You mean you didn't listen to the samples available on both the
MakeMusic and Garritan websites before you bought the upgrade?
Those sound wonderful -- however from my limited work with the 2006
upgrade, it is painfully apparent that the quality comes at a huge cost
in labor. We'll end up spending a lot of time in entering the score and
then a lot more to get it to sound ever so perfect when played back in
GPO. But we'll have to remember to do that work on a copy of the score,
so we can maintain a third copy to be optimized for playback through
non-GPO devices for sharing with those folks who don't have machines
powerful enough to use GPO.
It is obvious that for the demos on the web-sites they didn't just take
an existing Finale file and divert its output to GPO. Obvious now, but
not obvious from anything on the web-sites.
