I was referring to the one that I wrote. If the other one's there, we got that too.

So there. :P

Roger -Dot- Lee, how's THAT for a non-answer!

don't you just love the confusion that can be generated within a forum?

@ no dot- i committed that fox pass too!
...good catch!

speaking of sibelius, have you looked into institutional
discounts? some companies will write off software to
qualified music instructors.

@dot- i'll keep you in mind if i find a suitable
notation program. occasionally there's some good
free/shareware.

i have an advantage, w/ both a hard disk recorder
(rol. 1680) and a sequencer in the chain.
i'm using a save disabled demo of celemony's melodyne,
a program that allows drag and drop harmonies,
quantization of audio files like midi (msrp $600).
i record the output into the 1680, route the outs back to
the mixer, record the results in sonar 4.

i believe apple garageband, ($49! )
if you have the OS for it, would be able to capture the
sibelius demo's output, sooo... whatever you can do in a day,
or until the next shutdown could be saved.
i just had a look, the program includes input/playback of
notation. this thing's a miracle for the $$.
support for acid loops, midi, the new jampack 4 orchestral...

you have Melodyne? way cool....

yeah, Garageband is really starting to hum. I haven't used the latest version yet, so I'm not sure what the notation is like, but it's really getting there as a program.

Indeed: I've got Garageband myself. However, I have no idea how to get it to work, so I'm very much still at the futzing and puttering stage. If I can use a demo version of Sibelius to get notation to Garageband, I'll be in good shape (and might actually get that brass choir dealie in a listenable state eventually! )

Roger -Dot- Lee, too many toys, not enough money.
