Let me put it like this.
With a cheat sheet present it takes me around 30 sec per note to get a note into LMMS.
I have to, with every note over and over again go like:
K, this is c then that must be ..... counting the steps.
Because of this though, I am proud I did this in LMMS from sheetmusic. (I had a mate print it out)
With help from the LMMS forum.
Now if this is your first track from sheet music, then don't pick this one. Listen to other people (unlike me) warning you about this not being a simple track to put in a daw,

This makes me appreciate modern dance music even more. only need 1 A4.
One of my biggest issues , is were to put a note from sheet music in LMMS, timing wise.
Once tried, the cure A forest. This bloody piece starts with only 1 note, before the second bar. (bass guitar)
After failing for about an hour to understand the sheet music, I hooked up my midi controller.
With my sense of rhythm I hit a note on the controller. This was my face, when looking at the piano roll:
Owww, that was what the sheetmusic was trying to tell me. The position of that first note.
That piece of sheet music also had 3 notes at the end. (can't recall the name for this)
