Sib. 7.5: Sibelius First
Posted by William444 - 19 Jun 10:04AM
Good morning everyone.

I am a Sibelius 7.5 user but am being asked to advise a friend about her first music software purchase.

Given the significant difference in price between Sibelius First and the full blown version, could anyone tell me what is missing from First?

Many thanks in anticipation. William.

See http://www.avid.com/sibelius-first/compare
and remember to scroll downwards for detail: it isn't obvious.

Also, Sibelius First is incompatible (will crash) with the pixel-scaling features of Windows on HiDPI displays.

Sibelius First is several versions behind the full product: it is still at version 7.1.3.
