Re: [Finale] Competition anyone?

I haven't even looked because I don't use the other program. I am not interested in what it can and cannot do. I don't see how there can be a meaningful comparison between them because they are so vastly different. I say, let the entrants use any and all plug-ins, any and all fonts, and let

Isn't plate engraving the art we are all aspiring to reproduce with the software? Yes I think professional plate engravers (if there are any of them left) could do a better job than software. d. collins wrote: > David H. Bailey écrit: > >> They could simply get a plate-engraver to do the wh

Re: [Finale] Competition anyone?

I would think that time could be controlled to the extent that the engraving profession is filled only with truly honorable people who wouldn't cheat just to gain a point or two in a competition. If we are worrying about people not being honest in the plug-ins used or the amount of time spent

Re: [Finale] Competition anyone?

Actually, not. A fair and valid competition of software only would be to find some musicians with computer competence, but with no exposure to notation software, give them each a shrink-wrapped version of one of the programs and then have an independent panel of judges observe the whole proce

Re: [Finale] Competition anyone?

Then it becomes a competition of engravers and not software. So a "souped-up" version of Finale on plug-in steroids is going to go up against an out-of-the-box Sibelius (because that is the only way that program can be used). Sounds fair to me. Not. And since you would include any plug-ins a

Re: [Finale] Competition anyone?

With all the ones which come with and the others which I have downloaded I can't remember anymore which come with Finale and which don't. For a competition of the software, any plug-ins which ship with the program should be allowed and any others shouldn't be allowed. Jari Williamsson wrote

A few years ago I saw a comedy sketch on TV called "Interenational One Man Wrestling":  The man in the ring  is beaten and flung from one side to the other, but he's in there alone - there's no-one hitting him. The best bit is when he puts his arm behind his neck and slams himself head first into
