I have a violinist in my university orchestra who is a computer

wanted to know if there already existed such a program.
I don't know if he wants to develop this as proof of concept or if he
intends to develop a full product. *I* haven't heard of such a
program so I thought I'd ask the experts!
I've not heard of one, but I would love to have that as a Finale front end.
Assuming it had a good recognition engine, it would save me hours of time
to compose straight onto the staff.
But I'll not even begin to think of how it would be taught to distinguish
among notes, dots, harmonics, etc., without some real contextual smarts!
Wow, if that person works with Michael Good at Recordare to produce
MusicXML output, he'd have a terrific front-end for either Sibelius or
Finale (doubling his potential market) and possibly even for midi
translation for a front-end for sequencers.
