jolyon pyne		 en I can't see a way to have just a single stave, or anything but a two stave system.

Nathan Anderson		 en I hesitantly paid for a months' worth of Noteflight (which is optional) and found that this is one of the best programs out there! It is very easy to use, and the help team goes out of their way to help you with any bugs you may find. Five stars all the way!

Jonathan Gamblin		 en This program is so legit. I haven't found anyting like it online and it provides great practice for a music theory student.

Rsbf Playz		 en I want it to work because this chrome book wont let me install Muscore but Noteflight takes me to the main page and nothing happens when i hit "Sign Up" I would like to try this though.

micah mcdaniel (maidensolo)		 en I am a classically trained pianist and a composer. This is the first time in internet history that I have been able to sit down and compose at my laptop without connecting an instrument to it. I like this because I can double up and put a piano keyboard under my staff paper. It makes composing so nice. I can either write in notation, or if I think I need to hear a couple of notes, I can play them right then. It's so convenient. It's intuitive, also. Granted, there are some bugs, but I didn't read the instructions. I just jumped in and started writing a very simple 2 handed composition to see if it would stick or if I would wind up fighting the software like I always do when I come across this kind of program. This time I was pleasantly surprised! Now I am going to go listen to some other people's compositions and see if there are any people who like to compose together or who like to play Phish covers. M

Aidan D		 en This is the most painful app ever made. It is so hard to use, I could write a measure faster if I used my ears to write. I want to cry in a corner. Save yourself and DO NOT GET THIS APP. SAVE YOURSELF! If I could, I would give this app a negative 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 star rating.

Will Hamilton		 en I absolutely love Noteflight. This got me into music and I am still using it today, 4 years later! Noteflight is a great notation site! They offer LOT's of great features and if you buy premium like I did, it is totally worth it! The Good: Noteflight is a wonderful place to discover new music, rising stars, and starting composers just like you and me! There software is fast and user-friendly and they also have an amazingly helpful staff there, whenever you need them! The Bad: Noteflight recently got a new update with countless new great features...buuut, it takes a little fiddling and getting used to. But even though it may take you longer to learn how to use it, it is still effective! Also, Noteflight is on the web, sometimes that makes it so it is hard to load big scores, so if you have bad internet, I would suggest staying away from writing symphonies! Th Ugly: Always, there has to be something. There are quite a few people on noteflight, in fact, millions. Lot's of these people can not always be the nicest and rather rude. Stay away from spammers though and you should be fine!
