Hi Sherry
Wooooow, quite a research you did on the topic of transcribing !!I am quite sure the folks in this forum love you too for trying to make Notation Musician and Composer one of the best tools musicians and music lovers can get.
I also agree with you that,despite all technical efforts,one of the best tools our Creator has given us will always be ......our ears.
Cheers
