Hi Ryszard.

Here are a few links you might want to scan
1.Finale Features
2. Band in a Box Auto Harmonizing Plug_in
3. Other Scoring and Arranging Plug-ins
4. Finale 30 day free trial

My take: Finale may be a good choice for a composer /arranger who likes working in "notation mode", wants to see the full page of the arrangement, wants to use x64 VST2 sounds and would find generating initial harmonies based on a given melody line and chords during composition useful.

Note that I had identified Finale as a possible "phase two" tool when putting together my kit. However, now that I'm into six months of working with the MOX, BB/RB, Cubase and Reason (after over 30 years hiatus from composing and gigging) - find I don't need Finale as my workflow suits my wants.

Happy Holidays.
