Sibelius First’s standout features include:
- Task-oriented user interface
- Enter notes: Choose from scanning, transcribing, or MIDI import to get your ideas into Sibelius First—now with MusicXML interchange for transferring your music into and out of other applications
- Sound Library: Includes a sound library so you can hear your compositions played back on sampled instruments
- 64-bit support: Address more than 4GB of RAM
- Magnetic layout and dynamic parts let you produce and tailor your scores to suit various musicians
- Sibelius First scores can be added to the score library on the Avid Scorch app (sold separately)
- New social media and video sharing options: Users can export compositions as videos and publish their work to social media websites (YouTube, SoundCloud, Facebook) along with traditional print, email, or audio exports
