Okay, if no one uses Sibelius what programs are you guys finding useful for arranging and printing music?

Thanks,

Check out Finale from Coda, http://www.codamusic.com/coda/

They specialize in music notation software, and they have a free version Finale Notepad with a reduced feature set. So you can try before you buy.

It also depends on your application. Are you starting with a blank page and placing notes on the staff? Or are you creating midi files, that you want notation for?

If you are doing midi files, be aware that the apps have to analyze the performance. Depending on the sequencer resolution setting, and quantize settings, the results may vary using the same data. You may have to do some editing to make the notation accurate.

I prefer DP3's notation over Cubase, seemed more accurate to me.
