Fender Notion
Fender Notion is a music notation and composition application that enables musicians to create, edit, play back, and share musical scores. The software supports standard sheet music notation, guitar tablature, percussion notation, and arrangements for multiple instruments. Users can enter notes through an interactive piano keyboard, guitar fretboard, drum pad, or supported MIDI input devices. Its playback engine uses sampled instruments, including orchestral recordings performed by the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios. Fender Notion provides tools for adding chord symbols, articulations, dynamics, lyrics, and other musical markings to compositions. The application supports wireless score transfers between compatible devices and integrates with Fender Studio Pro for exchanging musical notation and MIDI data.

LilyPond
LilyPond is a music engraving program, devoted to producing the highest-quality sheet music possible. It brings the aesthetics of traditionally engraved music to computer printouts. LilyPond is free software and part of the GNU Project. LilyPond is a powerful and flexible tool for engraving tasks of all kinds, for example classical music, complex notation, early music, modern music, tablature, vocal music, lead sheets, educational materials, large orchestral projects, customized output, and even Schenker graphs. LilyPond came about when two musicians wanted to go beyond the soulless look of computer-printed sheet music. Musicians prefer reading beautiful music, so why couldn’t programmers write software to produce elegant printed parts? The result is a program that creates beautiful sheet music following the best traditions of classical music engraving. It takes care of the details of layout programmatically, allowing composers, transcribers and publishers to focus on the music.
