Finale Upgrade $79 through 4/3/17

Post by Rick Cornish »

Just got a notice that Make Music is offering Finale upgrades for $79 through 4/3/17.

Enter code NOFOOLIN17 at checkout.

I'm still on v2014.5 and seem to recall some reported issues with the new version. Is it worth upgrading?

Yes. If you don't need the movie window, 25 is pretty much ready for prime time. With 25.3, the major bugs seem to be gone.

Jari's freeware JW Plugs are now in 64 bit as of a couple weeks ago. There's a lot you can't do in Finale without them.
