They have a number of practical uses: creating a reduced orchestra version, a MIDI sketch file, or a piano reduction were among some of the ways to make use of this feature that I mentioned in the review of the 2022.12 release. Score subsets, you’ll recall, are, as the name implies, versions of the full score that contain a subset of the complete instrumentation, each of which can be created and retained independently of the full score and the parts. It’s a double-edged sword: on one hand, it’s exciting to get access to something that’s new on the other hand, we often have to wait for a future release cycle for the feature to become more generally usable. This was true for score subsets, a new feature in Sibelius 2022.12. It has become evident with the ongoing regular releases of Sibelius that the first iteration of a new feature is rarely the final say on the matter.

Sibelius 2023.2 also fixes some bugs, including one particularly irritating problem introduced in 2022.12 as a side effect of score subsets, where an empty blank part remained in the file after deleting an instrument. The Sibelius 2023.2 release addresses a couple other areas, too: the default handling of tuplets is refined and the ManuScript language gains the ability to export audio in all of the bit depths and sample rates that Sibelius supports. Dynamic guitar staves gain independent elements as well.

Specifically, score subsets can now have layout and note spacing that are independent of each other, and of the full score.

This release, the first of 2023, improves upon two major features introduced last year: score subsets, which first appeared in the previous release (2022.12) and dynamic guitar staves, which appeared in the 2022.7 release. Avid has released Sibelius 2023.2 for desktop and mobile.
