The core of this app is brilliant, I love entering notes real time by MIDI-keyboard (if you're not very good at it, you can first tap the rhythm with the hyperscribe-tool and then the correct pitches with the repitch-tool), the 'engine' for those things is very good. That takes time, as Finale allows for more customisation than any other app in this field, it is very versatile many give up on it during this process, but once you have 'set up' the app for you and your needs, Finale shows its strengths. I think the key for using Finale well, you have to make your own templates, and find your own workflow.
