For some time now I started to get interested in transcribing music that I liked. Now I work on it professionally. I use a sheet music editing program called Sibelius.
One of the problems that occur when transcribing music, is knowing exactly the second in which is a certain compass. For example, in difficult parts that need to be listened to more closely. This is where Transcribe! comes in.
This program has an intuitive and friendly interface. It is not necessary to look for tutorials if you want to learn. With Transcribe! you can list the measures, so you can quickly locate a section of the track only with the bar number, without needing to be looking for the exact second it is in.
Transcribe! allows you to create loops in a section that requires special attention. You can even lower the speed, raise or lower the pitch (this is useful when the recording is old and is higher or lower than it should be).
The program has more advanced options, but honestly only with these options that I named, I have been able to save a lot of time and be much more efficient in transcription days.
If you like to transcribe and want to try this tool, you can see more details on the manufacturer's website at this link:

Tried Sibelius a few years ago, seemed too complicated at that time. Did they improve it? More user friendly? I use coda finale atm.....
I always use Sibelius. I learn it by a course in tuescuelavirtual.com 4 years ago. And I love it :D
