I know a number of folks here use MuseScore for notation in conjunction with Band-in-a-Box, RealBand, and PowerTracks, especially given its price...FREE.

On the MuseScore website from March 12, 2015:

Quote:
Today, we are announcing the release of the MuseScore 2.0 "Release Candidate". A release candidate means that we have done everything we plan to do for the 2.0 release, but we are welcoming one final round of testing to be sure we have not forgotten anything. Assuming all goes well, there will be a final official release of MuseScore 2.0 on March 24 that will be identical to this release candidate except for updated translations (see below). At that point, you can expect another announcement with full details on everything you need to know about MuseScore 2.0.
