Mario2Participant
Then you are one of the lucky ones who can learn new things quickly. Or you are still very young, in which case it works better. Congratulations!
But many Encore users have been working with the program for 30 years or more. As a result, these users are between 60 and 80 years old. You don’t learn new things that quickly.
I bought Finale’s little sister (PrintMusic) 20 years ago. However, its structure is so complicated (for me) that I sometimes need half an hour to enter a simple song text (despite the manual and forum support). On the other hand, I need the tabulator function. This is more than complicated in the other sheet music programs.
In Encore, it’s all done quickly without me having to think about it. Just intuitive.So I will continue to be one of those people who are eagerly awaiting Encore 6.
However, I must also add that as a guitarist I don’t have the same demands on a music writing program as an orchestral arranger.It is the same with MasterTracksPro. I use it to accompany the band during live performances. As such, it is unbeatable. I’ve tried several sequencer programs, but I’ve always come back to MTP.
I still use Band-in-a-Box from time to time. But here you need more computer performance, whereas MTP can also run on a 486 computer if necessary. In addition, I have not yet found a way to create song lists in BaB, as in MTP, which can then be called up as such.Then there is the solo entertainer Merish5. But even here I have my problems, not only because of the price, because in my opinion this thing is totally overloaded.
As I mentioned above, I’m just an old tree that can no longer be replanted. 🙂- This reply was modified 1 week ago by Mario2.
Mario2ParticipantI agree with you. Encore is the finest and easiest to use notation software I ever used. I’am still waiting for version 6 and hope, that Don is on the straight line.
I’m awaiting, like the other guy’s, the Encore 6 release.
Encore runs quite well on Windows 7, so I can still work with it for a while. We’ll see…Mario2ParticipantThat is correct. Spring, and thus the end of winter, begins in Europe on March 20, 2024 due to the leap year.
Nevertheless, Don could give a short update on how far they are with Encore 6, unless Encore will be released in the next 18 days 😉Mario2ParticipantIn Europe, spring starts on March 21. That’s about a week before Easter.

Mario2ParticipantYes, the development is dragging on… But it wouldn’t be bad to at least give a new timeline then. As Don wrote, I thought that Encore 6 would at least be ready by the end of the year.
Mario2ParticipantIn other words, how long does winter last in the USA?
November 20, 2023 at 4:24 am in reply to: Why does Last Post update when there are no new comments? #3206Mario2ParticipantI have to refresh more often, usually three times, before I get the right results.
Mario2ParticipantThanksgiving is probably history. The new date is now winter 23.
In Germany they say: Good things take time. 😉Mario2ParticipantI have heard that this is a problem with WordPress.
I also have to reload the page often to get the latest posts displayed.Mario2ParticipantThanks for your information.
Mario2ParticipantOh yeah, the website has a new look.
There is also a new button called Developement.
Here you can see development steps and screenshots of the new Encore.
It has been implemented very well so far in my opinion.
I also believe that the wait is worth it.Mario2ParticipantDon wrote: On Thanksgiving.
That’s a nice date, isn’t it?Mario2ParticipantYeah, Encore is still alive!
Awaiting for the launch fall 2023.
Mario2ParticipantI would also have an addendum for the naming of chords.
It would be great if you could edit the chord naming within certain limits and make up your own chord sets.
In addition to the delta symbol for the maj7, I would like to add the small superscript o for a diminished chord.
And then I would have a small request: Could one set up in this context for the German-speaking countries the possibility to write the B chord also as H chord?Mario2ParticipantOh that sounds great! Thanks for the information, even though I’m working with Encore 5.0.4.875.
I can’t get along with Finale, MuseScore and Dorico from Steinberg at all. I have to look in the manual all the time. Very time consuming… -
