Sibelius notation software has the same name as the musician Jean Sibelius, also translated as Sibelius, a famous Finnish musician and an important representative of the late nationalist music and romantic music. Sibelius began studying piano at the age of 9 and violin at the age of 14. He taught himself composition and later joined an amateur chamber orchestra. He had hoped to become a violinist rather than a composer. Many believe that the future will place Sibelius's name among the greats of all times, next to Beethoven.

A box will pop up, the default is 4,4. You can change it to 2,2,2,2 (the total is 8).
Which is better, overture or sibelius?
In terms of production, Sibelius is better thanOvertureSimple. In terms of VST, Sibelius supports different sound intensities. In terms of typesetting, illustrations, and especially decorative sounds, Overture does not have these functions. In Overture, there are very few built-in notations, and I have never seen any Ossia score there.
The score produced by Overture feels extremely rough, and I haven’t found a place to export it into pictures yet. However, Sibelius can be used easily and can even be exported into PDF for publication.
