Re: font sizes for lyrics
I was messing with the change notesize feature and decided I like how my music looks and prints out at 90%, but that reduction also reduces the size of the lyrics font. How can I work around that to keep the lyrics at their original font size? Options Menu Documents Options Fonts Lyrics Verse, etc ...

Re: Files
In Finale versions before Finale 2004 there is only one way: Save as a MIDI file, and use third party software to create an mp3 file from the MIDI file. Or, staying in the audio environment, not using the MIDI file conversion : (the procedure is a bit heavier, but the copy will be faithful to the o...

Re: simple barline question using Measure Tool
My lead sheet has a pickup and it's in there and working, but I can't use the Measure Attributes panel or the Measure Tool to get the first complete bar to have double bar lines at the start of the tune.. This is usually done with the measure tool. Double-click the square handle at the end of the m...

There is an alternative approach which might be useful in some instances: instead of increasing the number of MIDI channels, use staff styles, or define playback espressions to obtain some effects. Since impossible for the same instrument to play with a cup mute and a plunger mute at the same time,...

Need more than 16 midi channels

Re: MIDI Issue
Yes, you would use the printer port for an additional 16 MIDI channels. No, there is no way around using your printer port for achieving 32 channels. Just use the B port on the MIDI interface. Ray Thank you for your very clear answer, Ray. Would you happen to know how things would work if I get a M...

Need more than 16 midi channels
For big band scores, I would like to be able to define more than 16 instruments (considering the doublings etc...). A trumpet section often needs to be divided and each staff should be able to use different sounds : open, tin mute, cup mute, flugelhorn, etc Trombones : open, muted... Saxes : sop, al...

Re: Finale not recognizing the font installation?
Whenever I start up a new composition in Finale '03, and start to write something, the notes show up as œ's and the likes with j's for tails and other strange stuff. I figure it's a font problem, but I've tried going into the options and messing around, but nothing seems to work. Indeed, that's typ...

Re: Unwanted Playback of Figured Bass Library (chord suffixe
I recently loaded the Figured Bass Library in 2002 and it seems to be generating its own playback voicings (similar) to the way chord labels do. Is there any way to turn off the playback of these inserts? If I understand you correctly, you don't want to hear the chords you have created during playb...

Re: 2 Diagonal separation lines between staves
I am wondering how one can get those double separation lines between staves in order to make a full score more legible... :?: Hi, I assume that you mean these double oblique lines under a system when there are several systems on one page.

Re: Optimization Fin 2003
...in Fin 2003, when I optimize, all staves remain where they are, although in some passages, they're empty and I checked the box allowing deletion of empty staves... You mention the fact that the staves to be optimized have to be empty. That's correct, as no notes, no rests (created) should remain...
