As a hobby, my wife is a music artist and she works as an accompanist for a voice teacher. She has a nice 88-key keyboard and she records using Garage Band and the (garbage of a...) mic built into her MacBook Pro.
I'm thinking about buying her a
new mic (
and accessories)
However, she doesn't like Garage Band because the notation is so limited. So I started looking at software for editing. I'm looking for something with powerful notation editing (record from midi device, edit/fine tune with mouse, print sheet music that looks good), and the ability to do some basic voice tuning. I know that good software is expensive, I'm looking at eventually spending $100-$500 (depending on how much it is, I'm not going to buy it now, but I want to be looking so I can get a good feel of the market).
Anyone have any recommendations? It would be preferred if it worked on a Mac, but Windows is fine. And again: great notation and at least some basic/useful voice tuning.
(As a note: I know about audacity and I have personally used it. It doesn't do notation, so you don't need to mention it unless you know where I can find a good notation plugin for it
)
