Viewing music on the iPad frees musicians from sorting and
managing printed music, and makes it easy to bring thousands of
pieces of music to practice, rehearsals and gigs. Unlike the
printed page, this music can play back, facilitating learning and
selection of new titles. Music for the iPad app can be created
using Finale as well as with the free, downloadable Finale
NotePad.
“We’re extremely excited to be showing our iPad music notation
app this week,” said Karen van Lith, MakeMusic CEO. “Enjoying
Finale scores on the iPad offers a glimpse of the technology
solutions we have in store for musicians.”
On display this week at NAMM, the music industry trade show in
Anaheim, California, the app will be available to the public later
this year.
More information can be found from Finale’s Community page,
which offers access to the Finale Blog, Forum and links to Finale’s
presence on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
