Why are these guys smiling?

Like me, they’re happy to announce that Finale 2012b is now available!

Finale 2012b is a free download for everyone who owns Finale 2012. It includes several new features including automatic range checking, the Finale Lyrics font, EPUB export, a new Aria Player, and more. Finale 2012b also includes more than 60 bug fixes. Visit the update page to see all the details and to download the update.

As I mentioned last month, we’re refining Finale 2012 rather than releasing a new version of Finale this year, so if you’re waiting for the latest and greatest, this is it. Haven’t upgraded to Finale 2012 yet? Log in to view your upgrade options.
