Program Name ------------ MusicEase v4.03 Category -------- Music, Music Tools Suggested Distribution Filename: -------------------------------- ME403.ZIP (or other valid archive format, such as ARC, ARJ, LZH, etc). MUSIC.ZIP on CompuServe/ZiffNet. Descriptions: ------------- Short: MUSICEASE v4.03 - Music Score Editor, with printing capabilities, and output for MIDI. Long: MUSICEASE v4.03 - a music score editor that lets you create, edit, print and play music notation. MusicEase provides a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) screen-oriented editor that lets you see on your computer screen the musical score exactly as your printer will print it out. In particular, MusicEase is a constraint-based system with a large amount of knowledge of music notation. This allows it to handle intelligently many of the details of scoring automatically. For instance, bar lines are inserted automatically according to the meter. If you change the meter, the bar line placements change automatically. (Of course you can insert barlines yourself wherever you like also.) The result is that you can create professional looking scores easily and quickly. You can enter notes using the computer keyboard or you can enter notes by playing them on a MIDI instrument. You can also create pieces using other music software such as a sequencer and, if they have a MIDI file capability, these pieces can be loaded directly into MusicEase. MusicEase also allows you to transpose, invert and retrograde sections or entire pieces.
