<p>Steve, thank you for this. I have used the free trial of Finale, and it does essentially the same as MTDLX. A little more complicated I think, but if MTDLX can't resolve crashing problems, I may well decamp. The beauty of MTDLX is that it is simple to use, and has most of what a banjoist might want, apart from slides that is. MTDLX also has a big Brother in Encore which is quite expensive, whereas MTDLX is relatively inexpensive (still not cheap as chips, but certainly affordable).</p>

<p>Hi Anthony, for the past 12 years I've used Finale Printmuisic, I've used the 2011 edition for all of my arrangements so far but at some time I will upgrade to a more up to date version. PM produces mus files and is reasonably easy to use. If you want to try it, Finale do a 30 day free trial and it may be something you could consider. From my own experiences, I would certainly recommend it.....Steve.<br></br> <cite>Anthony Peabody said:…</cite></p>

<p>I have just listened to your Midi for "Midnight Revels". Well done. I particularly liked your slides which I am unable to reproduce on my program, and I have to use a glissando which is not quite correct of course. I use Music Time de Luxe, and have done for a couple of decades. It is beginning to show it age, and will crash if mistreated, although it has all the features that i need (except of course a nice slide).

<p>You will be pleased to know that I have just transcribed "Moonlight Revels" onto the "Works of Joe Morley" section, and it will appear shortly. A great piece, which is another underplayed work by the master.</p>
