Well, I'd say you're using a completely incorrect and idiosyncratic

I don't think anyone will disagree with that.
Yes, David, I would have a different definition of a sequencer.
I find the MIDI tool to be rather unwieldy in Finale.
My definition of a sequencer would include some kind of editable piano-roll
view as well as the ability to draw controller data using a mouse and edit MIDI
at the event-list level

But you can edit MIDI data and save the file as MIDI. That makes it a
sequencer, seems to me, but maybe you have a different definition of

No, Finale is not a sequencer, nor is Sibelius...
Finale has a built-in softsynth and comes with SOME sampled sounds from the
Garritan Personal Orchestra sound library. Finale can be used in conjunction
with any VST instrument manufactured by Native Instruments (NI).
Hope this helps. If you wan
Silly question:
Do Sibelius and Finale have a sequencer and a sampler?
Thanks, John.

I seem to recall an earlier discussion of "wandering" augmentation dots--dots
become separated from the notes they're supposed to augment. I got bitten by

Hi Chuck,
I haven't made the switch yet. I know I should, because it will
eventually be faster, once I get over the learning curve. But I'm
always on deadline and I never seem to have the time to re-train myself.
