Chuck! Greetings from another bassist.
I have been going nuts with Finale 2K7 since I installed it and am now going back to 2K6. The parts extraction feature nearly killed me! I have a steady client for whom I do Big Band copying, and it almost doubled the time to do the part extractions and lay out the parts. I would really be much happieer if the allowed you to toggle ON/OFF the linked parts feature. Also, I cannot utilize all of the Garritan GPO and JABB libraries (I bought the full packages) with the new Kontakt player in 2K7 because it only recognizes the Finale/Garritan bundled sounds; so, the 2 things I use this software for the most, I'm better off in 2K6! Any similar thoughts? PS: Please go to my site (www.VernGraham.com) and listen to some of the mp3's I've posted if you'd like to hear how your playing (via Garritan) sounds in my compositions. By the way, did you know when they sampled you, there was a buzz in the instrument when you pluck the open A string? (It's not noticeable enough to ruin the sample, but I'm convinced I'm not hearing things, and it only shows up on that one note). And, I am really impressed and grateful that you did that work with Garritan and have become a valuable part of the new technologies in music! _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
