Look for what suits u best. The best artists seem to like Fruity Loops, but I myself like to be different and use finale allegro. FL is probably better, I'm trying to get that too.

Finale Allegro 2005 comes already installed with soft Synth, a type of VST or the sort that has sound fonts of instruments. It attempts to automaticly make the instruments realistic and reverb them to a nice caliber. You can download the demo but it won't let you save. However a smaller version "Finalenotepad" is free and is not too far different from it. It uses another version of softsynth than I.

You get a whole set of instruments and some drums (which are difficult to use without extensive practice).

This song uses piano, and a synthesizer, trumpet and or trombone (i forget), guitar, xylaphone (however you spell it), and drum set (which includes atleast half of the percussion available in the whole program). I think xylaphones are only on Allegro though.

The weird thing about this song is that it's erie, then happy, then weird...then happy....then ceepy. It's the type of Celebration you have when your not sure it's over yet. ....creepy =\
