Hi folks: I made a HUGE mistake, and got myself a copy of Logic Express to make MP3s on a Mac (from Finale scores). When I figured out I could do it with soft fonts, Export to Audio File and iTunes, Logic Express became needlessly complicated. I think my cost on it was $249. I'd gladly sell

Any advice on this topic? I guess it depends on a few things: 1) Is the score for performance, publication, or some other use? 2) (If it's for performance) Are you going to be the only conductor/music director using the score? 3) (If for publication) on what size paper will
