Re: Help setting up two Garritan Aria Players in Logic Pro X
It's possible this is something you need to configure in Logic, rather than the ARIA plug-in itself. You might get a better (and less belated) response on a Logic forum.

Re: Official Word on 27.4 Autoupdate installation error
Yes: this issue has been fixed by the 27.4.1 update, so I don't think this needs to be a sticky anymore.

Wine is a sort-of emulator that allows Linux computers to run Windows programs.

Re: CD 2 for Install Fails - Garritan Instruments for Finale
I am new to Wine and having a problem loading the second CD when installing software. I am installing Finale 2008 (music software) Wine? So you're installing the Windows version of Finale 2008 onto Linux? Your signature says you have Finale 2014. Any reason you're not installing that? FWIW, my copy...

Re: Auto save
It's worth saying that "iCloud is not a backup". It doesn't do versioning; and you can only recover deleted files for 30 days. You can't recover overwritten files, for example.

Re: finale and cubase
Regarding Dorico, I've heard good things about it and how it integrates better with Cubase compared to Finale, but I haven't tried it. There's no specific integration between Dorico and Cubase yet. You can drag MIDI directly from Cubase into Dorico (or from any other app that supports dragging). An...

Can you post the XML? Perhaps there's something in it that will explain it. At least open it up in a text editor and search for "121".

Re: 8va sign
this bottom-alignment seems like something someone at MakeMusic made up. Or maybe it was the SMuFL folks at Dorico. I've always thought that aligning the line to the top of the characters (and to the bottom for bassa) looks much better than some random mid-point. Screenshot 7.png Screenshot 6.png I...

Re: Export Manuscript Texture Setting to PDF????
Doesn't this mean that the notation is now bitmapped? Obviously, the image is a bitmap, but it would be better to keep the music as vector.
You could add the image as a background object in Illustrator.

No; but there are ways to add a tinted background to a PDF. Some PDF editors will do this (e.g. Adobe Acrobat, Master PDF Editor). As you're on a Mac, I've written a short python script that will add a tint panel to a PDF, which, you can put in an Automator Quick Action or a Shortcut.app workflow. (...

Re: Part editing workflow
I'm not aware of any easy solutions, having spent over 10 years trying to do this sort of thing routinely in Finale. Either you have to create a combined separate document for the parts, (with the risk of inconsistencies from the score); or just waste loads of paper. Or possibly do actual old-fashio...

I checked all the templates for my own copy of Finale v27.4.1.146 - that is, I opened each template, went to the File Info chiclet, and looked at the field for “Score Name’ Insert. No sign of ‘a piacere’ anywhere. I found it in a new document based on the Choral (Finale Maestro) template. Screensho...

Re: Graphical Interface for CC Values like in a DAW
No. I don't even know if the plug-in framework would be able to provide that functionality.
MIDI Editing is just one area where Finale's tools have not been updated in decades, while other apps have implemented powerful useful functions.

Finale takes its paper sizes from the pagesizes.txt file.
