No more tidying up scores
Only in Sibelius: Magnetic Layout takes care of almost every detail of score
layout for you - so effortlessly, you’ll hardly notice. As you write, it
gives everything just the right amount of space and avoids collisions – producing
beautiful results. This one feature saves you up to half your writing time.
Track changes and compare versions
Only in Sibelius: Have you ever written something better the first time around?
The new Versions feature keeps track of revisions to your score, lets you
look back at earlier versions of it, and see what changes were made since.
Collaboration becomes a joy, and you can even add sticky Comments to leave
notes for yourself, or others.
Conduct your scores
It’s time to take to the podium! Live Tempo lets you conduct the playback of
your score to produce a nuanced, musical performance. Simply tap a key on
your computer keyboard, MIDI keyboard or foot pedal, and Sibelius follows
your beat.
Great new sounds – in no time
High-quality playback now needs no set-up at all – just hit the space bar,
and Sibelius plays back using amazing sampled sounds. High-quality playback
is more seamlessly integrated than ever, thanks to the latest technology
from Digidesign’s AIR team
Sync with sequencers and DAWs
Only in Sibelius: Add a live performance to an audio recording, or sync a recording
with your score playback. You can do all of this and more thanks to ReWire
support, which lets you sync Sibelius playback with products like Pro Tools,
Cubase, Logic, GarageBand and more.
Beautiful Keyboard & Fretboard windows
Only in Sibelius: If you prefer using a keyboard or guitar to notation, these
beautiful new windows are ideal. Simply click on the keys or frets to input
notes and chords – or ‘play’ your computer’s QWERTY keys just like a piano!
They’re great for teaching, too.
Easy chord symbols & guitar diagrams
Chord symbols and guitar chord diagrams can now be created quicker than ever
from your computer keyboard, MIDI keyboard or MIDI guitar. They also feature
many enhancements and extra notations, including guitar scale diagrams.
Beautiful new slurs and more
Sibelius 6 lets you produce scores so stunning, they’re virtually works of
art. Slurs are now the most beautiful and controllable of any program. Stemlets,
beamed rests and arpeggio lines can be added and positioned instantly. And
Sibelius 6 will even include cautionary accidentals automatically – helping
you produce performance-ready scores every time.
Sell your scores around the world
Only with Sibelius: The brand new SibeliusMusic.com makes it even easier for
you to earn an income from electronic sales of your scores around the world.
Or you can just share and exchange scores with fellow musicians and Sibelius
users.
Sing in music!
Developed by Neuratron, creators of PhotoScore, AudioScore lets you input music
into Sibelius simply by singing or playing an instrument into a microphone,
then hit a button to put the results into Sibelius.
Faster, neater, scores for students
Only in Sibelius: Magnetic Layout positions almost every aspect of students’
scores in just the right place – dynamics, lyrics, chord symbols and more.
Students can produce smarter scores more quickly for coursework and examinations
– and Magnetic Layout helps teachers prepare scores for class and school
performances in up to half the usual time.
Automatic Reports on student progress
Only in Sibelius: The new Versions feature enables teachers to see and report
on what changes have been made to a student’s score over time. Students can
also add their own commentary with each set of changes. Sibelius 6 collates
these together with a record of changes to generate a student’s creative
diary – ideal for composition coursework submissions.
Exchange comments with students
Teachers and students can now add virtual sticky notes to their scores – to
pass on thoughts and suggestions efficiently, and in just the right places
on a score.
