Any suggestions for music notation software, or tips on how to notate and print exercises and such that don't necessarily conform to a time or key signature. Perhaps someone who gives lessons or has written a book might know what I'm after. I have Muse Score and Easy Beat on my computer, but I don't see how I can input seven notes with solid heads but no stems, representing in this case a blues scale in D, or a series of patterns or licks. I know it must exist because I'm copying from a magazine (for my own use exclusively) and they must set it up somehow. To a large extent it's just me being OCD, but that's just who I am. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

I was wondering about a non music program like print artist or excel ?? creating staff ,notation & diagrams in that way , but i'm fairly computer illiterate & know nothing of these programs . I'll be interested in answers you get as well

I had been checking any major notation software 2 years ago. Finally, I went for Forte. It's comparably cheap, easy to use, and had the by far best working midi import export. It also comes with DAW functionalities that allow to mix up notes and recording. I think it even allows VSTs to be added.

While test driving the premium version they had offered a major discount via mail I couldn't resist.
