NotePerformer 5.1

I appreciate your concern for our business, but I assure you it’s unfounded.

Our primary business is not audio production, but to enable users to produce better printed scores for live musicians through proof-listening. Our software provides educational value and a more effective workflow, with the printed score serving as the final product. Our software was made to prevent score creators from being misled by computer playback into under- or overnotating scores, or degrading them by misplaced slurs, accents, or staccato dots.

While today’s sample libraries sound aesthetically better than they did ten years ago, they are not much better for making notation choices. The day our software is superseded by something better, equally affordable, and accessible, by our accounts, could be ten years away, or never. If or when that day comes, you didn’t lose our software, but you gained something better.

My bottom line is, we are not concerned about our business, and neither should our users be.
