SCORE has 1/4-step and 3/4-step accidentals available as well as
parenthetical versions of them.  They are available both as a
Parameter 5 selection for Code 1 items and by themselves as Code 9
items.  I do not think they are yet available as 'musica ficta'
accidentals (above the note head) as Parameter 11 selections for
Code 1 items, but as Code 9 items can be scaled and placed in that
position and achieve the same results.

SCORE is also powerful enough to handle graphic notation of the
tape portion of your score.

It only works on IBM-PC/AT or clone (286 or better) but does not
require Windows as Finale for PC does.  It is expensive, more so
than Finale alone, but much less than Finale + Windows + additional
hardware you may need.  The learning curve is long, but not
longer than Finale.
