Zuill, am I remembering correctly that you have a way of importing an audio track for the purpose of transcription, one that matches a Finale file measure for measure? I have a .wav file.

Once you load the file (it's linked to the file), in order to synchronize the file to the measures, you'll need to use the tempo tap. I find that turning off HP helps, as HP does modifications to the tempo that are not desirable.

I was able import the audio and set the click track. The music has repeats with endings, so when I get to that point I guess I'll have to doctor the audio file to play the first ending and then immediately the second ending, and reload it, but it will be a while before I get there.

Thanks--this is exciting, like finding a new toy I never knew I had!
