Lilypond why?

Feedback Type: Commentary

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

This program makes minimal use of a GUI. Writing music by coding by the user is a step backwards in ease of use. Save up $70 for Harmony Assistant 9.1x if you need a pain free route to printing your music. I tried compiling 3 of the coded example and 2 had errors in the Web page examples. Just looking at the examples with all the abstract coding leaves me cold.

Try Finale Notepad (also totally free) instead.

Finale Notepad is neither a GUI for LilyPond nor it is an equivalent replacement. Period!
