Finale Forum

Bummer. Thanks everyone!

Seems like a significant oversight at this point in Finale's development.

Layer 2 is too close to layer 1. Is there a way to adjust settings, rather than manual adjustment of every occurrence?

Thanks!
Dan

Zuill, you just changed my life. Thank you.

May you have tons of friends, may your pets never die, and may your AC unit run for the next 20 years.

You mean Output --> Source in the second screenshot? Only option is Speakers/Headphones. When I do "Test Audio Output" it works. I get a nice loud test tone.

And when I open my Mixer window and play back, it shows levels.

More info, if this helps:

Everything was fine, and I tried to switch to MIDI out so the score would play through my Clavinova (which has some nice sounds I wanted to use).

But it didn't work, and now nothing seems to work. When I play it, the cursor moves, but no sound.

Any advice? Driving me crazy. Thanks!!!

Thanks, Peter. I see the library loading. It looks like playback effects on "accel" are set to "None." How do I make changes to that expression for HP?

Thanks,
Dan

I've been using a template for several years that I put a lot of time into tweaking. I want to start using "Export Audio" to create simple demos. All good for dynamics and tempo markings, but I long ago deleted the original "rit" and "accel" marks. I've since added my own, but text-only - no HP effe...

Ah, I see. Fixed.

Thanks!

When I select the measure tool, I'm used to seeing the two handles at the top corner of the measure. The top handle is for resizing the measure, and the bottom handle is for beat spacing. But lately as I'm creating worksheets, the bottom handle sometimes randomly disappears. Does anyone know why thi...

Peter,

I understand the distinction, but I don't mind either way. Both look ok to me. I just want it to look generally centered.

Does JW Change work with Finale 25? It's not working for me.

PS - rather than manually dragging each measure...

Here's a worksheet I'm working on:
You can see that the default note spacing isn't consistent. I'd like every example to be at the exact center of the measure. Is there a setting that forces all notes to the center of each measure?

Thanks!
Dan

Hmm, I like the sound of that last one. I'll have to remember that, thanks. #finalehacks

What do you mean exactly? I tried doing it manually, but how do I get around the key signature - clef order?

Aaaaaand it's beautiful. Thanks!

Thanks Mike! Exactly what I was looking for.
But as you can see from the example, I'm going to need to do it more than once. Does this plugin support that? "Coda" seems like a single-shot solution.

Edit: never mind. The answer is yes.

clef.png I'm creating theory worksheets in Finale. As you can see above, I want two exercises per line, which I accomplish by making three measures, Staff--> Cutaway to hide the middle measure. I can force the clef to show in the third measure, and I can make it after the barline... but Finale plac...

The reason they are doing away with the public folder is because you can now share any file, regardless of where it is in your dropbox folders. Just right click and copy link.

I'm referring to a regular-ol' typing keyboard. It would be nice to have custom buttons assigning macros. Like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-G510s-Gaming-Keyboard-Screen/dp/B00BCEK2LU/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1483841597&sr=8-11&keywords=programmable+keyboard 18 custom buttons, which can b...

Oh man. I am so stupid.

"Where's Finale in the dropdown??"

Just curious, do any of you use programmable keyboards for your macros?

I have a number of macros I'd like to use for ease of workflow, and I'm considering a programmable keyboard to assign these to custom keys.

Thanks,
Dan

When I try to submit a ticket on the "new and improved" MM site, I get this screen: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/175 ... upport.png

Anyone else having this problem?

PS - this is just a screenshot, so it's a partial window

Charles, I read that forum thread you linked. I do agree there are some good points regarding links not being long-term. I also know that there are real, tangible issues regarding this forum and available bandwidth <> cost. Hopefully 250KB will be enough for the time being. Certainly I think that's ...
