Music-X 1.1 will not print scores (but an addon module which will, has been promised for some time). Dr T KCS will not print scores, but there is Dr T program (Copyist?) which will. I have not seen it. DMCS uses traditional musical notation and will print scores (it takes a long time!) Music-X and Dr T are really midi sequencers. I think DMCS will do what you want. It is old, not supported by Electronic Arts any more, and is very dodgy under OS2 on an A3000. Better than nothing perhaps.. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Mike Lewis. cbmuk!cbmuka!lewism!lewism | | 40 Heyes Lane, Alderley Edge, Cheshire SK9 7JY, (UK) 0625 582762 | +-------------------------------------------------------------------+
