Re: Dynamic control in HP+GPO5
Thanks David, that helped... although it took multiple tries and fighting with the HP settings. Eventually I did get the modulation scale that I wanted. But too bad that the answer is "Don't even try to use that tool, everybody knows it doesn't work!" Given that one can't rely on the MIDI tool's gr...

Re: Dynamic control in HP+GPO5
1. I can't control how many measures I select to be affected by the MIDI tool. I can select one bar, and the tool opens up showing one bar. But if I select more than one bar and then double-click on the first bar, I get a whole bunch of bars opened in the tool, way beyond what I wanted. Yes, you ca...

Re: Play only on Pass x trouble
Wonderful that the problem is resolved. Not wonderful that some programmer made a secret list of expression names that HP recognizes. I will respond to ask if this list is available to the user, and can be added to. It's not a secret at all: https://usermanuals.finalemusic.com/FinaleWin/Content/Fin...

Re: Soft piano playback in Finale 26
This could be a few different things. 1. The first thing to check are the horizontal volume sliders over to the right of the VST Banks & Effects window. What number is the volume slider to the right of your Aria player bank set to? If it's over 100, and the little red light under the Clip column fla...

Re: Garritan instruments not playing
I realize this thread is about Garritan instruments but this info from the NotePerformer for Finale User's Guide may be helpful. The situations described have happened to me more than once with more than one instrument library:

Re: Dynamic control in HP+GPO5
Setting controller 7 to a lower value temporarily and then letting HP perform the dynamics gives me a workaround I can live with for the time being. Because Garritan uses CC#1 for volume/dynamics/sample crossfading control, simply lowering CC#7 won't produce the realistic effect with GPO5 instrumen...

Re: Garritan Personal Orchestra 5
Could you elaborate on how you use the 3-band EQ in the Aria player? I've been really unclear on which settings in Aria I can actually adjust and which are subsequently undone by Finale HP. I use my ears. ;-) That's really all it takes. Some instruments sound great out of the box; others require so...

Re: Dynamic control in HP+GPO5
Jon Burr's "Add dynamics with the Midi Tool in Finale" video should help you:

Re: Garritan Personal Orchestra 5
What about Garritan Personal Orchestra 5? Can someone give me your comments on that program? GPO5 includes a larger collection of instruments than is included for free with Finale, and a MUCH wider variety of articulations. It really can't be beat for a library that costs less than $200. For me, th...

Re: Garritan Personal Orchestra 5
However: I'm unaware of any other choice that's under $150 and works out-of-the-box with Finale. The Virtual Playing Orchestra is free, responds well to Human Playback, and is great for layering with GPO5. Be sure to download the Performance Orchestra version, which uses CC#1 to control volume like...

Re: GPO5 & Keyswitching In Human Playback
SOLVED! I deleted the hidden "Marcato" expression I had assigned, tried the "KS D0" data dump expression again from the library that VSL provided, and that worked. HP now switches from the default Sustains articulation for this instrument to Marcato. Then when I assign the "KS C0" data dump expressi...

Re: GPO5 & Keyswitching In Human Playback
If all else fails, then you can create a keyswitch in an expression via a Data Dump. Have you tried that? I have. Actually, I used the data dump keyswitches that Vienna Symphonic Library created for this exact purpose for their VSL instruments, so I tried both the one for MIDI note D0 and the one f...

GPO5 & Keyswitching In Human Playback
Hello! I've been having trouble with getting the HP configuration that gets installed along with GPO5 to automatically trigger keyswitches. Right now the issue I'm having is that assigning a "Marcato" expression to the horn staff that I populated with "Project SAM French Horn Section KS" inside Aria...
