When I write battery percussion parts, I typically have to do a full playback (via the Playback controls) in order to hear certain effects, such as rolls or diddles. For that matter, it also applies to dynamic effects such as crescendo/decrescendo, and stuff like fortepianos.
However, much of the time, I use the simple/fast playback (spacebar + click on the measure/area I want to hear). When I do this, it has never played back the percussive stuff...in other words, four eighth notes with diddle slashes on them will sound exactly like...four eighth notes. Unless I use FULL playback via the controls...then it will sound like eight 16th notes.
Well, in this particular file, I used the full playback...and then after that, it started to playback ALL the effects for me when I did fast playback as well! I started digging, and found the "Show All Hidden Notes/Rests" and saw that Finale had filled in the diddle measures with hidden playback notes...not only that, but it was (is) now playing back all the dynamic hairpins as well, without having to do full playback.
