Anyway: I'm wondering if I can get some feedback on where things stand with Finale 2005 as regards the many problems I am familiar with in F2002, and I'm wondering what the NEW frustrations might be with 2005 (again, as regards notation -- I do not use these programs' composing tools or sound-file generating tools.) At this point I'd considering upgrading if I thought that 2005 was honestly better than 2002.
If there is somewhere on the internet where someone has actually documented these things, that would certainly suffice. I don't want to take up too much bandwidth here! ;-)
I have no interest in S~ myself, exactly because of the "you can't do that in S~" responses I've seen in various forums over the years which I have been able to do trivially in Finale, so I don't look often. In response to a question about comparisons of Sibelius and Finale, I discovered recently that the MakeMusic! website does show a direct, feature by feature comparison with and unnamed "leading competitor", but that Sibelius does not see any particular value of providing the same objective data, instead, seeming to prefer unsubstantiated testimonials.
Tuplets and expressions were dramatically redesigned in 2004 and 2005, but beyonhd that, I'd suggest that you prepare a list of questions about areas you formerly found problematical, and post that to this list; it will in no way (at least not to me) be a "waste of bandwidth."
