Thanks, Bob. Is that still even available, if I decide to go that route? I haven't had time to experiment further yet.

This website mentions it as available, but I cannot advise on the reliability of the site: https://master-tracks-pro.software.informer.com/Passport Music Software, the creators, don't currently list it as available, but there are hints in the forum pages that this might change. https://passportmusic.com/Bob might know more except he did mention 'abandoned ware'.

Thanks, Trevor. It's all coming back to me now. I was a beta tester for Encore by Passport Music for decades. I forgot that was also the company for MasterTracks Pro. I might have an EXE file kicking around, now that I know what folder to look in.
Not sure I trust that first website.
The second website link promised Encore 6, written by Don Williams the original developer, a few years ago. It's not done, but many of us still have hope. In case it is of interest to you or others, Encore was always the most user-friendly of those original notation programs but became unusable in 2013. The company changed hands to GVOX and was only recently revived. I have many hundreds of Encore scores and I hope to be able to read them and export to Music XML when Encore 6 is released. Anything beyond that will be gravy.

Not sure I trust that first website. We're on the same page, 100% I suspect it's probably laden with 'bloat-ware' (or worse).

MTPro hasn't been available for years. GVox bought it, rewrote it, introduced a few bugs, fixed them and then abandoned it.
Don Williams came to where we were playing. He said he's working on Encore first, then he'll get to MTPro, but the code was more messed up than he thought, so it's going to take longer than he thought.
I have an old copy on a WinXP computer. One of those ThinkPad machines that just won't die. I tried it on Win11, and it seems to work, but I can't associate the file name with it. But as long as the XP computer works, I'm fine.
I tried PTPro, but it doesn't have the editing features.
One example of many. If I decide I want to delay the snare drums on beats 2 and 4 a little more than I played them, I could highlight the track, choose the pitch for the snare drum, choose only beats 2 and 4, decide how many ppm ticks to move it, and hit enter. Done.
There are dozens of different editing features you can do with the change dialog box, that can affect the entire track, so I don't have to go bar to bar to change something that I think would improve the song.

Notes.
i think it might be usefull for other users if you detailed in the ptpro wishlist forum what added midi features you would like to see because your obviously very midi experienced. this would also help rb users like myself.
happiness and respect.

Thanks. Sounds like a good idea.
I'm very busy doing end-of-season gigs, but as soon as they are done, I'll do it, along with screenshots of the dialog boxes.
