Seems pretty easy to implement, though I'm not sure why. I usually
just use scratch staves within the same file.
cut-and-paste to Word for musical examples
certainly saves some fudging around,
If the graphic export in Finale supported something other than TIFF
for bitmapped export, it would be a lot easier. Sibelius added PNG
export, and if Finale added that, it would then be *very* easy to
implement cut and paste of graphics into other apps.
and the possibilities for
different sound libraries for playback seems easier than Finale,
It doesn't say, though, if you can mix GPO with other synthesizers.
Using the Mixer window you can assign any of the installed devices to
any staff, so the answer is Yes you can use the Kontakt player for some
staves and any other midi device for other staves. Sib4 doesn't come
with a soundfont engine the way that Finale does, but you can certainly
install softsynths of your own and use a virtual midi device such as
Midi-yoke to run the midi output for whichever staves through midiyoke
into any softsynth you want.
It's a much more robust midi implementation than Finale's in that regard.
