After weeks of waiting patiently, Finale 2012 Music Notation Software has finally come into stock in the UK. With fantastic brand new features such as the Score Manager that lets you quickly change staff name, transposition, clef, and playback with one setting, and provides automated bracketing and staff order so you can easily control every aspect of your score in one place, plus great new Garritan sounds, and even more improved file sharing capabilities, to mention just a few of the 2012 improvements, we are sure this will be a big pre-christmas hit, and just in time!
Although Finale notation software is not the biggest in the UK (in contrast with the US where it is firmly number one) there is a growing band of musicians who rate this one their favourite and come back to upgrade year after year. Here a few of the exclusive features you only get in Finale:
Record or Import Audio – Give arrangements authenticity and life with a real vocal or instrumental track. Only Finale lets you record or import a mono or stereo audio file for unprecedented realism.
Band-in-a-Box Auto-Harmonizing – Automatically transform your melodies by creating up to 6-part hamonies in dozens of styles and voices.
TempoTap – Control the tempo as you record, or adjust the beat placement after recording a rubato performance.
MicNotator – Enter notation into Finale simply by playing your brass or woodwind instrument
Human Playback – Your music deserves to be heard with all the feeling, phrasing, and nuance you felt when you wrote it. Finale’s exclusive Human Playback plays your music as you would want it to be performed, even if you enter your notes with a mouse.
ScoreMerger – Consolidate multiple movements into a single document – even if they don’t contain the same number of staves, or have different instrumentation.
MusicXML import and export – MusicXML allows you to transfer the sounds and graphical elements in your file to other applications including older versions of Finale. Only Finale includes for free the ability to import and export MusicXML files.
Plus so much more….
