I use the iPad Finale App and it works very well for what I need to do. It is only a player, you cannot edit music on it. I use it for accompaniments for our vocal quartet. We plug it into the house sound system (or you can use an amplified speaker.) I no longer have to carry and set-up my sequencer. It's also easier to rehearse in the middle of a number as the iPad shows the Finale pages and you can move the playback marker. I think they might add editing later, but not sure.
And it's free, so play with it.

I was wondering if anyone has experience of using an iPad with Finale and whether the experience was positive or negative. I use the computer keyboard and speedy edit in Finale exclusively, so I suspect an iPad is not going to be a very efficient tool, but just in case it is, I thought I would ask the question. And can the iPad be connected to a second monitor, leaving the iPad as the input device only?
