	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Finale 98 at Epinions.com
		Finale is a music notation program (others include Nightengale, Encore, or its current biggest rival Sibelius) - you use your computer to put music on to the page which can then be played back, printed out, or saved as JPGs or MIDI files.
		To reiterate, Finale is mainly a notation program, not a sequencing program.
		If you're already a seasoned veteran of one program or the other, it may not be worth the extra energy to learn the quirks of one program when you are already used to the quirks of the other.

	Macworld: Review: Music-Notation Software
		Finale 2000 is easier to use than past iterations and remains the most complete notation program available for the Mac.
		Finale's much more limited number pad-entry scheme, on the other hand, forces you to use the program's Tool palette or its many menu commands for anything other than simple note-entry tasks.
		Finale 2000 and Sibelius differ in speed and in the degree to which they let you modify the basic elements of your scores.

	Finale 2001
		Finale is not keyservered; at this time, the only copy available for public use is installed on the PC in the Listening Lab of the Music Library, located in the Jewett Arts Center.
		Finale's default settings tell it to fill in whole rests in each measure that does not contain music, which means that if you tried to print out a fully-formatted score that just didn't have any notes in it yet, all of the measures would still print out with whole rests.
		Finale will automatically jump to the next note when you type either a hyphen or a space (commas, periods, and other punctuation marks are considered to be part of the word or syllable that they follow).

	www.finaletips.nu - Steven Powell Interview
		Finale has gone through two big bursts of improvement, first in the early-to-mid 1990s, when Nightingale came out, featuring, among other things, note-attached slurs, which Finale did not have at the time; and again from 2001 to the present, when Sibelius came out with a streamlined interface and a variety of showy playback features.
		Finale had dutifully created a big chunk of extra horizontal space to make sure that the lyric didn't collide with anything following (although the next note didn't have a syllable of its own) and distorted the visual rhythm of the measure badly.
		Another Finale giveaway occurs with stem length on divisi passages—the "shortened stems" setting, which should be used in divisi passages, only affects quarter notes and half notes.

		I suppose that most of it applies to any program, but these are things that I've found greatly enhance the QuicKeys functionality within Finale, and therefore most of the examples reflect that.

	Finale 2006/2007
		The Finale 2006 upgrade focuses heavily on (impressive) playback enhancements which do not effect the primary focus of Finale 2005 Power, which is dedicated to explaining how to use Finale to efficiently notate music.
		Finale 2007 includes some menu structure changes and the new Linked Parts feature, so there are certain places where instructions are incorrect, but the fundamentals for learning Finale are still intact.
		Finale 2007 has additional playback features, such as the Kontakt Player 2, that are not discussed in Finale 2005 Power.

	"Virtual Drumline" Frequently Asked Questions
		No. Think of your Finale or Sibelius (or other sequencing or notation program) as the "conductor." This program "conducts" the sample software (or your soundcard) what to play and when.
		Both programs may be run as a stand-alone application, or as a plug-in in a host application (such as V-Stack, Logic, Cakewalk, Performer, etc).
		Essentially, what this means is that you are telling your notation program to DISPLAY a certain notehead and staffline, based on the INPUT note used to create it (which is why using a MIDI keyboard is so strongly recommended), and what OUTPUT pitch you wish to hear in playback.

	ATPM 7.01 - Review: Finale 2001
		Finale 2001 adds a Fretboard Editor, which is accessible through the manual chord entry menu.
		I also recommend it for users of Finale ’98 and earlier, due as much to the features introduced in Finale 2000 (which was a substantial improvement) as to the features added to this version.
		Though the program is still Excellent in general, my doubts about Coda’s choice of Internet publishing options, along with my reluctance to pay $99 for a minor upgrade, lowers my final rating just a little.

	perl.com: Program Repair Shop and Red Flags
		The program turned out to require only a minor change to get the report in order, but it also turned out to be a trove of common mistakes--which is wonderful, because I can use one program to show how to identify and fix all the common mistakes at once!
		If available memory is small, the original program might have run very slowly because of thrashing problems; the new program is unlikely to have the same trouble, and might run many times faster as a result.
		Later on, the program would have had to split this string to get at the various fields; this is a waste of time because we have the fields already split up right here and there's no point in joining them just to split them up again later.

	MakeMusic Forum
		You point to Finale as MakeMusic's flagship product, but looking at the sales growth of their other products, it's apparent that this isn't likely to remain the case forever, though it's obvious that Finale's position in the market will remain as important as ever.
		Pity they do not offer a Finale light (with a significantly reduced price tag) without some of the extra bells and whistles like GPO (something I wouldn't be able to use anyway because my computer doesn't have the capacity).
		It comes to a pretty pass when a professionally-produced Finale band part from a major theatre publisher is considered less readable than a hand-written copy.
