Justin, You wrote in your blog that Finale 2012b would include: popular feature requests, bug fixes, and entirely new features, too. Could you give us any information on what those might be? I'm on Finale 2011 and decided to wait for 2013. Now that that will be a year away I might consider getting 2012, provided the extras in 2012b are worth it (considering my needs). The problem is, your upgrade price is good only through June 15. Will you be releasing more information before then? I won't upgrade without more information, but I don't want to lose out on the discount, either. Thanks.

Re: [Finale] Finale 2013
Justin, Thank you very much for helping convince MakeMusic to break the annual upgrade cycle. I am delighted that there won't be a Finale2013 this year and look forward to great things with the new 'release it when it's ready' mentality. And I'm thrilled also that you're releasing an iPad app -- I hope it competes nicely with the current notation apps which are doing excellent things -- Symphony Pro and Notion. I'm using them interchangeably to create initial arrangements when I'm away from home and then using MusicXML to export the pieces from the iPad to my computer and will be eager to see what your development team have come up with to compete. I hope it's not just a Finale version of Sibelius's Scorch, which is fine for playing and viewing files but not for creating or editing them. And thank you for being so open about all this -- I hope it represents a new era in Finale's concern for their end-users. Thank you! David H.

Or even possibly a whole new app for notation? There are so many musicians who are using iPads for mobile musical work that I think Finale could gain a whole new marketplace should you add a notation app. Notion is alright as far as it goes but it's too much like the PC/Mac Notion program for my tastes. And Symphony Pro also is alright as far as it goes, but it, too, has severe limitations for those of us used to the capabilities of Finale and Sibelius. And I've heard nothing from Sibelius about the possibility of a notation app, so the marketplace is wide open for Finale to capture. I'd even buy a new iPad to replace my original iPad if Finale came out with a notation app which required the increased RAM and the better processing and graphics capabilities of the new iPad. -- David H.

When using the Chord Tool, I have to right-click twice to get an arrow instead of the chord pointer ( I hope I'm explaining this clearly). Makes it very clunky when I want to change tools.
