NOTION 3 - 11 to 19 Seats

Easy to look at; Easier to Use -- sleek, intuitive interface and workflow allowing you to use notation, guitar tab, or MIDI devices to craft music of any style, be it orchestral, jazz, or rock. One brand new idea is the newly designed entry palette that can remain docked at the bottom of the screen or move to the cursor right-click of your mouse, a great design that can speed up the workflow of the user. The entire entry screen itself has had a big makeover. The way the score looks and how you can view it, the improved use of space, buttons and tools were designed to put the focus on the score itself. Writing for guitar or bass? An interactive fretboard for both guitar and bass is available, as well an interactive chord library.
Over 10GB of Improved and Enhanced Samples – exclusively featuring the sounds of The London Symphony Orchestra recorded in great detail at Abbey Road Studio’s. These sounds have become very popular within NOTION…now they are even better! The new enhanced sounds use close mic’s to really hear the essence of the instrument, and all of the new sounds are in stereo. Not only are they enhanced; there are more of them. NOTION3 comes bundled with more sounds than any previous version of NOTION. And for those who loved the sounds that were in legacy versions of NOTION, they are included as well.
