One of my assignments in Music Technology was to explore a software. I chose to explore Finale as opposed to Sibelius. I was tasked with creating a melody (or copy and existing one) adding a countermelody and a percussion part. The piece I wrote was for Trumpet, Trombone, Tuba, and Drumset. Its orchestrated in melody, ornamentations of rhythmic motives, bass line, and a half time feel beat. I titled it Intensity. The reason I call it intensity is because at the beginning of the semester I feel very hands on and intense about staying on top of things.
This software was very user-friendly and pretty simple to navigate. My only issue was figuring out how to add crescendos and how to change tempo. The other issue I had was with playback sounds. I had to adjust the dynamics to extremes just so the balance wasn't off. I still could figure out how to change the tempo until I looked it up. I really enjoyed exploring musescore as well. My biggest issue with musescore is that I couldn't figure a way to edit the instrumentation other that the preset groups.
