Re: Dotted quarternotes are played back with no dot

Now the issue has returned, not in the new file though, only in the orignal one. I'm not sure whether I pressed the play button the first time or if I just clicked in the score. Clicking in the score means no human playback is added. As you probably know one has to click the play button for HP style...

Re: Dotted quarternotes are played back with no dot

Strange, I don't have the issue at this moment.

I opened the document, copied the measure in question and pasted it into a new document. It plays back correctly with the Vienna Ensemble plugin. Then I went back to the original score and played it back, no issue there either. 😕

Re: Dotted quarternotes are played back with no dot

How does this file play back for you? It plays back correctly. On the other hand it's only one staff in you score which doesn't seem to be a problem. The problem seems to be when several staves have the same rhythm. I also got this dialog when opening the VST banks and effects to load instruments. ...

Re: Dotted quarternotes are played back with no dot

Thanks for the suggestion, motet.

However no luck with that one either, it still sounds the same.

Re: Dotted quarternotes are played back with no dot

Of course it could be because it's an older document that has been converted from previous versions, a couple of times maybe. Then there seems to be a lot of unexpected things that can happen.

I would try different HP settings--Standard, Classical, Romantic, etc.
I've tried all the different settings normally used for SATB Choir including 21st century.

Re: Dotted quarternotes are played back with no dot

I tried using the Kontakt 6 plugin as well as the ARIA Player and it's still the same. So it's not plugin related.

Seems as if a visit to the Finale Help Center is needed. I guess I need to change something in the playback settings.

Dotted quarternotes are played back with no dot

In a SATB score where all staves have the same rhythm: Playback issue.png If I choose 'None' from the Human Playback Menu all staves play back normally. If I solo one of the staves in the Vienna Ensemble plugin the soloed stave plays back normally even when using a HP style. How do I make all staves...

In the Text menu, change the justification to ‘Center’.

Center text within a text box - how?

I have a document with a text box where the caret - whenever I hit return - goes to the center of the next line. But I don't remember how to do this in a new text box where the text is aligned to the left by default. 'Edit Frame Attributes' doesn't have any options for this and I can't find it in an...

Keyboard shortcuts for tools? I.e Selection Tool, Speedy Entry Tool etc

Are there any keyboard shortcuts for selecting the "main tool" for each group, i.e Selection Tool, Speedy Entry Tool etc? I'm starting to get tired of clicking every time I need to change from one to another.

Only one note is tied

I would expect all notes to have ties when using speedy entry. Why does it look like this?

Re: Contra Bass or Double Bass?

It's always been my understanding that Contra refers to its range while Double refers to what it does. To me that seems to be the most logical explanation. Does anyone say "these notes should be played in the double octave"? Furthermore we have the sub-contra octave. Does anyone say sub-double octa...

Re: Finale changes the plug-in volume on playback

Do you mean this slider? That one doesn't work.

Or rather: I can change the volume but the volume in the Kontakt plug-in still "lives its own life".

Finale changes the plug-in volume on playback

How do I tell Finale to leave the volume knob alone in the Kontakt plug-in?

Every time I start playback Finale changes the volume set in the Kontakt plug-in to -5.7 dB.

Re: How do I delete a page with content?

I tried that but nothing happened when clicking or drag-selecting the small squares and items.

I ended up creating a new XML-file but before doing so I deleted the two first pages instead.

There should be an option for deleting any page regardless of content or not.

How do I delete a page with content?

After importing an XML file into Finale the first two pages with text makes no sense so I want to delete them. However I can't find any option for this except for if the pages are blank which they are not. Furthermore I'm unable to delete the content of the pages so that they will become empty (blan...
