Compatibility
Scoring Express is built for the latest versions of Sibelius Ultimate, Dorico Pro, and Finale.
Minimum supported versions (Scoring Express version 1.5):
- Sibelius Ultimate 2020.3
- Dorico Pro 4.3
- Finale 27.3
Use with earlier versions or, with the mid-tier products like Sibelius Artist or Dorico Elements, is not recommended nor supported.
Scoring Express templates and manuscript papers are designed for North American page sizes, but they will look just fine switching to the nearest ISO equivalent (i.e., A4) with a quick toggle in:
Sibelius – Layout > Document Setup > Size;
Dorico – Library > Layout Options… > Page Setup
Finale – Document > Page Format > Score… and Document > Page Format > Parts…
In Finale, be sure to go to the Page Layout Tool and Redefine Pages for the score and/or parts you wish to reformat to your new page size.
Depending on your tastes, in certain circumstances you may prefer adjusting the staff size by a fraction of a millimeter or two in either direction as well.
License
Can I use Scoring Express on more than one computer?
Yes! A purchase entitles one person (you) to use it on one computer at a time, on as many computers that you personally use. Unless you have extra limbs, that should suffice nicely.
Can my buddy who shares my computer use Scoring Express?
No! Well, there’s no way to technically prevent it. But please ask your buddy to purchase his own copy.
My buddy wants to use my copy of Scoring Express. Can I send it to him?
No! He should purchase his own copy. Let’s all be buddies!
Can I change the default Scoring Express files — customize, modify styles, add instruments, etc.?
Yes! That’s the beauty of it — it’s totally customizable for your own use. You can change it straight away or keep the original handy and duplicate it for your own use. If you need to, you can always re-install the default Scoring Express files again.
So, once I do that, can I send those files to my buddy?
You can share score files with anyone you like, and these files may inherently contain many settings derived from Scoring Express. But please encourage your buddies to purchase their own copies of Scoring Express so that they get the full benefit of the package and easy compatibility with your files — including all the fonts, house styles, and manuscript papers that come with Scoring Express.
