Pappano took Beethoven's tempo markings to heart. Despite the favourable appraisal it received at its premiere in 1801, nowadays the composition owes most of its fame to the overture, which customarily features a slow introduction ( Adagio) followed by a vivacious fast movement ( Allegro molto con brio). “C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe” -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -WindowStyle Hidden -file “\\YOURMDTSERVERDNSGOESHERE\DeploymentShare$\Applications\Avid Sibelius Sounds 7\Sib Sounds.While not being Beethoven's only attempt at ballet music, The Creatures of Prometheus is the composer's most significant encounter with the genre. Ultimately though its just a copy and paste operation with the addition of a registry key so lets use some PowerShell to get this software deployed!įirst up you will need a working knowledge of the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (the basic notion of this guide will work with other deployment technologies as well like SCCM) the contents of the ZIP file in the download below (a PowerShell script and a reg fragment), the silent install command also below and the sound files downloaded and installed using the Avid provided installer onto another computer.ĭeploy Sibelius 8 Sounds (858 bytes, 780 hits)

Well as it transpires their guide is correct in all respects however, as it states in the clear there is no silent install command for the sounds.

When you get to the sounds the documentation (again in my opinion) (which can be found here – ) is flaky at best not to mention the confusion around version 7/7.5/8.įor example the install path is listed as C:\Program Files (x86)\Avid\Sibelius Sounds\Sibelius 7 Sounds, well Sibelius 8 is 圆4 only so do we put it in the C:\Program Files folder instead? The registry entry is listed as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Avid\Sibelius Sounds\Sibelius 7 Sounds\ContentPath – well again do we update this to be ‘Sibelius 8 Sounds’?

Now deploying Sibelius it’s self in a silent manner is (in my opinion) pretty well documented at this link –.

So first things first….the title of this article is misleading thus far Avid do not seem to have released a sounds pack specific for Sibelius 8 as you will see on the website when you login in ( ) the only option is for the 7.5 sounds pack.
