 Even Better than before... Sep 27, 2005
By M. Aschkynazo
See my previous review for G7 (from before Kontakt update.)
This is a great program, with no bugs to speak of, and even faster than it was. I'm now at the point where I can do a fairly involved lead sheet in a half-hour. It's a fine teaching tool, and its font choices are all you could ask for. You can arrange 4 instruments (the most I'd use) easily. It will play back my arrangements so I can check for accuracy. It's completely in sync with my Mac. It's a pro tool.

 Excellent Sep 25, 2005
By John K.
"John"
DOES handle 6 channel midi guitar input - I don't know what the previous reviewer's problem was. Also the manual is excellent, the printed output is publication quality. handles tab and notation and converts back and forth with a mouse click. Also imports ASCII tab files of which there are thousands for free on the Internet. Scanning works but you must be careful to use clean printed originals. Aldo Kontakt is a nice set of guitar and pop music oriented sounds. Overall very good program - well designed and a good value. Far and away exceeds its competition in this category - Finale Guitar.

Not just for Guitar, but for all fretted instruments and more Oct 28, 2007
By Rachelle Ayala
The Sibelius G7 supports all sorts of fretted instruments, including banjos, steel guitar, dulcimers, mandolins, gamba, requinto, sitars, ukulele, vihuela, dobro and lute. In addition you can add keyboards: piano, electric, synthesizer, honky-tonk, percussion: all sorts of drums, cymbals, tambourine, wood blocks, handbells, too many to list, string instruments: treble and bass clef, and voices.
For the guitars and fretted instruments it easily converts from notation to tab and vice versa by selecting and then copy/paste. You can also edit the tab properties to your liking, and watch the playback on the fretboard.
There are also preconfigured staffs, that have the most popular combinations of instruments, even a mariachi band is included.
Note entry is easy and intuitive. You can use the mouse, or keyboard, and also click on the fretboard. The documentation and tutorial are clear and easy to follow, and within minutes you will be composing or transcribing some music, arranging to fit your band or ensemble, and printing it out or uploading to the Sibelius G7 website to share with others. The printed output is nice looking too and comes with several styles including Jazzy and Handwritten. The program itself seems stable on my Windows system, unlike Noteworthy which caused the computer to hang (losing my work when I rebooted).
Finally, G7 will meet most of your needs for small ensembles and bands, and unless you are composing a symphony, you won't need the really expensive Sibelius Professional edition. The price is right and it's fun to use. The included Kontakt sounds emulate the fretted instruments pretty well. I should also mention that it does notation for guitar special effects like pull-offs and hammer-on, bends and releases, slides, trills and vibrato, tremolo arm bends, slides and scoops, as well as notation for chord slashes and strums. Chord diagrams can also be easily created above the staff. There is just so much included, you won't be disappointed.

G7 a guitarist / musicians dream Apr 10, 2007
By Follower of the great I AM
The program is very user friendly if you know some music theory though not a lot. The scanning part of the software works great but requires a high quality scanner and there is still some clean up required of the user. The abilty to compose and publish music is great. I find it useful to listen to an unknown piece (using the midi player) and learn to play it. It will transpose and print out very useable scores of either notation or tablature. Great piece of software.
 Useless! Feb 18, 2011
By Snu Snu
I am in pro audio and know software very well. This thing doesn't work. It is totally non-intuitive and was a waste of money!
