Re: FINALE music writing software.

: I COULDN'T DISAGREE MORE STRONGLY!! I bought that lousy program, and not only did it not work. It is the most confusing piece of garbage I have ever used! Things don't work. Designing guitar fretboards is so confusing, I believe I could have an easier time producing cold fusion. I am a software power user, expert Cakewalk, SAW32, CoolEdit, numerous high end video and audio programs. I have never, ever seen anything, at such a high price have so many bugs in it. Not only did it not work correctly, all my calls (toll calls by the way, there is no "toll-free" customer support) were for nothing. No one could answer my problems and get it working. I have a standard Dell computer (200 Pentium Pro) a Lynx One 24bit/96hz audio card (very highly praised) 128meg of ram and 11gig's of hd space.

: Sorry to burst your bubble, but you sound like you work for CODA.

: Oh yeah, one more thing, they don't tell you when you buy the software, but every so often, Finale will ask you to put your CD back in, just to verify that you are the owner! What nerve!
