Logic Audio Platinum.
Has the most developed Score functions of all the major sequencers, which should endear it to a sibelius user, Its also , for my money at least, the most powerful and useable midi and audio production package in existance.
It is always a personal thing i suppose, and you will hear a lot of people advocating Cubase and Digital Performer as well as Protools.
I can also add , that i have PT and Cubase as well as logic.
Protools is probably the best AUDIO package but lacks real weight in its midi department.
Cubase seems less efficient with processor power and a little more prone to glitches and crashes than logic, especially when running short on RAM .
Logic is the best all rounder.Has the most powerfull midi editing functions, and While it is quite complex, its only coz it does so much, and if one approaches it a stage at a time , its no harder than any other app to learn.
Sibelius V2 is very good, as a music DTP app, and a great improvement over V1, but for all round performance Logic's the one for me.
