Any music software?

[sim085]

Hi,

I was wondering if there was/is any music software package? I am not sure but I do remember my brother had some software where notes where selected from a menu and then played. Did such software exist for the Amiga?

Regards,

I am not a musician and therefore have no experience of such software. My girl friend is a musician and would like to give her a surprise and show her that my A500+ can do things related to her work as well. I know Amiga was used a lot for multimedia in the past but I do not know the names of such packages nor do I know if they are still available.

If you look for something with real notation, good old Aegis Sonix comes to mind.

What do you mean by real notation?

What I am looking for is something like Sibelius ... obviously I know it might not be up to such a standard!

It seems Aegis Sonix does have real notation (I now understand what this means). Do the others come with real notation support as well? OctaMED, Bars & Pipes, SuperJam, and Delux Music?

btw - just out of curiosity; do you people still use such software? I am here just for the Amiga fun, but I am really interested to know if anyone still uses these machines for work!
