AVID Media Composer Ultimate Perpetual License NEW EDU (Digital product)

Empowering Creative Composers

From concert halls to classrooms, Sibelius stands as the leading choice for composers, arrangers, and educators. Experience the easiest way to write and share music with the world’s bestselling notation software.

Compose

Write Music With Ease
Sibelius simplifies music composition, allowing you to work seamlessly on your computer, iPad, iPhone, Android tablet, phone, or Chromebook. Whether you prefer using the onscreen notation Keypad, a MIDI keyboard, or your computer keyboard, Sibelius manages all note layout, orientation, and rest details for you.

Build Up Compositions
Create music for a variety of ensembles, from piano to orchestra, with multiple instrument parts. Enhance your scores with chord symbols, guitar tabs, expression text, articulations, lyrics, titles, graphics, and more, adding the detail and dynamism your music deserves. You can even loop playback to improvise ideas.

Hear Your Music In Stunning Detail

Sibelius comes with a high-quality sample library featuring a wide range of musical instruments, allowing you to hear how your compositions will sound when performed by real musicians. Additionally, you can integrate third-party sound libraries, such as NotePerformer, for even greater flexibility.

Orchestrate

Arrange Parts Fast
The Arrange feature simplifies the orchestration of additional instrument parts from existing ones. Select an orchestration style, and Sibelius will automatically generate new parts based on your sources. You can also “explode” chords across different parts or consolidate multiple parts into one with a single click.

Get Intelligent Import
Importing a MIDI, MusicXML, or Sibelius file into a new or existing score is as easy as a single click. All notation, instrumentation, techniques, and articulations are automatically assigned, preserving the composer’s intent and saving you valuable time. Combine several scores together with control over what’s imported.

Perfect And Review Scores

Sibelius streamlines the process of adapting instrumentation, transposing parts, and adding slurs, allowing you to work more efficiently. Once your score is ready, Review mode enables collaborators to view your score and add comments and annotations without the risk of accidental changes.

Engrave + Copy

Create Parts Dynamically
Sibelius automatically generates individual instrument parts when you create your score and updates them whenever changes are made. This feature eliminates the need for extracting parts or making destructive changes when preparing sheet music for different instruments.

Engrave Intelligently
Quickly create beautiful, professional scores with advanced notation tools and multi-edit capabilities. Add slurs, hairpins, ties, or other staff lines across multiple instruments, and make edits to barlines, expression text, and lyrics all in one action. Sibelius intelligently spaces notes and elements, ensuring perfect alignment.

Fly Through Complex Tasks

Enhance your Sibelius experience with over 140 included plugins and hundreds more available through the user community. These plugins assist with complex engraving, notating, layout, processing, text, and other tasks, making your workflow even more efficient.
