Sibelius 7 Academic Teacher is the latest version of the world’s leading notation software for teachers and institutions (please see student of retail versions if you are not a teacher or buying on behalf of an institution – an official school order or ID will be required).
Avid Sibelius is the longest standing and most commonly used notation software in the industry and a common sight in music departments across the world. The reason for its success is the powerful simplicity of its interface and the professional sounding results it yields. If you can write notation then you can use Sibelius - it’s as simple as that.
For those unfamiliar with Sibelius, the concept is that you compose your piece of music by writing the score for each instrument which is then played back on the selected instrument using Sibelius’s specially developed audio engine. Sibelius 7 Academic Teacher comes with a truly massive 38Gb of professionally recorded content, covering an entire symphonic orchestral as well as rock and pop instruments. The huge library ensures you get the sound you are looking for, whether it is staccato violin, muted trombone or fingered double bass; every nuance and tone is there for you to choose from.
With Sibelius 7 Academic Teacher it is even possible to record audio from your own instrument into Sibelius and convert it into score to either print out for the class or to replace with the internal sounds because you don’t have a professional recording studio but want a professional sound.
Many film and TV scores have been composed and recorded using Sibelius alone. It is not only a great teaching aid, a solution to not having expensive recording equipment and an alternative to owning a full orchestra of instruments, it is also powerful enough to deliver a professional result out-of-the-box.
Key features in Sibelius 7 Academic Teacher include:
- A new task orientated interface which introduces tabs to help you through the process of creating score from start to finish. Each feature has an icon and a text description with full contextual help to make common tasks easier to use.
