Re: [Finale] Re: Finale Productivity
Hi Nick, Thanks for clarifying that. My memory of $140 may have been a result of the trick of those $XX9.00 prices, or just a poor memory for those things.

Re: [Finale] Re: Finale Productivity 5.0
Hey Nick, Allowing the purchase of individual fonts would certainly be helpful for a number of the people I work with. They don't need the full package, they just need the Chord fonts.

I have the 4 version. Bill did send me the Jazz Articulations when he released them. So, what exactly has changed in this version? Is there a lower price to get updates for existing users?

RE: [Finale] Re: Finale Productivity 5.0
Hi, Nick... Thanx for dealing with this. Perhaps I am guilty of some confusion. I ordered mine via Sylvia Woods' Harp Center, as I was unfamiliar with Bill himself at that time...my one recollection was my saying gee, that's a steal and jumping on it. Let me see what I can find, if anything.

Right now my intent was just to sell the complete package, so that all Bill's materials live on and so that I can recover some of the investment of time and energy that went into putting this together, including the licensing deal. I'll certainly consider the idea of selling fonts separately in the future.

Re: [Finale] RE: Finale Productivity
It not a book - it's a set of fonts, templates other special things that come with a manual. It used to be available at gwmp.com, but there's only a notice of Bill's death on the site at the moment, so there's no way of knowing if anyone will continue to make this material available. I don't know if there is anyone with the necessary skills who could be given access to the material to maintain it on the web site. I imagine that would be up to Bill's family to determine. There are a number of us who have found Bill's work very useful, and I'd be sad to see its availability end. Chuck On Dec 16, 2006, at 4:32 PM, Stephen Ellis wrote: Where can I buy this book!
