I'm using Kontakt as my VST instrument. After adjusting an instrument's
volume slider in Kontakt to the desired level, when I play back my score
from Finale, it resets all the instrument volumes to about half way.
How can I stop that?
Thanks,
Tobiah

Re: Placement of computer keyboard
I like how you have the extra numeric keypad on the left so you can
more comfortably do speedy entry with the right hand on the midi keyboard.

Placement of computer keyboard
Just curious how people handle positioning of the midi keyboard and computer keyboard together. My 88-key sits mounted just under the desk where my monitor sits (yeah, huge desk with plywood top) so that my knees fit just under it. I have a hard cover for that keyboard that I can place my computer k...

Slur with multiple curves.
I was copying a popular piano piece into Finale when I came across
this oddity:
I came up with this slur:
But I wonder whether I could have done better,
addressing the extra turn at the left end of the
original.
Thanks!

Re: Beam cross staff notes to home staff
Thanks. I had tried exactly that, but I got this result:
Then, after you posted, I tried it in a fresh measure
and it worked as expected. Weird.

Re: Speedy Entry '=' too far away in windows
You can program any key for that function with TG Tools Menu Shortcuts (I've used both the Zero and/or the T). There exists also a JW Tie Notes Plug-in that you can then assign to any key. I was able to do a menu shortcut, but it behaved strangely. Each time I'd hit the num pad 1 (the key I assigne...

Speedy Entry '=' too far away in windows
I always thought it was poor design, but I recently noticed that on a mac, there is an equal sign (for tying notes) right on the number pad. In windows it's far away on the regular keyboard which really interrupts my flow using speedy entry. I will probably never use the '1' key on the num pad. Can ...

Can't adjust plugin settings during playback
I'm using a Macbook Air M1 with Monterey. I'm using Kontakt to play back my score. While Finale is playing the score, the Kontakt plugin GUI is frozen. It's impossible to tweak any parameters until I pause or stop the playback. This is a huge drawback when trying to get a good score sound output. Un...

Upgrade to 26.3 finished, but version number the same
Finale alerted me to the upgrade, which I finished. When I restarted Finale and checked "About Finale...", it still reported version 26.2. This persisted after reboot. Finale no longer prompts me to update, but when I do a check for updates under Help, it reports that 26.3 is available. I start the ...

Play midi notes a little early?
I have a nice VST flute sound that has a slightly slow attack. When I play it against other instruments like piano or guitar, it sounds like each note is coming in a little late. What would be a good way to have each note for that instrument play a little early so that is sounds more in sync with th...

Re: Make finale open last open file(s) on startup?
Windows or Mac? I think this is a function of the OS. On a Macintosh you have the option of reopening any windows you had open when you restart the computer. A message and checkbox appear when you shut down. N. It's Windows 10. I was hoping Finale had the option. I use Reaper often, and it does thi...

Make finale open last open file(s) on startup?
I actually think it used to do this and I squelched it. Not sure.
Anyway, when Finale starts, I'd like it to open any documents
that I had open the last time I quit. Is that possible?
Thanks!
