I have big problems importing rhythms into Sibelius when they involve any kind of tuplet, even triplets (by now I'm sure that this isn't a problem in the XML file but in Sibelius's importing)--the other obvious problem with Sibelius is that the parts don't get grouped correctly, (though this isn't as serious, I put in a way of getting around this--I'm putting in a growing list of "kludge" variables to get around these problems).
I'll put a list of these in the documentation as I find them--I wouldn't trust Sibelius at all at the moment. So far it seems that Finale (with Dolet) imports all of the basic things without mangling them...

Finished the MusicXML output and it should also run in Windows now.
Unfortunately, there are some issues importing tremolos, harmonics and a few other things into Siblius and Finale...
Cool, that sounds very good, I haven't really tried out the MusicXML using fomus, yet. But from other experiences I made, I believe that neither the import into Finale nor Sibelius (seems to be worse) works without issues that one would categorize as being solely cosmetic. : ( 5-Tuplets seem to be too hard for Sibelius and with Finale I don't remember what (nested tuplets?), but there has been something else as well concerning the rhythmical structure (I only used the demo version, so maybe...).
If one concentrates only on the rhythmical framework, time signatures, durations, tuplets, beaming and pitches, are your experiences with Finale or Sibelius pretty okay? _______________________________________________ fomus-devel mailing list fomus-devel@common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fomus-devel
