You’re right, but here in Germany there are still 23 days until the beginning of fall. 😉

I can understand your frustration very well, but I can’t do anything about the current situation. Don’s communication leaves a lot to be desired, I agree, but that’s no reason to discredit Don.
I for one am used to waiting and stalling during the GVOX phase. An update was also promised here, but I don’t think that was ever planned.
Under GVOX, however, Encore was available to buy at a crossgrade price, which I did in 2014.

I’ve been using MusicTime and Master Tracks Pro since 1995. I’m still using Master Tracks Pro and Don promised to update MTP too.
MusicTime was replaced by Encore and I can currently work properly with it under Win10
As you can see, I have remained loyal to Passport for 30 years.

The only thing that could happen if Encore 6 is released is that we will all be disappointed by the new Encore because it is no longer the “old” one…

Mike, thanks for the post!
I also think it’s unnecessary and inappropriate to judge Don and his work. After Gvox, he offered to continue the work with Encore and Master Tracks Pro, especially since they were his babies with which he celebrated great success in the early 1990s. I remember being 30 years old and watching the launch of Encore with wide eyes at a music fair.

And let’s be honest – for most of us, Encore is much more than just a piece of software. It is a way of life and a beloved companion that has accompanied us through the decades of our lives.

The question is not so stupid. Who knows what happens when you install new software?

But I assume that Encore 6, when it comes out, will not change anything in “old” installations because it will not be an update of the old Encore but a completely new program. Always assuming we are talking about the Windows platform here.
I used to have several versions of Encore 5 running side by side on my Win7 computer without them affecting each other.
The more important question would be whether the old Encore files can be opened with Encore 6 and how far back this compatibility is guaranteed.

Andre was quicker. 🙂

The horizontal scroll bar is only available in the Mac version. On Windows, the zoom works as follows:
Click on the small triangular arrow next to the magnifying glass.
In the menu that now opens, you can choose between ‘Fit Page’, ‘Fit Width’, ‘Actual Scale’, ‘Constant Scale’, as well as zoom level ‘x2’, ‘x3’, “x4” or ‘Custom’.
With the zoom levels, a mouse pointer in the form of a hand is displayed after the respective setting. If you click on this in the score, the desired setting is applied. With Custom, you can enter the percentage of magnification directly, click on OK and then click on the hand symbol directly in the score. This is actually quite simple.
You can also set the size of the staves in the Staff-Sheet menu. Select the size 1, 2, 3 or 4 in the ‘Size’ column. The default setting is 3.

Thanks Andre. My mistake…

Yes Toni, the folder must be called “Devices”.
In my excitement, I hadn’t looked closely.

Hi,
I have a solution to make the 16-bit program MTPRO6 run under Windows 10. I have tried it and it works including saving.
