Finale
Finale is professional music notation software from MakeMusic used by composers, arrangers, musicians and students to create, edit and publish sheet music. It supports complex scoring across multiple instruments, handles everything from lead sheets to full orchestral arrangements, and includes playback with customisable sound libraries (including Garritan instruments). Finale is the industry standard for music engraving in professional studios, educational institutions and publishing houses worldwide. The app integrates with notation plugins, MIDI controllers and digital audio workstations.
