In playback, My metronome is counting as if in 2/4 but I am in 4/4. It is counting 2 beats per bar when i am clearly in 4/4 and I have set the tempo to quarter note = 110. on playback each bar is being counted in 2 beats so everything is moving in double time. I'm syncing this to video so it's important that it's counting properly. How do I fix this?
thanks!

That sounds really odd.

To find the culprit we may need to see an actual Finale document.

I suggest that you attach a (small) Finale sample document here in the thread.

This forum does not accept attachments with the Finale file name extension.

Before you can attach a Finale document in this forum, you must compress it, e. g. as a .zip file.
And the file size must not be more than max. 100 KB.

I keep trying to compress it but it can't get smaller than 100 kb.

Reduce the document to just a few measures.

Also, to reduce the file size you can delete items in the Expression Selection, in the Articulation Selection, in the Chord Suffix Selection, &c.
