I'd suggest you look into www.LilyPond.org. It's a text based system which will work on any platform.
Expect a learning curve and you'll still want and need sighted help. It's open source or G N U, which you'll learn as you delve into it.

Hey all! A question for those others of you out there who write/arrange music, and who, therefore, find yourselves having to score stuff for sighted musicians to read. What software do you use? Is there anything out there that’s not horrendously expensive, relatively easy for those of us who are musicians far more than tech-beaks to use, and, of course, reasonably VO friendly? :-( I tried Logic Pro, but it ended up being none of the above! And Garage-Band only lets you print out individual tracks, not an entire score/arrangement as far as I know. So it doesn’t help either! Finale’s been suggested to me, but I don’t know about the accessibility as the person who suggested it is sighted. So any suggestions from other VO users? I’d be most grateful, as I’m hoping to do some arranging for my choir for our June concert! Ok, thanks, Sarah = Sarah Amelia McLauchlan: composer and arranger, blogger, and, most of all, the voice of the Radical Dark Dreamers! http://sarahameliamclauchlan.wordpress.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
