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.
Hi Vern,
You can extract parts the old way in 2K7. You do not have to use the
linked parts feature. However, TGTools does allow copying of page
layouts from one part to another, so some of the frustration of
linked parts is eliminated by that brilliant plugin.
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?
I don't have this problem. I have others in 2K7, but my JABB library
plays back fine.
I am up early and have not had breakfast, but I will check out your
site as soon as I've had my coffee. I haven't noticed the buzz on
the open A. I have stumbled on a better instrument recently (I
wasn't looking for one - a former student found it and couldn't
afford it) - one with a deeper sound - more fundamental in the
harmonic structure of the sound. Maybe Gary will want to sample that
sometime.
Chuck
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!
