    I have used Notion notation on my iPad for years, but they don't have anything for my Mac, so for my simple goals, I decided to give this a try. All I'm doing is entering music to make an MP3 to use as accompaniment for my early childhood students. This works pretty easily, in that it's point and click to enter notation. However, there doesn't appear to be a way to sustain a longer note under moving, shorter notes. Also, the play back separates chords as if they're glissando. I can't stand it.

    I used this program while taking my Music Theory Course at Southeastern Louisiana University. It helped me get a 98 on my final project. I just told my teacher about it.

    I’m a working composer who is just getting into writing music on a mac - new software and older hardware (older but still useable). I’ve been working with Crescendo Music Notation Editor for the past two weeks and have found it useful overall. While the application isn’t able to do some of the musical notation I want, overall Crescendo is good and helps me stay organized. I’m hopeful that when I get the full version, I will be able to use the application to it’s fullest capabilities. I found that this version of Crescendo was easy to install - I donwloaded the file and the application installed quickly and easily. There were a couple of problems I encountered but they were easy to figure out workarounds. Because I’m very familiar with music theory, musical scores, music notation and how to compose, using Crescendo was very easy to get started. However, if you don’t know how to write music, Crescendo may be overwhelming. It isn’t an application to “teach” music, it is an application to “write” music. You must have a background in music to make the most of Crescendo.

    If you don't want to spend the $200 for Logic Pro and only need to transcribe, use this. However, it isn't that user friendly.
