This is a very old version, so MAC users should download it with caution.

Overture was the first notation program to feature a Piano Roll and Continuous Data Editor for MIDI data editing. Overture was also the first notation program to implement VST/AU plug-in support. We've always believed that your sheet music shouldn't just look good, it should sound good too. After all, we create music that can be heard, not seen.

Single window interface
Overture's single-window interface puts powerful editing tools and symbol palettes at your fingertips, so you can spend time composing music instead of searching through menus and dialog boxes. The main components of an overture are contained within views and panels. You can quickly enter notes onscreen using your mouse or computer keyboard, or record a MIDI performance to instantly view it. Most commands can be executed directly on the score with a simple command.

Linear ViewRedX
Overture's linear view lets you edit your music using a single horizontal bar display. You can also view and edit the MIDI data for each bar below the view and synchronize the two views.

We are using TouchRedX
Overture's new touch-enabled features let you work and navigate in ways you never thought possible. Get hands-on and enjoy the touch interface. Swipe to scroll through scores or close panels. Tap buttons and controls like you would a mouse. Click and drag to control sliders and scroll, swipe for quick page turns, and pinch to zoom in and out. Now you can perform all your common, everyday actions on the screen with a personal touch.

64-bit and VST 3 support
Overture's 64-bit support lets you take full advantage of your computer's memory address space exceeding 4GB, and load new 64-bit virtual instruments that require larger memory spaces. You are no longer limited to the size of your sheet music or the instruments you can load.

VST 3 support allows you to use new VST 3 instruments, such as Vienna Ensemble Pro 5. In this example, Vienna hosts a number of plug-ins on the slave computer.
