Hi!

Here is my question. I Work with Logic and Vienna Ensemble, but by the way I compose, I need many times to write music instead of going by tapping on the keyboard (especially in orchestral instrumentation). The Logic score editor does not seem practical for this purpose, or at least I can't do it quickly. My idea would be to write in Sibelius sheet music and send that information to the Logic midi tracks loaded with the instruments.
I would like to:

- Synchronize Sibelius 6 position and respond to the transport bar in Logic
- Send the midi tracks from Sibelius to loaded instruments in Logic (with a virtual midi port, I guess)

Anyone know how to do that, for me would be the perfect combination.
Thank you!

2 months late, but perhaps you'll still read it.

ReWire is a protocol to sync multiple audio programs. Logic should be ReWire master, Sibelius should be Rewire slave. It's possible to write the music in Sibelius and do the playback (eg. Vienna Ensemble) in Logic.
