and the number 36 to the end of the song ?

You can hide those measures by using

Measures -> Collapse multiple measure rests

you can import into Composer , sounds different from the default ones ?
For example, a drum kit , a synth sound ?
If this is possible where can I download these sounds ?
and what extension do they have?

Notation Composer does not have its own sounds, but can use any MIDI device that you have plugged into or installed on your computer.

If you already have VSTis that you use, you may already have a set up that allows Notation Composer to "plug in" to the host for your VSTis. Open your VSTi host first. Then, if you have Notation Composer installed, run it and take a look at

Setup -> MIDI Devices Configuration

to see what Devices you have listed. If you only have the GS Wavetable, you will need to (1) install a virtual MIDI cable to communicate with the VST host and (2) you will probably want to disable the GS Wavetable.

For step-by-step instructions for virtual MIDI cables, please see the video at http://www.notation.com/vb-forum/showthread.php?t=3863

To disable the GS Wavetable, in Composer

Setup -> MIDI Devices Configuration -> Port -> Select Ports

and uncheck the GS Wavetable box.

Let us know if you have further questions

ttfn,
