Absolutely correct. I do have Encore which I planned to use for orchestra scores but I have not had to use it for a couple of years. If you go to Epilogue Records MP3 station at http://stations.mp3s.com/stations/3/epilogue_recording_artists.html you can hear what we can do in our studios with MusicTime. Every piece of accompaniment was scored, sequenced and MIDI played using MusicTime except the Good Folk music which was not totally played via MIDI. 'Amazing Grace', by the Good Folk is a mix of MIDI and instruments. With 16 staves, each holding up to four-note chords or four independant sequences, we have the ability, if needed, to sequence 64 individually sequenced tracks, not enough for an orchestra, but good enough for our purposes.
BTW- MusicTime by Passport Systems is being sold at McCormacks for $49. McCormacks? On line it's at http://www.mccormicksnet.com/musictmd.htm with a money back guarantee if you're not satisfied. They haven't had one returned yet, I understand. Also, they used to have demos of the software. You might send email to them and ask.
