I seriously doubt that Finale will come anywhere close to Digital Performer finding tempo. I'd be really surprised if it did. And what about all the infinite tweaking you can do in DP?

Heck, their SmartMusic program with the slowdown feature sounds terrible. Slow down something in that, and immediately it sounds poor. Yet, the same MP3 in Transcribe or Amazing Slowdowner sounds fine.

I'm not holding out too much for that "feature"

The "Import Audio" feature will be a big help to me. As stated in the preview: "import a stereo mix of your rock band to add a horn arrangement." This is exactly the type of thing that I do all the time. In the past I've had to do my horn arrangement in Digital Performer when the client sends me an MP3 of the basic track to work with. Then I'd have to start over from scratch in Finale in order to create the parts for printing. I just hope that Finale does a better job than DP of determining the tempo of the audio file. I found that in DP I usually had to manually tap in the tempo from start to finish.
