![]() Which means I can't have some semi accurate playback to manage dissonance well. Dissonance sounds like shit on the program. But the timbre of the strings sounds like they hired a 5th grade class to do the note samples. The devs said that they are technically "Real" sounds. It literally sounds like a default synth in reaper trying to be a certain instrument. ![]() And even the plugins you can install don't have great sounds either. On top of this, you can't compose well with more than 15+ instruments or the program just starts bricking itself into oblivion if you do any macro edits. For example, I can't switch the meter if there are tuplets because they "Can't cross bar lines". It has almost no AI built in to take care of simple issues. Musescore is awful for publishing and rearranging. I'm literally paying for Garritan sounds and samples more than I'm paying for efficient software. The most despicable thing is that the devs want $700 for this shit. Overall it's incredibly inefficient for composing. But it's like those NPC's in video games that you have to micromanage for them to work. On top of all of this, the audio system built into the program is absolute shit and just stops the playback for no apparent reason. Hell even ProTools runs quicker with dozens and dozens of tracks compared to my 10 instrument finale file. It eats up ram like a MF even though it shouldn't. The playback is atrocious no matter how good of sound you have. Every single thing most composers use frequently (Dynamics, Crec, etc) are behind sometimes three separate button clicks to access. It takes 3-4x as long to get your idea down in the software compared to musescore. The three big notation softwares to date are Finale, Musescore, and Sibelius.įinale quite frankly is great for publishing and editing but horrible for notating. I think it is ludicrous how awful of options we as composers have for music notation software.
