Re: v27 Problem #42 I Think: Aria Player Error

Billy it (Finale 27) will work and it will work well. Plus you don't have to do special tasks 54 times. If I may suggest, do you have a computer savvy person that could come by and make sure the installation is done correctly? Everything is going smoothly now--or I should say for the time being. Ar...

Re: "Edit Player" ARIA Interface Keyboard Plays Bucket Mute BUT

UPDATE: I found Aria Engine update 1.967. Finale is opening. Also, I tried Aria Multi. I now hear the JBB3 bucket mute. Still, the stand alone opens with an error, something about drivers. If this is as good as it gets I'll take it. For the time being. But there is no sound from the trumpet part in...

"Edit Player" ARIA Interface Keyboard Plays Bucket Mute BUT

But there is no sound from the trumpet part in Finale. This trumpet is on a separate staff from the open solo trumpet, dedicated to JABB bucket mute. Nothing. No audio.

Problem #47, If I'm not losing track.

Thank you all.

Re: v27 Problem #42 I Think: Aria Player Error

That error suggests that the JABB samples aren't installed; or at least, they aren't in the place where ARIA is looking for them. Follow the instructions here to check where ARIA is looking for the files; and then check that the JABB samples are in the same place. https://makemusic.zendesk.com/hc/e...

v27 Problem #44: ARIA 1.9.6.7 Wait Till You Hear This One!

Now when I open the project, it tells me it was "created with ARIA 1.9.6.7 and you have 1.9.5.9. Please update." Well! In the Garritan downloads there is no such download as ARIA 1.9.6.7!!! Just the current 1.9.5.9. I should reveal I've had a curse on my life since age 13. I could tell you stuff wha...

Re: v27 Problem #42 I Think: Aria Player Error

Thank you. It's telling me there's a part of this procedure, editing the registry, that has to be done 54 times. In all my decades with Finale I've never had to do something so ridiculous. Like I say, it's a new problem every other day with v27. Things were so smooth for over a decade with Finale 20...

v27 Problem #42 I Think: Aria Player Error

What a piece of garbage v27 is. Unstable with problems almost daily. Spend more time in here than writing music. I have an April 8 deadline and v27 has caused me to fall behind in my work. I've uninstalled / reinstalled countless times. I have the latest Aria Engine 1.9... When I open stand alone I ...

Re: "Nothing but Squares" help and links

It's very weird that Finale 26 should "seek out and destroy" fonts which, at the time it was created, are nothing to do with Finale 26. They're not new versions of Maestro, Engraver, Jazz -- they are new, different fonts with new, different names. Hopefully, it's not deleting fonts that are just "n...

Re: v27 Bug #37: No Undo Button on Toolbar.

Not a bug. There is an Edit palette you can enable on the Window menu that has an Undo button. You can drag the palette where you want it. Most people just type Ctrl+Z, though, so I don't find the palette useful. You can also access Undo and Redo from the Edit menu. I guess I'm the bug! It's just t...

Re: Trumpet Lags Behind and Plays Flat in Wonderful v27

Unless they've fixed it, changes you make to the audio settings won't stick if your system doesn't have a microphone, or if it's disabled. No, that doesn't make any sense. Hi, I haven't disabled mic. But since I went back to direct, v27 has been OK all day. So far. And I've opened and closed the fi...

v27 Bug #37: No Undo Button on Toolbar.

Hello, in EDIT I have selected "allow undo." No button appears on toolbar. This has to be a matter of something simple that I just can't figure out.

Thank you.

Any self-respecting trumpeter will be able to play down to F# easily, but it's true that register lacks power and won't necessarily sound good in ensemble writing.
Cool effect: trumpet section unison, low F#, G, etc.

Very true David. I think Billy May is more into Big Band than Classical, but I don't know ... My experience with Orchestral Players is that, even if you write for Bb Tpt, they play it on C Tpt. Only getting a note out of range, would they switch to Bb. There's a Stravinsky Score we played in the SF...
