Abstract

As a matter of fact, lots of software has been developed to realize music composing. With this in mind, based on the historical development of computer music and its current use, this article compares and analyzes the three composition software, Finale, Grageband and Musescore, after combining the data. It introduces in detail the general usage of Finale, Musescore and Grageband, as well as how to use these three-composition software to compose music. It details the differences between Grageband, Musescore, and Finale, and discusses how this three or two composition software can be combined to produce richer and more beautiful music. Then, it discusses how these three-composition software will be combined with AI in the future since AI is developing rapidly now. Then discussed how AI can be added to the built-in systems of these three software, allowing AI to generate a complete piece of music based on the basic melody or rhythm input by the user. Finally, based on the existing data and analysis, turns out that Musescore may be the best composition software now.
