Price for V4 is now $500 and V3.1 is $400.
My V4 should be arriving Tues and I will have questions about the best way to get leadsheet format music into it. I know scanning will work, but what about creating leadsheet format music directly with music notation software? Is this practical?Lanny, I got good advice from Scott Yee he's got some helpful info. Here's what seems to have worked best for me. I use Band In A Box. Once I get a leadsheet in BIAB, I just choose to print to the Freehand printer and usually get a great looking very clear image of the leadsheet. I also have a number of fake books in PDF format. I have attempted to print using the Freehand print driver from the fake books, but print quality is poor. For the best results I have to copy the page from the PDF file and paste into Paint then save as a .png file. Once in a .png file I'm able to print to Freehand and transfer to the MPP with a good clean image.
