“Sibeliua Ultimate feels like a beta version. There are so many things wrong with it that I prefer to go back my ailing Sibelius 3, even if it not supposed to work with Windows 10!
Sibeliua Ultimate is certainlyl not worth the money I paid for it.
For example, drop down menus open widows too wide for the screen: In Appearence > House Style tab, both Engraving Rules and Nore Spacing Rules open sub widows too large for the screen. One of them has to be manipulated until you can see the Cancel button and you can only close the other by hitting Esc on the keyboard.
There are other faults.
If this is the Ultimate, God help what the PenUltimate and AntiPenUltimate were like.
Sibelius Ultimate was very disappointing and very stressful. I don't know what the improvements are over Sibelius 3, which worked perfectly well untill the operating systems kept changing.”
“The only issue I have with the product is that Sibelius is no longer available on disk.
I live in the highlands and our download speed is very slow. It took 22 hours to download the sound files!!
Despite this I recommend Sibelius 8 as a music programme.”
“I'm disappointed to find that the automatic download of plugins doesn't work.
I've always been very pleased with Sibelius, but don't think version 8 is enough of a significant improvement (for me) to be worth the money. I bought the upgrade because I thought the fault in version 7.5 when downloading plugins would be 'cured' in version 8, but it wasn't.”
Dear Dianna, If you log into your AVID Master Account that you setup when you activated your upgrade you will be able to download Sibelius 8.5. You get 12 months of upgrades included so when new updates are released you can update too. If you need any help with this please see the 'support' tab in your AVID Master Account and you will see the support phone number and your support access key. Hope this helps, Jon
