Best music composer/editor

I've decided after all these years to start making some sidmusic, so the question is:

What do you consider to be the best composing/editing program for making sum choons at the moment?

For party music entries, size and raster time does not matter. for demo uses and a number of other things it is but some players are designed to use so little raster time, they have inadequate control and quality. You will notice most of the top musicians use certain players that use somewhere between $18-$30 raster lines.

Fanta still keeps using JCH's editor. But I started coding a player/editor too which I'll try to make first-class. Furthermore, it'll combine less usage of raster time with advanced functions known from SDI, JCh and their likes.

I want to add SidWinder to the editor's list: it's quite simple but not banal, and for singlespeed tunes it never goes over $17/$18 if you avoid guru calls.
I abitually use the Plus/4+SIDcard version of it, but there is a newer version for C64 that works really fine and semms to be much more userfriendly.

Hehe, that Sadotracker comment (and reading a bit of the SidWinder docs) made me think.. Now I actually realize why I've preferred writing selfmade routines/editors and why they are usually quite simple: because I wouldn't be able to learn anything more complicated :)

Though, the obvious result is that composing of any advanced music should not be attempted in them :)

If you want music editors in the tracker-style, there are OdinTracker, CyberTracker (by me - sorry for selfpromotion, but it's irrelevant who made it) and SoundTracker (<- old and bad) + possibly some more i don't know of. (you can find the linx here in CSDb)

dont forgot the infamous soundmonitor :o) while its player sux hard (uses LOTS of rastertime, peaks to >$70 or sth), it still has its own unique sound and a VERY good interface, supports midi etc pp....you gotta like numbers though to use it ;)
