I wouldn't necessarily consider the one available here to be 'awesome'.

My advice, pathfinder, unless you study music, or at least have basic musical knowledge, just use other, free MIDIs. Making your own really isn't as easy as it seems.

Although it definitely is a rewarding feeling if you complete one that is relatively successful and sounds good. So if you do want a good one, I recommend forking out the cash needed for programs like Sibelius, or NoteWorthy Composer.
I haven't used Sibelius much at all, but I do use an older version of NoteWorthy Composer, but I'm not sure if it's still available anywhere on the web, as it is a trial version.

But here's what I think you should do:
Go to the NoteWorthy Composer site, download the evaluation, and see what you think. Then at the end of the 30 day trial period, if you are unable to use it any longer, either pay for the full version (if you still want it), or tell me, and I'll zip up and send you my older, trial version of NoteWorthy. The thing I like about the older version is that it doesn't have a limit to how long you can use it for, only to how many times you can save each file.

Also, there really isn't too much that the newer version can do that mine can't, so I really don't see the point in ever upgrading, myself.

I hope that helps.
