They are well aware of the issue on both sides.

The potential is astounding, and much can be done now, but it is unpredictable, labor intensive, and generally very frustrating. If these issues were addressed head on and improved or eliminated, this would be the ultimate platform for notation and recording! (I already told MakeMusic they should start a partnership with Apple to provide a notation interface for GarageBand and increase the Finale user base by zillions. This would also challenge Garritan & NI to work harder with MM to stay in the game.) > Hi Johannes, > > I basically agree, and this is something I've been trying to impress > upon Tom and Gary.
