THE ART OF MUSIC NOTATION^TM

New Features

Finale. Unmatched flexibility!

Finale provides you with more ways than any other program to create your music, enter it, edit it, hear it, view it, lay it out on the electronic page, and ultimately, print it. That’s why Finale is the first choice of more professional musicians, composers, arrangers, copyists and publishers.

Here are some examples of what you can do with Finale.

Only Finale gives you HyperScribe. See your score entered virtually as fast as you play it with HyperScribe, Finale’s patented real-time note-entry method. Play your music the way you want to...and HyperScribe notates it just as fast as your computer will allow. Or, notate while you listen to pre- viously recorded tracks. You’ll actually hear your music develop while you’re playing and composting. (SIC)

Choose from over 30 Templates. Finale offers 36 complete pages layouts, or Templates, from ‘Lead Sheet” to “Full Orchestral Score” with everything from “Handbell,” “Guitar Tablature” and SABT w/Piano” in between. Just select a Template and start writing.

The Jazz Font Set by Sigler Music is used in the piece Schreibtisch

Multiple Font Capabilities for Multiple Looks. Finale is the only music notation program that offers you the capability to use multiple music fonts. Now the “look” of your score can be as unique as your music.

Drum Mapping! Percussion Notation. Specify which noteheads belong where on your score with ease...then map the notation to the note on a midi instrument that uses a percussion sound. The results absolutely accurate notation and playback.
