NoteWorthy Composer 1.30f, Notation Processor for Windows
A Shareware music composition and notation processor for Windows,
providing for the creation, play back, and printing of your own
musical scores. You can:
- Print your whole score (for a conductor's view), or just
the staves you select, in several font sizes
- Import and export standard MIDI files
- Use the computer keyboard or mouse for notation editing
- Selectively add or remove accents, slurs, staccato, beams,
triplets, and accidentals through tool bar buttons
- Multi-level Undo/Redo feature makes music experimentation
safe and easy during the composing process
- Use the included tools to automatically transpose, beam, and
arrange accidentals in your score staves to make them look
professional
- Create up to eight lyric lines per staff
- Add various performance expressions, such as crescendos,
fermatas, breath marks, and accelerandos that are recognized
and peformed during play back.
You'll be composing, arranging, and printing in no time!
