Product Information:

Sibelius is designed to notate, edit, play and publish music of every kind, to a high professional standard.  It is quick and easy to use.  The Virtual Manuscript Paper interface has the look and feel of real pen and paper. Sibelius understands many of the rules of music notation and will check that your music has been notated correctly. It is compatible with all music programs that use MIDI files.  Sibelius handles music of every kind - from keyboard/vocal music to the largest orchestral scores, from guitar tab to complex modern notation. Sibelius offers excellent print quality. You can customize many settings from MIDI parameters to publishing house styles. Sibelius 6 Educational is identical to Sibelius 6 Professional, except that there is no printed manual (you get the full manual on the CD and online).

Clear, intuitive design - looks just like manuscript paper on the screen.
Easy to input music using the mouse or MIDI keyboard.  Includes Flexi-time - the unique system for playing in music in real time, which follows your tempo as you play.
Set your own engraving rules in House Style.

New in version 6
Magnetic layout - As you write, everything is given just the right amount of space and collisions avoided – producing beautiful results.
Track changes and compare versions - keeps track of revisions to your score, lets you look back at earlier versions of it, and see what changes were made since. Sticky Comments allows you to leave notes for yourself, or others.
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 - 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 - 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 and fretboard windows - 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.
Easy chord symbols and 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.
Unrivalled professional engraving - produces scores so stunning, they’re virtually works of art. Slurs are now the most beautiful and controllable of any program. Stemlets and beamed rests can be added and positioned instantly, as can arpeggio lines. Sibelius 6 will even include cautionary accidentals automatically – helping you produce performance-ready scores every time.
Sing your music in - a version of Audioscore lets you sing your music in or play an acoustic instrument, rather than playing it in via a midi keyboard keyboard
