Finale Forum

No, I figured someone here must have tackled this if both me and my friend have on different pc's and os.

Hi! I asked this in Finale Midi Issues forum a few months ago and got no reply, trying again: After minutes or hours from starting finale 2011, I always get one of these problems with playback (on both my windows vista and my friend's windows 7): 1. "Midi lock": hitting the stop/pause button stops p...

Hi. After minutes or hours from starting finale 2011, I always get one or both of two problems with playback (on both my windows vista and my friend's windows 7): 1. "Midi lock": hitting the stop/pause button causes the last notes played to continue playing, being stuck like that for seconds at firs...

A last update (problem solved): I was writing to tech support as you suggested, and wanted to refer them to the problematic soprano staff. Then I noticed that it was labled "staff 4" in studio view, because it had no name. So I named it and went on to crop the document to keep only one typical bar w...

Hi peter, thanks for your reply! I haven't tried your suggestion with expressions yet, because I first want to understand why this file's glissandi playback behaves the way it does. I feel that working with the gliss tool is easier, more convenient and intuitive, if only it works the way it's suppos...

Another update! I just noticed that glissando playback is different in different staves! Somehow the Soprano part plays only glissandi that are greater than 1/2 step, and the Tenor plays only the second part of all the glissandi (cutting out the first note and the beginning of the glissandi, leaving...

Thanks, yes I just did, had no effect. Then I noticed all my glissandi are between half-step-apart notes... So I tried a gliss between a 3rd interval pair of notes and the gliss works! But... it sounds like a piano gliss (a succession of 1/2 steps), and I want it to sound like a pitch bend (portamen...

Hi. I know finale is not designated to playback precisely. But I really need to hear my glissandi as precise as possible, as I'm making midi files for musicians and students. And they hardly ever are: Sometimes they play extra notes. Other times they start/end at a wrong pitch. Yet other times they ...

seems like my audio cable is tired. I played with it a bit and suddenly the piano part was heard. so seems like most of the piano part is coming out of the left speaker, and when the cable isn't connected right, i hear only some of the output, but very selectively... is this how it's supposed to be?

Hi, I posted this in beginners but got no reply and figured this forum is probably more suitable... I just reinstalled Finale 2006 and found out that something changed with the midi output. When i playback a file i had worked on just before the reinstall, which has piano part in it, and it worked ju...

Problem solved, thanks!

Hi,

I have a piece in 4/4, and I want to insert an "alla breve" sign at some point, and have the tempo changed to half-time. how do i do that?

Thanks!

nothing easier to try beforehand?

and 3 times, no less...
Strange!

I tried to attach a Print screen of Help>About, but i got this error messege: Warning: imagegif() [function.imagegif]: Unable to open '/usr/www/users/cmp101/finale/forums/files/thumbs/t_about_finale_200.gif' for writing: No such file or directory in /usr/www/users/cmp101/finale/forums/attach_mod/inc...

if this wasn't clear.

I installed the TG Tools with the "No questions asked" option. Is that what you mean by "full version"?

Anyway, I don't have neither a plugin icon, nor a TGTools in my menu. just "Window", and then "Help".

I have Windows XP installed with SP 3.

Any help?

I installed TG Tools, but cannot find it's menu... any help?
