Finale is the world-wide industry standard in music notation software. Anywhere music appears on the printed page, Finale likely created those pages. Finale helps the choir to sing, the band to march, the students to learn, and the orchestra to raise the excitement level in the latest blockbuster movie. This is the download license for the full version of Finale 2014.

Part of what sets Finale apart is its unique ability to create anything on the printed page. Where other software offers paint-by-numbers solutions, Finale offers complete freedom and flexibility. As a result, musicians around the world rely on Finale to create, edit, audition, print, and publish the widest variety of musical scores.

Finale also offers breathtakingly realistic music playback, and more ways to share music with others.

Twenty-five years in the making, Finale 2014 represents the latest evolution in music notation software, making Finale's signature freedom and flexibility easy for everyone to use.

Finale 2014 offers you new tools

From a clean efficient workspace, to powerful new capabilities, Finale 2014 offers new tools to create your music.

At first glance you'll notice Finale's updated icons, backgrounds, and textures. Beneath the surface improved Apple OS X support provides new features today and a foundation for the future. But this is just a start.

Enhancements in Linked Parts give you more control over items you want to look one way in your score, and another in your parts. Plus SmartShapes, including hairpins and trills, just got a whole lot smarter.

When it's time to share your music, Finale 2014 offers EPUB support (offering instant publishing for e-book platforms like iBook for the iPad) and - for the first time ever - a simple way to share files, back and forth, with users of an earlier version of Finale.
