Finale2008 from MakeMusic! offers significant improvements to what is already the world's best selling music notation product. Numerous enhancements catapult this product ahead still further in it's ability to serve the needs of composers and arrangers everywhere. The best just got better...
A new pinnacle of achievement in commercially available music notation software, this is the flagship product of an outstanding range that represents unprecedented value to people who need to write, hear, and demonstrate musical scores for all kinds of musical ensembles. Together, they present a choice which allows you to enter at a price point and level of functionality to suit your needs.
Communication as never before is now possible between teachers and their students, and between band leaders and bandmembers.
Where, in the past, many musicians and students have struggled to produce viable scores using inappropriate recording software, this suite of products removes the need to settle for anything less than total satisfaction by providing a powerful, elegant solution that is at once comprehensive and cost effective.
Finale allows you not only to compose your score, but listen to the result played back at high quality using the incredible sounds of the Garritan personal orchestra - enhanced still further for the 2008 edition. If you are not used to scoring music and hearing it played perfectly straight away, this alone will have you in raptures. But further imagine that you are working with a student band, and you would like them to quickly grasp the concept of a new score that you have just written or arranged? Or perhaps you are writing for a school or college project, and you previously had no way to fully realize the sound of the music you have just created - at last, now you do. Hear it; understand it; enjoy it; improve it! Better yet is the fact that your students or bandmembers can download the music you write and practice it before the rehearsal, simply by using the free Notepad software.
Now all of this is possible, and more. Better yet, if additionally you are eligible for Academic Pricing, Finale 2008 becomes even more affordable.
Our View: Using Finale is like driving an unexpectecly powerful car; yes, there's a learning curve, but it's surprising how quickly that extra power makes you smile! Make Music offer online and Email support once you register your copy. However, Northern Music Online customers also have unfettered access to dedicated UK telephone and Email support, which is focussed on your needs, as we ourselves are fellow users and understand the issues - such as when issues of compatibility and so on may arise.
Does this software represent good value? In a word - outstanding! Time is precious; and Finale 2008 offers more power features for less of the readies than anything else out there. As a regular Finale user, I wouldn't be without it.
NB: Our UK based support is exclusive to customers of www.northernmusiconline.co.uk
