I've been studying the "new features" of Finale 2006 from the web
site and it seems to me that much of what is being promoted is not so
much "new" as just a better GUI.
Being able to mix in real time is a new addition, but recording
individual tracks and addressing various MIDI parameters have always
been there. They were just awkward to use.
Same thing with the "Engraver Copy and Paste." It will be faster to
have all the options on one page rather than many. Robert Patterson's
Mass Copy still looks superior, however.
I hope MM continues to combine dialog boxes and does something about
the atrocious expression and articulation tools. A more efficient
user interface can save loads of time and help new users understand
the program better.
