Finale allows you to flexibly notate and print any type of sheet music, regardless of genre. Create easy-to-read scores. Compose by ear. And share your work. Finale, the world's leading music notation software, meets the needs of anyone who wants to create sheet music. It allows you to create any type of sheet music, from scores ideal for publishing and performance to contemporary music, chord charts, tablature, and educational sheet music, smartly and beautifully.

■Create your own music, however you like.
Move measures, change key signatures, and make other edits in an instant. Notate, arrange, finish, and print any element imaginable. Finale also offers numerous features to assist your creative process, such as automatic drum grooves and notifications when you're exceeding the playable range.

■Enter notes however you like
Enter notes using a MIDI keyboard, computer keyboard and mouse, or import various types of files, including MIDI and MusicXML.
And even when entering notes using a MIDI keyboard or mouse, Finale's unique Human Playback feature ensures performances that are as emotional, phrasing-driven, and nuanced as a live performance.

■Stunning sound
Sound quality makes all the difference.
Finale offers a world-renowned selection of instrument sounds from ""Garritan Personal Orchestra,"" ""Jazz & Big Band,"" ""Concert & Marching Band,"" ""World Instrument,"" and the Steinway libraries, authorized by Steinway. Finale also includes sounds from the Tapspace Virtual Drumline.

Finale makes it easy to print high-quality music

Whether you're creating a lead sheet for a pop song or exploring new frontiers in musical notation, Finale lets you achieve anything you imagine.

■Quality comparable to published sheet music

Customize your scores to suit your style

From music fonts to chord symbols, time signatures to spacing, lyrics to percussion notation, you can freely choose the appearance of your scores.

■Finale as a music education tool

Incorporate Finale into music classes

Finale is also used in music education. By installing Finale in music rooms or audiovisual rooms, you can convey the joy of music to students in a three-dimensional way. Watching notes quickly appear on the staff displayed on an electronic whiteboard and then play back is like magic. Students' hands-on practice of arranging tone and rhythm with their own hands will provide them with valuable experience in actively ""creating"" music.
While you can create teaching materials from scratch to fit your lesson content, Finale also comes with thousands of music education worksheets. These include worksheets for music theory, ear training, music theory, composition, arranging, and jazz improvisation, as well as flashcards and puzzles, perfect for primary education. Each worksheet is customizable, so you can easily create your own original content (worksheets are provided in English).
