Greetings,
I have been playing with Finale 2007b on my PC, and I have noticed
that when
I put a retard or a tempo in the score, the HP generally ignores
it. I like
how HP interprets music (for the most part) but it is aggravating
that it
ignores markings that I purposefully put into the score. Does
anyone have
any suggestions on how to make HP observe markings?
I know HP automatically interprets things like "pizz" and dynamics,
but does it really interpret tempo markings that are not previously
set to a playback value?
Normally, yes. "Rit." "Accel." etc. are all caught by HP.
Is there a list anywhere of what exactly HP understands and what it
does with it? I don't know of one; perhaps someone knows where
these things are documented.
Human Playback Dictionary, beginning A-82 of the manual:
The Tempo Markings HP understands are:
acc, accel, accelerando, accelerato,
affretando, incalzando, ristringendo,
stringendo, string, stretto, en pressant,
pressez, en accélérant, faster,
beschleunigend, eilend, drängend, belebend,
rall, rallentando, calando, rit,
ri, ritar, riten, ritenuto, ritenente,
ritardando, slargando, morendo, ritardo,
allargando, allarg, retenu, rallentir,
en retenant, en cédant, cédez, zurückhaltend,
breiterwerdend, breiter, a
tempo, tempo, on time, au mouvement,
zeitmass, zeitmaß
As of Finale 2007, this is configurable.
I don't know why it's not working for Derek. Perhaps he's not using
one of the above expressions, or his Human Playback Prefs have been
modified from the default.
Cheers,
- Darcy
