Programs to write music out on

[MartyMcFly3]

Hey everyone. I have Finale 2002. It works great and all, but the samples are so horridly MIDI. Is there any program LIKE Finale (I.E. write on sheet music) out there that just has better samples?

I'm trying to learn some basics from REASON.
I bought a book for this one. Simply astonishing program.

Do you actually write the notes out, or is it like Fruityloops with those stupid bars?

Reason by Propellerhead.
Don't be fooled. The program is amazing...
