I was working on a market research program about 9 months ago which
included musical scoring programs. Here's what I saw:
The really high-end guys seem to use either Finale or Sibelius. Both are
excellent programs, have both Mac and Win support, all kinds of flexibility
-- and cost a bundle ($500-600US SRP). I've played with the demos of each,
and personally, I like Sibelius.
Cakewalk has a relatively new one called 'Overture 2' which I have never
used, but on the whole I like Cakewalk products. It's also Mac and Win.
And finally, MOTU has Mosaic, which is Mac-only.
Everything else -- other than Cubase VST Score -- seemed to be in the "toy"
category.
