Hi All,

Very new to Finale. The mixer seems to slow everything down when I have it open. Each time I change the score, the mixer needs to reload and I need to wait. Also, does the program playback the score recognizing the smart shapes and expressions? It doesn't sound like it is doing that. Crescendos don't increase and so on.

Thanks loads.

Are you stopping and starting playback with the spacebar? Doing it that way does not honor articulations, etc. Try using the playback control buttons, instead.

I am using the controls. It doesn't sound like theres any difference where the markings are.
