Although I am still running OS 9.2 on my Mac with Fin 2K3, I have
been interested in what I am hearing about the latest version of
Finale. For a notation program to inadvertently delete your work is
cruel and unusual.
This is one of the many issues that drove me screaming from
Nightengale to Finale. Items that I had carefully entered into the
score did not extract with the parts. My Finale teacher who arranged
for the Air Force Band said that the arrangers that he worked with
would have thrown Nightengale directly into the trash and gone to an
alternative program. Although this sounded a little drastic at the
time, I find myself wondering why those of you who have been bitten
by some pretty scary bugs have not simply disposed of this version of
Finale and gone elsewhere. MM must be taken to task for selling an
unstable program.
The more I read of your problems and frustrations with Finale's
latest, the better 2K3 looks to me. I have no problems to report.
2K3 has been and will continue to be my faithful servant.
