Wow, I need to cross-grade from my copy of Mosaic!

Ahhh... but then I'd have a license for Sibelius. Thanks but I'll pass.

I suppose I can always cross grade when Finale becomes a door stop, or resurrect my 8-core in storage in a pinch. I'll keep my money for now. Maybe I'll spend it on Doritos or something... lol

One of my clients asked me to do a rather large project in Finale. He insisted I use the latest version so he paid for the upgrade. Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in! :mumble:

I recently got rid of Soundflower because I was having various problems with it. I switched to Loopback which has been working flawlessly. The upgrade to Finale re-installed (it's version of) Soundflower. Immediately I started having issues with DP loosing clock sync, even when Soundflower was not being used. I managed to find all the Soundflower components and trashed them and all is back to normal, but it was a major PIA. :mumble:

That is really good to know. Thanks for posting this, and I'm glad I looked.

MLC, where is "Doritos" with respect to your current scoring needs? Not ready yet?

I haven’t tried it. F2014.5 is fine. I’m not unhappy with that version and see no need to fu#% w/Doritos at the moment.
