: B&P question: Is there a way to enter the notes in B&P using a staff and 
: your computer keyboard, like finale on the mac?

Well, I haven't used Finale, but yes, B&P has a tool "Spare Keys", which 
allows the keyboard to be used to enter music realtime. Unfortunately, 
some of the keystrokes are also shortcuts, so the "v" key causes the 
"visual" metronome to start (!), and so on...... 
The track window will display staff notation, if chosen from the menu. It 
is not professional quality though - tied eighth notes instead of quarter 
notes, etc. The timing is very accurate, however (it seems to me).

best, Martin
