Musescore

Musescore is a scorewriting application initially beginning development in 2002. The project was publicly released in 2008 on the site musescore.org where it would see rapid growth as a result of its relatively high quality considering it being a free-of-charge program. The program itself supports score engraving, percussion notation, soundfont libraries, and many other features seen in its paid competitors. Musescore is currently in version 3.6.2.

musescore.com also hosts score uploading and a community feature, where discussions can be made in groups, like other forums such as Reddit. The discussion feature was likely intended to permit discussion of music, but it is often used by frequenters to talk with others about whatever comes to mind.

A result of Musescore's simple design, as well as being free to use, is that the program is very popular with young students, much more so than its competitors. Because of this, Musescore's community page is largely used by young people, which can be clearly seen upon one look at the front page at any given time. RSA is no exception to this, and is occasionally seen by the some of Musescore's community members as "immature."
