Subject: Free music notation editing software that doesn't suck...?

Written By: ChrisBodilyTM on 05/17/08 at 6:24 pm

After my trial version of Guitar Pro 5 expired after 15 days (which sucks  ;D), I decided I wanted to find a 100% free no-strings-attached equivalent of it or something like it. So far, no luck. Every program I've downloaded sucks, with the exception of Power Tab, but it will only allow me to use three instruments per section. Other programs were inaccessible to me because they were in some weird file extension that Windows couldn't open. I have pretty much given up, so that's why this question had to be asked.

Can anybody recommend me any GP5-quality (or better) free software that is easily accessible and Doesn't end in a weird and.or foreign file extension? If not, is anybody willing to create one, no strings attached?  ;)

Thank you to anyone who can help.  :)

Anybody?  :-\\ Most of the major ones I tried suck... badly, and I haven't had luck finding any others, let alone good ones.

Have no idea if any of these are quite what you are looking for but I saw them mentioned in a discussion about frequency analysis of music on another forum I belong to (www.sciencefile.org)
