I too used finale back in the day it was introduced. I remember bonny J. in Hollywood who had the task of debugging the score programs. She would finish one program and recieve the task to another. Encore for example was an excelent program for the pc platform. I've tried many at that time, including mr. T ect..
Common sense said finale is the dedicated program that ultimately would take center stage. So I learned it also for future use and on the way to composing. Then I ran into treacherous hurdlles of ease of use, studio dedication, all around familialarity of key commands, and the dreadfull notes lock that made the score look very presentable. I then went back to logic and cannot tell you how easy and accomplished my work flow has been. there is numerous ways of using logic because of its versatilities of the other side of the program, e.g the envirnment,midi,audio. ect..
My compositions today are in the neighborhood of hundred of pages at a time.
With full playback, feel, and versatilities of score exstraction. I'm not trying to be a nusense by all means, but i'm greatful to the germans that offer us a real program that can do it all. And a forum to discuss it with. DG is the only man that had the guts to discuss cubases side of score that i know of. I'm not going to repeat it. But am i the only one trying to confirm. Even in a program that i dont even use ? Audible, inaudible notes. Gohst notes, invisible notes ect.. there is no comparising to the publishing printing programs, of what a dedicated studio full sequencing, score program can do with it all. One can also look at the present situation of all the advanced samples out there today. And no one has had the time to create dry samples of true sounding instruments, except VSL. In the world mind you. What do people in the music business do besides try to hit the lottery from day to day. ??????? Anyway thanks for the great info, just to mention.
