  1. I am fairly new to composition. I have been using muse score for a few years, first when in grad school for a couple projects and recently started using it for studying composition and putting thoughts to page. My issue is the sound fonts that my laptop uses. Horrible midi sounds! I have had people here tell me they can't decipher anything about my music because it is midi. They have asked why I don't use real sounds? Where can I find real sounds? I honestly do not know what I am doing and don't know where to start. Could anyone please help me? I would really appreciate it! Andy
  2. I use Musescore most of the time, actually all of the time. At the time, I don't have a lot of extra money so free is good. The only issue I have is I don't have a good program for posting realistic play backs.
