ac3charland Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Quick question. It's time for me to go out and buy another music manuscript book (I prefer to write music on paper first, rather than directly into Finale). I'm looking for something large (11x17" or larger), wire bound, and with a reasonable number of staves for a page that size (18 or more; this would seem to be a no-brainer, but I've seen educational 11x17 manuscript paper with TWO staves). Do the manuscript enthusiasts of Young Composers have a recommendation for a particular book they use? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImperialFlute Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I get Manuscript books called Archives from Sam Ashes. It's 96 page 10 stave..... slightly larger than the other book I had, but you could probably find a bigger book from the same company. There was a website on my book that I have never been to, but you can go if you wanted to check it out. it was www.daddario.com Goodluck finding a great stave book! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryla Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I make my own in Sibelius. That way I can customize them the way I want and need :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beginner Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I used archive 18-stave.....it's kind of difficult for piano music, but for an ensemble I've found it to be the best. It looks good, feels good, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
