Re: [Finale] 4/4 to 2/2

No, they don't. Given no other indication to the contrary, quarter notes equal quarter notes. If you want them to go twice as fast you need to place an indicator, usually in the manner of q=h where the q would be an actual quarter note and the h would be a half note.

I have two measures of four quarter notes in 4/4 time, followed by two measures of four quarter notes in 2/2 time. If there are no tempo markings to the contrary, don't the quarter notes in the second two measures go twice as fast as the quarter notes in the first two?
