Tour 3: Notation
Rosegarden includes a powerful notation editor – essential if score is your preferred way to compose, or just to give you a different view on your work.
You can edit notation at the same time as any of the other standard editing windows, and Rosegarden unobtrusively keeps everything up-to-date for you.
Unlike other MIDI sequencers, Rosegarden really knows about notation, storing details of the musical structure and presentation far in excess of what can be described in MIDI. And Rosegarden can even tidy up recorded notation using a powerful heuristic notation quantizer, without losing the original performance timings.
You can prepare printed scores, editing and previewing in a clear multi-page layout...
... and then print directly, using LilyPond to generate high-quality typeset output:
