    Powerful music scoring software
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2012*

In retirement I have returned to music after a 50-year separation. My primary focus is to develop piano and guitar performance skills, but I am also interested in songwriting and composition. A little research led me to Sibelius as a well regarded composition package. I had previously used their standalone playback package named Scorch to become familiar with the layout and playback of scores produced in Sibelius; I was impressed with what I saw. It was a fairly easy decision to go with the company's composition software, now marketed and maintained by Avid.Sibelius First, which I am discussing here, is the introductory level software package. It appears capable of doing anything a beginning student of composition or would-be songwriter needs to be productive. If you move on to grander efforts like operas and symphonies, or even just complex compositions for smaller ensembles, you can easily upgrade to the full version of Sibelius (currently Sibelius 7.1). The software license permits installation on two machines, usually a desktop for sustained productivity and a laptop for composition on the fly.Sibelius scores can be written directly or generated by scanning sheet music or interpreting MIDI files. The software makes it as easy as possible to do away with the mechanics of composition so you get right into the creative process. Still, there is a bit of a learning curve. Hard copy manuals and texts are separately available and may well be worth the cost for those with limited composition training.An Aside: The Scorch program I referenced is now distributed as a browser add-on that I have been unable to make work on current versions of Firefox or IE. If you have the Sibelius software that is no problem. But if you are trying to share your work with others, their inability to use Scorch may make it difficult for them to understand what you are trying to show them.Powerful software package, very good. You'd better have a lot of free disk space. Loading the entire library of instruments will chew up a lot of storage.

*by A***T on Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2014*

This is a great piece of music software if you want to create scores for bands or just for yourself or students etc. It has some great features and really good library of sounds to back it up. For example. I was trying to set up my own score of Elgsr's Nimbus and found a version in D for organ on the net. I was then able to select the ready made ensemble template with violin x2 and cello x2tracks. Then enter the score and then transpose it all to a different key easily. The mixer allowed me to balance the voices / tracks. Drawbacks? A bit fiddly to correct mistakes and get the correct entry. I wanted to merge voices and did succeed - but found I couldn't have two timing patterns within a bar withou using ties everywhere - which looked naff. It's not good if you are used to using a piano roll data entry but I guess you should buy a specific editor like cubase. Final comment - the light version is great value and very useful for music buffs.

    Not for Beginners - Compatibility Issues
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2015*

I purchased this for my Dad.  He composes music on his keyboard and wanted a software that would convert that to sheet music so he could print it out.  First problem was the software would not load on his IMac with latest OS.  Like others said it kept crashing.  Customer service at Sibelius sent him a link to download product.  This allowed him to load the program finally.  The next problem was the music only loaded the music to the treble clef and not the bass.  Again, he called cust. Support and they tried to help.  They suggested he get a midi to pull the music from.  He did that and still it only loads the treble clef.  There is an app that does the same thing for .99cents.  Keep that in mind if you only need that.  Support was unable to fix this issue and suggested it was a compatibility issue with his keyboard or computer.  After emailing cust service several times, I did get quick responses.  However, because most of the support was done over the phone, support will not take the product back citing their software doesn't have compatibility issues.  If you do your research, which arguably Dad should have done before he had me purchase this for him, you will see that it is a KNOWN ISSUE that this product loads only to the treble clef for a lot of people.  There are videos, tutorials and the like from customers because it is so difficult to get this product to work.  Even with all those resources, and poor Dad tried a lot of them, it just won't work.  So consider us added to the list of many frustrated unhappy people who have purchased this product.
