Hi again,
When I playback a lengthy undamped piano arpeggio of say 6 bars, by the time the last bar is near, the first notes may be heard to switch off. Am I noticing Finale's polyphony limits here? Or is there a setting that I can tweak, perhaps? I am using Garritan Instruments for Finale Steinway.
Cheers,
Hector.

it could be one of two things:
1) yes, you might have reached that instrument's polyphony limit (which can be adjusted in the Aria player if I recall)
2) many instruments have a normal decay, so you may simply have reached the point where that instrument won't sound anymore because it's beyond the length of the sample itself.

Thanks, Michel. I will take a look around in the aria settings.
I will also test out the music on a real piano to see how long all the notes will sustain at various dynamics.
Cheerio,
Hector.

remember to compare with the decay of the sampled piano, not a real piano.
regardless of what you write or how you play with the Aria player, you MAY never get a long decay on that piano sample.
it's a consideration.
