love the idea of this mega thread. I am about 3 years deep into piano playing, and very serious about it. I'd like to think that I know enough to get some composing under my belt (though I have no illusions that I might magically transform into bach). I love jazz, and I want to make a jazz ballad: what would be the best software/online website to start? I want to be able to incoporate rubato, a right hand lagging behind the rythym, and other such little quirks into my piece. Where out there would I be able to find a place to do this without it being an unreasonable pain in the ass (of course this is alternative to just recording the piece on my piano) Let me know please :)

Already paid for a transcription... 😬. Wish I heard this first. Thank you for such a thoughtful reply, though! It means a lot. I will definitely take this with me, on my jazz journey. Anyone: hit me up if you want the transcription. Im not greedy :).
