I bought Finale, many years ago, to engrave. The playback was useful to
me almost entirely for checking notes.
However, the improvement in playback in the last three versions, with HP
and GPO, has been amazing. The improved playback is now extremely
useful to me. I can now make high-quality demo cds of my scores to give
conductors that surpass the quality I ever dreamed of. I love it.
More playback improvements? Bring them on!
(I never spent time learning sequencers, and never wanted to. Notation
is what I know, and what I work with. I always found sequencers
frustrating, and was always grateful to get back to Finale.)

Hi all,
I have never cared much about playback, aside from a preliminary
proof-read for simple engraving projects. Are there actual stats to
show the veracity of the above statement?
If this is the direction that Finale is going to take (to the
exclusion of engraving issues), then perhaps it is time for me to bail.
On the other hand, if this is not true, I would hate to see the
programmers at MM getting the wrong impression about their subscriber
base.
