MuseScore Description

You can input MIDI in real-time or step-time, and there is a built-in virtual keyboard. You can also type or click the mouse to enter the notes. Transpose selected passages to any key or interval, or even diatonically within the key. There are many tab styles available, including tabs with note symbols outside of the staff and tabs with upside-down strings. MuseScore now supports Guitar Pro files, so you can easily import them into MuseScore. Every release brings improvements to import filters. Any changes you make to any part of the score are immediately reflected in its full score. Instantly switch between transposed or concert pitch. The sound pitch remains the same, even though the written notes are changed. Keep your eyes on the content and not distracted by page breaks or line breaks. To polish for printing, switch to Page View.

Denemo Reviews
Denemo
Denemo is a free music program for GNU/Linux and Mac OSX. It allows you to quickly enter notation, which it then typesets using LilyPond's music engraver. Music can be inputted via the PC-Keyboard or played in using a MIDI controller. LilyPond is Denemo's preferred software for creating beautiful sheet music that meets the highest publishing standards. Denemo makes input easy by displaying the staffs in a clear format so that you can easily enter and edit the music. The typesetting takes place in the background, so you can work while it is happening. It is generally of flawless publication quality. If necessary, you can make some final adjustments to the typeset score using the mouse. This is a significant improvement on the other programs that require you to reposition colliding notation as you enter the music. Compare with Finale, Musescore and Sibelius.

MagicScore Notation Reviews
MagicScore Notation
MagicScore Notation 8 for MS Word 8 combines all the power and features that MagicScore Notation software has with the ease of being able dynamically place music notation in any MS Word document with just one mouse click. Most music notation programs require that the user insert an image of the score in order to place it into a word processor document. It is impossible to change the notes once they are there without deleting them and starting again. MagicScore Notation in Microsoft Word solves this problem by allowing users to edit page notes by simply clicking on them within the word processor. Our software eliminates the need to copy and paste image files. To add music notation to a MS Word file, all the user needs to do is to place a MagicScore Notation add-in in the document using either the Insert->Object menu or the toolbar button.

MC Musiceditor Reviews
MC Musiceditor
MC Musiceditor music notation software is free/open-source (GPLv2 and above). Both MCMusiceditor-Lite and MCMusiceditor full versions are available for Windows (XP or higher). MCMusiceditor Lite also runs well on Linux (under Wine). Reinier Maliepaard is a psychologist, software engineer, musician, and teacher at ArtEZ Conservatorium Netherlands (music history and music theory). Why? To make it easier for musicians to create scores. The editor is user-friendly and can create professional scores without any musical knowledge. MC Musiceditor makes it easy to create, refine, hear, and print professional scores. MC Musiceditor also allows you to share and exchange musical notation data with WYSIWYG music editors like Finale, MuseScore, and Sibelius. (To name just the most popular programs among my students).
