I use musescore.
Its got 3 modes on entry
a. clickety-click -- ie mouse
b. keyboard shortcuts
c. midi keyboard

For bulk entry direct entry from a midi keyboard is best

[Since I am not much of a musician, I usually hover between a and b]

If after that you want the lilypond toolchain, it will export to
lilypond and then use your favorite text editor. [Not sure of the
quality of export]
