To meet the audience taste and expectation is the main task of the composer. Audience interest is based upon the characterization of timbres, feeling of rhythms and tempos. To maintain proper pitch orientation, rhythmic orientation and timbre orientation by conventional methods are the main problems faced by young musicians. Computer softwares are the only solution to these problems. The study was carried out among the professionals, teachers and students to find out the problems associated with musical composition and role of computer softwares in the solution of these problems. Quantitative research method was utilized to collect the data and chi square test was exploited to check the significance. Significant differences were observed for Classic music, Folk music, Rock music, Soul music and Hip hop music for the music type used by the musicians, pitch orientation and rhythmic orientation for the Compositional problems faced by the musicians, Notion 6, MuseScore 2, Sibelius First and Finale PrintMusic for the Sofwares used by the musicians in the solution of compositional problems.
