mercredi 1 décembre 2021, 14:00 , par Sweetwater inSync
Is your current notation software struggling to live up to expectations? Maybe you’re having formatting issues when exporting parts of your score or struggling with uninspiring sound samples. That’s where Sweetwater can help. We offer a comprehensive selection of band and orchestra products that cover every musical application imaginable — even scoring your school’s pep band or trumpet quartet. Here are notation software titles that every band director will love.
Avid Sibelius | Ultimate Band directors and composers across the globe trust Avid Sibelius | Ultimate for its easy and accessible scoring capabilities. Sibelius comes loaded with tons of template options to give you a solid starting point for any project. In addition to its massive range of instrument and transcription options, it will automatically warn you if you’re approaching the upper or lower range of an instrument. What’s more, you can use Sibelius to score on Microsoft Surface Pro tablets — a feature that lets you make the most of long bus rides. We’re also partial to the extensive range of key commands that make using Sibelius faster and more intuitive. Sibelius | Ultimate comes with the Lite versions of Neuratron PhotoScore and AudioScore, which let you sing or play an instrument to add notes into Sibelius, scan printed music for editing, or convert your handwriting into notation with the press of a button. Sweetwater also offers site licenses for Sibelius. Call your Sales Engineer for all the details.

Dorico Pro’s turbocharged user interface ensures that your workflow remains uncluttered by keeping the tools you need right up front. It also has next-level artificial intelligence that checks your notation and corrects it when you make a mistake. This way, you’ll spend more time actually composing and waste less of your planning periods on making corrections. We like Dorico Pro because it allows you to choose sounds from any virtual instrument and sound library — a massive step up from the lifeless, robotic sounds that can plague some other software. Dorico Pro includes the HALion Symphonic Orchestra library, which is packed with breathtaking samples and sounds to bring your compositions to life. Dorico Pro also offers a built-in sequencer, third-party VST3 support, and DAW functionality that make it a must-have for teaching music technology or composition courses. MakeMusic Finale 27 We all know how annoying it is to run into file-compatibility issues when exporting your score. MakeMusic Finale 27 solves that issue, letting you send out a score as a PDF, a graphic file, or a music file to be opened in other software (MusicXML, EPUB, and MIDI) or as audio files (MP3, AIFF, and WAV). And, while software compatibility is awesome, Finale is a mainstay for professional composition for far more significant reasons. It comes with ScoreManager, which makes creating, editing, and adapting complex arrangements a breeze. ScoreManager will save you untold hours over the course of a busy marching season. What’s more, the newest version of Finale supports real-time MIDI performance to capture ideas in a flash and one-click templates for almost any composition. Once the score is set, Finale’s 500+ Garritan virtual instruments and Human Playback function turn your notated music into a show-stopping performance. Site licenses for Finale 27 are also available, so be sure to call Sweetwater for pricing options.
