I am strictly against deletion of this article. There are enough independent sources showing the notability of this product -- maybe not for the commercial companies which do produce competing products and want to suppress knowledge of the competition. Just google for "forte musical notation" and you find enough.
I myself do not use Forte, although I have a licence for the most basic version, but I am against the competion on the market for musical notation programs is fought out by deleting articles on the competion on Wikipedia.
So, I'll remove the "proposed deletion" macro.

Please discuss detail issues with article content here but do not remove content and references while article is at AfD. To view restored content see here. For reasoning see edit summary. While points may be valid removal of references while article at AfD is in general not best practice. Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 02:54, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
While points may be valid removal of references while article at AfD is in general not best practice.Uh, no? The best practice at any time is to make sure our articles conform to our policies and guidelines. I am not taking a side on the point of the AFD--I'm not entirely familiar with the domain and the references there look Good Enough to keep the article. The content removed here was removed because it is a WP:NOT violation, and where not a violation of that policy, it violates WP:PRIMARY. --Izno (talk) 03:41, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
Is this Forte program here related to the Midisoft software? And if so, how is it related?
Someone claimed that Lugert Verlag picked up the Midisoft software, and renamed it to Forte. Before that, that page claimed that it was owed by RecordLab, which, along with Midisoft, went belly-up. The founder or owner of Midisoft – if that is really Raymond Bily – that Midisoft (either the software or the company or both) was taken away from him via a "hostile" takeover.
SOURCES: https://hackya.com/us/midisoft-for-windows-7-window-8/ (See comment by poster "Raymond Bily • 3 years ago") AND http://www.midisoft.com (supposedly regained by Raymond Bily) AND https://brightarrow.com/our-company/ (an apparent current company of Raymond Bily).
