Although there are other worthy contenders in the market, few would dispute that Sibelius Software's eponymous score-writing package is the most advanced product of its kind. For a long time, it was available only for the Acorn RISC OS operating system, but has survived the transfer to Windows and Macintosh platforms with its reputation and user base intact. Version 2, released last year and reviewed in, added some ambitious auto-arrangement and Internet publishing features, along with support for Mac OS X, and remains the notation package of choice for most computer-based composers and arrangers. All instruments make their own particular demands of a notation package, and the guitar family throws up more challenges than most. As well as being one of the few genuinely polyphonic instruments, the guitar also has a wealth of different playing styles and expressive techniques such as string bends, hammer-ons, slides and harmonics. Guitar-based music thus requires a battery of special notation conventions, and is often written as tablature rather than on standard five-line staves. Sibelius G7 £149 pros • Contains all of Sibelius's excellent features for notating guitar music.

• Supports almost every conceivable instrument within the guitar family. • Decent, printed manual. • Can import ASCII tab (sometimes) and publish on the Internet. Cons • Guitar Guide and auto-arrangement features are superficial. • Fretboard can be frustrating to use, and is not verya well integrated into the program. • No dedicated MIDI guitar features.

Summary At heart, G7 is a streamlined version of Sibelius, and that means it's a powerful and flexible package capable of producing professional-quality scores. However, its new features don't entirely succeed in making this power more accessible to guitarists. The full version of Sibelius has always featured comprehensive facilities for notating guitar music in both conventional and tabbed form, but was primarily aimed at composers who are used to working on a piano or with pencil and paper. Recognising that not everyone composes at a keyboard, Sibelius have adapted their flagship program to create G7, a notation package targeted exclusively at guitarists. In essence, G7 consists of a cut-down version of Sibelius, augmented with some new features designed to simplify and streamline score-writing for guitar players.

Most prominent of these features is a virtual guitar fingerboard: as in Sibelius itself, you can still enter note data using a MIDI or QWERTY keyboard, but G7 also allows you to do so by clicking on on-screen frets. Also exclusive to G7 is the Guitar Guide, an Acrobat-based educational resource providing information on different kinds of guitar, playing techniques, and so on (see box elsewhere in this review). The bundle is topped off with Neuratron's PhotoscoreLite, which allows you to scan sheet music and turn it into a form G7 can understand, and Sibelius's Scorch web browser plug-in.

The full version of Sibelius is justly renowned for its 500-page printed manual, and G7's 200-page effort is also very welcome. It covers all of the program's features, it's clearly written and well illustrated, and someone has actually proof-read it, all of which makes a pleasant contrast with some software packages. Installing G7 is straightforward. The first time you load it, you're prompted to enter your serial number, and you also need to register the program within five days; if your music computer is connected to the Internet, G7 will link to Sibelius' web site itself, but you can also register by 'phone.

Past the splash screen and a burst of ear-splitting music (which can, thankfully, be disabled in the preferences), and it's onto the Quickstart dialogue, where you can decide whether you want to open a recent score, start a new one, and so on. If you choose to start a new score, you're given a choice of templates to choose from. These range from the obviously useful (electric guitar tab, classical guitar notation, guitar duos, acoustic guitar plus vocal, and so on) to the more esoteric (mariachi band, anyone?), and you can add or remove instruments from them to suit your needs. The Add Instruments dialogue reveals the most important sense in which G7 has been cut down compared to the full Sibelius: it provides a comprehensive selection of guitars, basses and other fretted instruments, along with a fairly wide range of percussion instruments, but most of the orchestral instruments are missing, and there's no facility to define your own instruments.
