Slightly off the current thread, but my two cents on the subject. I'm finding that with Finale2007 (windows) that hyperscribe is far more sensitive than it was with previous versions. Playing in the same exact piece, as close to exactly as I did before, results in nothing more than a mess on the screen. Frequently the downbeats are off by a 1/16 and even when I hold the note down the full value, I end up with a much shorter value than I intended. I'm using an external keyboard for playback and entry, so I don't think latency is the issue.
I also find in speedy entry when step entering music (using the caps lock option to input the same note values) I get inconsistent results when playing chords. Instead of the 3 notes showing up on one beat, I get two on one and one on the other, even when playing all 3 notes precisely at the same time. I never had this problem with previous versions of Finale. On a side note, I do find it interesting that when I load in a MIDI file into Band in A Box or PG PowerTracks, the notation display is, 99% of the time, just like a performer would want to see it. On the other hand, loading in the same file into Finale, no matter what type of tweaking I do with quantization settings, I rarely get what a performer would need to see and it almost always requires substantial editing.
