![]() Sibelius has a feature which allows you to put a video alongside the score if you are composing film music and trying to time everything perfectly. Tempo change is also slick and easy, and dynamics are simple and effective. Changing the time or key signature is also very simple and transposition is almost perfect. It is possible to input notes step by step or in real-time, depending on the requirements. Using a MIDI keyboard is very effective and, if you are a pianist, saves lots of time and effort. Sibelius also has many different ways of viewing what you’re doing, which really helps, though which you prefer using is personal to you. Once you’ve learnt the vast majority of them inputting tunes and chords becomes quite straight forward, being able to add a third or a specific note with the tap of a key. Inputting notes takes time as with any software but there are plenty of keyboard shortcuts to keep you on your toes. This helpline is also free, which is an added bonus. It has an efficient help-line and any problems I had were solved in minutes by a helpful person with a computer somewhere receiving my e-mails, and replying with clear instructions. It is easy to toggle between playing and not playing repeats, and as with most of the playback tools it seems to work pretty well. The repeat tools also all work, and I can insert one and two-time bars without a problem. It also contains many useful features which are hard to find elsewhere, such as an easy tempo change and pre-set markings such as lento etc, as well as a fully functioning pedal feature for piano (a phenomenon which I find difficult to come across elsewhere) and pizzicato for strings. ![]() It was designed, I think, for classical composition and it is quick and easy to write simple pieces in a basic classical style. I’ve tried to compose in many different styles (jazz, rock, ragtime) and it supports most of them fairly well. ![]() ![]() Overall the program is good and has various plus points and useful features. Of course, the more money you pay, the more features you get, but at £99 for a student copy I think it’s pretty good, and definitely worth getting if you’re a keen GCSE student, even if it does have a few glitches here and there. Even the student version, which I’m using, has a huge number of features. U.S.I’m a young composer and recently I’ve been trying to find my way around the most used notation software on the planet: Sibelius.Kansas: a cyclopedia of state history, embracing events, institutions, industries, counties, cities, towns, prominent persons.^ "2003-2004 Official Transportation Map" (PDF).The National Map, accessed March 29, 2011 National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. ^ "Water-Data Report 2013 - 07145500 Ninnescah River Near Peck, KS" (PDF).United States Geological Survey, United States Department of the Interior. It empties into the Arkansas River roughly 3 miles (4.8 km) north of Oxford, Kansas in eastern Sumner County. From there, it flows southeast into the Arkansas River Lowlands. It is formed in southwestern Sedgwick County by the confluence of the North Fork Ninnescah River and the South Fork Ninnescah River. The Ninnescah River originates in the Wellington Lowlands of south-central Kansas. Its entire 56.4-mile (90.8 km) length lies within the U.S. The Ninnescah River is a river in the central Great Plains of North America.
