I am just curious as to what the rest of you like to use!
I started out on Noteflight! It was fantastic in so many ways, especially with how affordable it is and how many options and how much control you have over everything! The only thing I hated was how terrible it sounded. The instrument recordings that played your notation just sounded atrocious, and completely unrealistic.
After Noteflight I tried Finale, which had good sound and some good functionality and customizability, however, it just didn't feel right to me for whatever reason.
Nowadays, I use the Microsoft Surface Pro 4 that I bought myself and have been using StaffPad ever since (which, after spending so much money, I low key don't have a choice...). I love a LOT of things about it, but it is definitely a newer program that has a LOT to be worked out, and honestly, there are a lot of disappointments with it as well. It isn't nearly as customizable as Noteflight, but the sound is incredible (except for the choir add-on, which is beyond unfortunate (screams and cries internally).
So what do you use and suggest (maybe even for what budget?)
I'd love to hear!
Thanks!
