What is SIB file?
The SIB file extension is associated with the Sibelius music scoring software. This file type is used to store musical scores and represents one of the main components in the software. A SIB file contains data in the form of metadata which is arranged according to a specific structure and syntax. This data is stored as text elements, such as clefs, notes, ties, chord diagrams, playback information, articulations, voices, dynamics, annotations, texts etc. [ ⏩ ] SIB file extension

How to convert the file from SIB to S7?
To successfully convert the SIB file to S7, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.SIB). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case S7 (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than S7).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. SIB to S7. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting SIB files to S7 files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension S7, while before this step we had the SIB file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new S7 file, or not.
