    5 out of 5 stars One Stop Music Transcription for Songwriters   September 2, 2008
    J. C. Snedeker (Winchester, VA)
    Are you a songwriter who wants to write notes for your melody, add some lyrics, hear the song played back, print it and save it as an mp3 for easy sharing on the web? If so, with this tool your search has ended. Excellent tutorial videos and help included. Many operations are intuitive just by reading the text in the upper part of the screen.


    3 out of 5 stars Where are the grace notes?   August 30, 2008
    Stacy R. Curro (Atlantic Highlands, NJ)
    For the most part Finale Songwriter was very good. The computerized instruments that allowed me to hear my music before I printed it was great. It was not completely the same as a real musician, but I know that will never be possible. The note placing on the staff was so easy and allowed me to write chords so much faster than by hand. Many of the advanced techniques that I wanted to use such as grace notes were not there. I expected all Finale products to have these features. I was severely disappointed when I found that these features were missing. It is very frustrating to me to purchase Finale Songwriter just to find out that I need to purchase the more advanced, more expensive Finale.

    Writing music is so easy with Finale Songwriter software. I wish I'd found it sooner. Thank you Finale.


    5 out of 5 stars Sure beats transcribing by hand - simple to use (relatively)   July 10, 2008

    Speaking as an amateur musician who takes songwriting very seriously - Finale SW writes my charts flawlessly. The interface for manually editing is simple to use, albeit time consuming. I mention this not as a fault of the software but as a warning that if you play your midi device as I do, not well, there is a lot of manual editing after.

    I do most of my stuff on this using the manual entry features. I get faster with practice and the charts it produces are beautiful.

    I've tried many programs and this is by far the best I've used.

    An additional benefit I'm sure not intended by Finale; My keyboard skills are beginning to improve as I try playing more acurately thus reducing the time spent correcting.



    5 out of 5 stars Software for the upcoming songwriter.   May 19, 2008

    This is such a wonderful program. It's easy to use, allows you to print and create mp3's of music. As you write the music for any number of instruments you hear those instruments play the notes you selected. All in all the best music writing software for the money on the market today.
