Hi Brandon,
I do not use Windows, The idea of Finale sounds interesting.
Perhaps a mac edition?
Once I find the tools, I will be putting together the platform for it, meaning I am not basing this on my current computer infrastructure.
Thanks much,
Karen

Hello Karen,

 Built in notation would be ideal, but what you shared which has me
 interested is  a program that can notetate what  I sing.
If I was on Windows and didn't care about free software, the DAW I would use hands-down would be Reaper. It has notation built-in and is a full featured DAW with cross-platform support. I would recommend Ardour too, but it doesn't have notation support yet.

Finale has some form of voice to notation capabilities, maybe you can try a free version of that and see if it works for you, if you need to use auto-notation from your voice.

 Sonic visuals?  if I am correct, what platform supports this tool?
Sonic-visualizer is what I mean. You can open audio files with and then enable a spectrogram view. From there, you can highlight fundamental frequencies to find out what notes they are. I use Sonic-visualizer for many different things, including this, and I believe there is a windows version.

Let me know if you have any other questions,
