I admit I was somewhat disappointed with the Finale/GPO instruments. To me they didn't sound much better than the Softsynths. But I just got the patch so I can use the full GPO and I've got all those wonderful sounds back. There is a huge difference between the "generic" solo violin that comes with Finale and the Gagliano (and Stradavari and Guameri) solo violins that come with full GPO.
So far, to me, the marriage has been seamless. New files created using the setup wizard automatically use the full GPO patches and expressions trigger the KS instruments as they should (except they don't seem to want to let strings play their first note as pizz. Must be a new rule in music.) So far, I'm happy. Ron Ronald J Brown PO Box 138 Newboro ON K0G 1P0 (613) 272-3181 http://www.RonaldJBrown.com -----Original Message----- From: Dean M.

True? No? What's the concensus? Dean _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
