Cubase or Sibelius to download?

[lawetlatla]

First of all, sorry if this is the wrong place to put this, idk? Secondly, I know I have worded this all wrong but I can't get it out right, so I'll just leave it like this.

Does anyone have Cubase &/or Sibelius, & would be able to send me it a copy/upload it on a file sharing site?

I'm doing GCSE Music & I'm moving on to do Music Tech so I need them (Cubase especially) for that, but I'd also like to start developing scoring skills. I'm in a school band, so I'd like to be able to work out all the parts (it's impossible to find scores for all the instruments online) & just take them to rehersals when finished. It'd make it so much faster.

Thanks if anyone does

(Or if anyone has downloaded a virus free copy online, could they send me a link?)

(Btw Mac versions would be preferable)

Finale Notepad is free

Denemo is an open source program (Win/Mac/Linux)

Asking for pirated software is probably against TalkBass rules BTW

You should buy Cubase 8 instead of looking to download someone's copy. Better to have the opportunity to download updates especially being Cubase 8 is so new and will need time to get it going perfectly. Also when they update to 8.5 or 9 you will be able to get it cheap. If something goes wrong you will have Cubase support to call. You don't have to get Cubase 8 to develop scoring skills. All the earlier versions you can do that and may be cheaper to buy. They didn't really update the scoring capabilities since Cubase 5. Minor changes at best. For much less you can get Finale PrintMusic or Sibelius First to make good sheet music. Both are under 100 if you check around.

Lol I could have used this go getter when I was in the military.

Reaper is a free download (honor system to pay for it after evaluation) and will stand with any DAW available currently, and is both Windows and OSX compatible.

Reaper is a great DAW, a great value, and is cross-platform.

If you're a student, though, look at student pricing. Pirated software is bad, mmmkay?
