The app will allow 'seamless' workflow between iPad and desktop
Software company Avid has announced the release of Sibelius® for mobile iOS app, which will allow composers, orchestrators and arrangers with Sibelius subscriptions to move seamlessly between iPad and desktop.
Users can now create, edit, share, and play Sibelius files everywhere via tablet. While Sibelius for mobile is fully featured, there are some notation and layout features only available in the desktop version, making it an integral part of a complete workflow. Sibelius for mobile comes at no additional cost with all Sibelius desktop subscriptions.
Sam Butler, director of product management at Avid, said: 'Music composition is no longer about just sitting in front of a piano or a desktop, working on a score alone. Creators of all kinds have shifted to more remote collaboration and new workflows demanding more sharing and more flexibility.
'Composers, arrangers, and songwriters need easy ways to share and demonstrate their work in a variety of contexts far beyond the traditional settings like studios and practice rooms. Sibelius for mobile opens up new workflows, allowing users to work on their pieces anywhere, to collaborate smoothly with others, and to showcase their work at a moment’s notice - fitting right into the new paradigm of music creation.'
