I'm sorry you took it that way. I was refering to the statement, not you.

That is to say I was exploring the possible meanings of your statement - if you meant you cannot manage a score as well as in Sibelius or another dedicated score program, then I am agreeing with you. If you are saying you CANNOT do a score at all in Logic then I was saying that was a lie. Obviously you meant it in the first sense, so I am not calling you a lier. happy

Certainly. Shall we dance to a score produced in Logic or Sibelius? tongue

My setup:

Sample Libraries:

East West Symphonic Orchestra
East West Symphonic Choirs
East West Stormdrum
Garritan Personal Orchestra
Garritan Jazz and Big Band
G-Town Percussion
Sonic Reality Refills (for Reason)
Various free VST instruments

I also use NI's Guitar Rig 2 plugin when I'm tracking guitar parts.

Sequencers/Notation:

Cubase SX3
Finale 2008 (although I like 2007 better, they made some weird changes in 2008 that make certain aspects of score editing more time consuming.)
Reason 3.0

Also, if any of you guys own ProjectSAM or Vienna Symphonic sample libraries, let me know what you think of them.

I'm taking a Music Technology course that deals almost exclusively in teaching Finale 2007.

I LOVE it. Before, Finale made me want to kill myself, but with this straightforward, informal and informative instruction, I'm growing to appreciate it much, much more.

The only thing I really, really hate about Finale 2007 is that you can't start playback from a specified measure. It's hell for compositions that are hundreds of measures long.

You actually can. Playback Settings -> Current Counter Setting

The playback settings button is the one that looks like a speaker to the right of the tempo setting.



Finale, though a much harder program to learn than Sibelius, in the end has much more powerful features for the serious composer.
