The Programme is very good, but unfortunately Avid are not. My thanks to DS Music who have always guided me through Avid's muddles and bad customer service, and worked hard to resolve a crisis or two!

I love Sibelius, I always have. Its only down-side for me is the printing process since it can be rather clunky when printing booklets.
