Re: Transfer current work to a new computer

Do I have to transfer each tune in Finale by itself or can I transfer everything at once?
I'm not sure what to do.

Re: Writing for piano keyboard

Thanks for the replies.
What I have is an 8 part choral piece that I want to have a
piano-for-rehearsal-only system. This is where I tried the piano reduction tool,
but was not satisfied with the outcome.
I had some success using layers, but still had problems with overlap in the voices.

Writing for piano keyboard

Finale V25
Windows 10
ASUS Laptop

I've looked, but can't find a video or a tutorial about writing for keyboards, piano first.
Is using layers the only way to get a decent copy?
I've tried piano reduction and the result is not acceptable.
Any direction will be appreciated. Thanks.

For percussion in general, Tympani and Bass Drum specifically, how does one indicate which mallets to use and get that sound during playback? (And Percussion Font is out of the question. Will it ever be updated to work???)

Ok, Zuili.
I think I can post some of the score. The first time I tried, it was too big.
A couple issues here are: The is a pause in measure 5 and it slows down in measure 14,
Hope you can figure something out.
Thanks.
