What kind of things do you want to do with your MIDI
piano? Notation, Sequensing, Small group or large group
arranging? The possibilities are quite large. I use
quite a few Music apps, and they vary quite a bit. If
they are good or bad somethimes depends on your use.
For top or the line notation, nothing touches Finale
(Coda).I have that, so if you want to know anything
about it, let me know. Coda makes a less featured
version, Music Prose-- is quite good for less intense
notation. Performer (Mark of the Unicorn) is one of the
best sequensing apps, but it does have a copy
protection scheme that is kind of a pain to deal with.
 Any will work with your SE, you will need an
interface, or course. Check out the MIDI Translator
(sold by Mac Warehouse) for $42. works just fine, and
is cheap.
 Really need to know more about exactlly what you
want to do to give a good recommendation.
