@softgoat I'll probably end up going with MuseScore for composition and OpenMPT/DefleMask/FamiTracker (according to purpose) for style and final touches.
Well... if I ever make any music. I'm not really a music writer. (God, the stuff that people get the most credit for I can't do!) I was a clarinet player, a long time ago, from 6th grade to high school graduation.
