More OS X software is always a good thing.

it's about friggin' time. the carbon version was really buggy and pretty much sucked. Sibelius is good, but not yet widely accepted for publication. now i can never boot to OS 9 again (well after October)

Finally!!! I've been watching friends in the ministry switch to Peecees because that was cheap for their church, their churches were already full of beige boxes, and because the software we so desperately need for arranging each week only worked in Classic.
Agreed, the classic version was buggy and crashed often. --------------------------------------- Quicksilver G4 933 PB Wallstreet G3 233 PowerMac 4400/200 PB 5300cs/100 Original Mac 128K

TOO LITTLE TOO LATE!
I switched to Sibelius a year ago when the native OS X version (2.0) came out to arrange and orchestrate music for my Marching Band. Would've been with Finale, but instead they decided to wait a year. Now Sibelius has already had an update to make it even faster, and with more features. Good riddance Fin(ish)ale! |

Finale is the most ridiculous software program out there.
Sibelius software is so much more advanced - don't even both with Finale!

Hopefully, the new version will exorcise the numerous bugs that have always existed in Finale. I've used it since 1991, and have stuck with it because of familiarity. If the new version is still problematic, though, I would finally consider a switch to Sibelius.

Coda missed the boat
I switched to Sibelius a year ago. The ease of use was a true selling point. After the first month, I was faster notating in Sibeliius than Finale. All my Finale files transfered with ease.
You will love the print quality. No regrets leaving os 9! Sorry coda. I'd love to send all my multi-book manuals back so you could turn them back into trees so you could save your sinking ship.

too little, too late, Finale
Finale:
SIbelius: I switched about a year ago and I can't believe how much more Mac-like Sibelius is. I do a lot of writing, and though basic note input is now similar, all the articulations, dynamics, rehearsal markings, etc are just better in Sibelius. I remember the bad old days of having my reference manual, encyclopedia, addendum, and installation/tutorial manuals right there on my desk to search for what arcane, befuddling key combination did what. See ya, Coda. Why don't you take your free coffee mug with you..... MFK |
