Wow, I'm thoroughly impressed. Now, how often am I gonna use this--almost never again. But the variety of tones, the GUI is advanced, and the nostalgia for looking for a software like this is intense! I'm trying to remember the free music notation/composition program I used growing up--was it Finale? now it's bothering me--but I made several songs that way. I think it was Finale because I could only create songs as recordings for so long. Either way, this has all the features I would have wished for in the 90s, let alone the mid-80s; executes is surprisingly well; and makes it as user-friendly as possible for the era. Very impressive. I mean, just to show you, this is the original Apple II version, tho I did peek at the [also-made-by-Will] Apple IIgs version which was soooo advanced and gave me that classic Mac nostalgia like when I played Enchanted Sceptres.
