for the professional and for those with basic music skills. If you can play an instrument, read and understand music, you can compose. We as musicians are by nature creative and this can be a new trade for you. Create a simple melody and some lyrics and you have composed your first piece.
Do you have a band, group, or some other type of music ensemble?A music writing program isfor you. You can easily print parts for your next rehearsal or gig. The old days of physically writing out anything is gone and the new easy way is here to stay.
I remember a project in college where I had to write a short piece for my college symphony. That was easy but the hard part was writing the parts I needed for the symphony to play. Yes I was up for days copying from the score I made. Don't let that happen to you.
