I've been asked to help a friend spec out a new computer, from hardware
through configuration. On his wish list is music composition software.
When I've gone looking in the past, I've found a plethora of packages.
But most of them seemed as though they were aimed at people who were
interested in experimenting with sound, and with the computer as a
composition and experimentation tool. My friend is probably more
interested in something more "traditional", with staff notation, maybe a
sequencer, something that will augment his acoustic guitar rather than
turn his computer into an experimental music studio. I believe that
he's also more interested in an interface onto his sound card's
synthesizer than in digital recording and editing.
Years ago when I was into electronic music myself the commercial package
to get was CakeWalk (maybe still for all I know). Does anybody know of
a free work-alike that will run on Linux, or something similar?
Thanks,
