What's new in Sibelius 2020.9 Build 107167:

Focus on Staves and Hide Empty Staves:
This release enhances the Focus on Staves feature so you can use both “Hide Empty Staves” and “Focus and Staves” at the same time. This opens up several new possibilities to have scratch staves that you may use to work out rhythms, tidy incoming MIDI files or split out individual staves or even combined staves that you can still use in the parts.
The setting is tucked away in Engraving Rules > Staves and is called “Show hidden empty staves when using Focus on Staves”. When this is checked, you’ll get the existing behaviour, where using Focus on Staves will unhide any already hidden stave. Unchecking this option will enable the new workflow.

Sibelius is the world’s best-selling music notation software for Mac. It is as intuitive to use as a pen, yet so powerful that it does most things in less than the blink of an eye. The demo includes example scores and a demo user guide summarizing the main features of the program. Your free trial also includes AudioScore Lite and PhotoScore & NotateMe Lite, enabling you to transcribe audio and scan printed music to Sibelius Ultimate. Try all of the features and functionality and decide what is right for you.

Read the full changelog

Sibelius is a software application designed for creating, manipulating and sharing music notations. It is mainly developed for composers, arrangers and publishers.

Sufficient documentation and straightforward interface

When you first initiate the program, you can watch a few videos to get familiarized with the Sibelius platform (whether you have used a similar software before or not), view tutorials and some reference guides.

The GUI is very attractive and quite well-organized, as it encompasses a tabbed ribbon, quick access toolbar and a pane in which to preview music scores. It becomes quite clear that all types of users can learn how to handle it, without facing many difficulties.

Creating or importing a new score

When you create a new score, you can either choose from a blank, bass staff or treble staff, or from several categories - bands, chamber groups, choral and song, hand bells, jazz, Latino, marching band and percussion, orchestral, Orff instruments, rock and pop, or solo instruments.

Optionally, you can import a MIDI file created in another music application or downloaded off the web, or a MusicXML file.

Use the built-in sound library and customize notes

In the ribbon you can choose note input (triplets, respell), notations (clef, key signature), text (lyrics, chord symbol), play (live tempo, live playback), layout (magnetic layout, freeze positions), appearance (reset note spacing, beam groups), parts or view.

In addition to that, Sibelius offers a professional sound library (includes over 38GB of professional content), optimization for single monitor use (especially useful when you have a laptop), advanced text and typography options, as well as the possibility of importing and exporting graphics from all major formats.

Evaluation and conclusion

This utility is highly demanding when it comes to CPU and memory, yet this is quite a normal thing when considering the complexity of the app. The response time is quite good, and the interface is professional and intuitive.

Taking all of this into consideration, we can safely say Sibelius is a well-rounded program designed for professionals in the music-creating industry.
