When I’m composing, I don’t want to have to deal with anything more
technologically advanced than a pencil sharpener. If I used music
software for composing I’d want instant playback, maybe MIDI-based?
As far as transcribing, I adapted my own version of Finale’s Speedy
Note Entry for note input, so there are rarely problems there. I’m
more fluent reading \relative, so I guess I consider the occasional
octave/duration issue while making small edits the price of being able
to read more fluently.
