Darcy ... I didn't catch it in the tutorial, does it explain how to
save the presets on the Ambiance Reverb?

Hi Johannes,
The default Mixer setting is determined by Finale. I believe it
used to be lower when using GPO instruments (in Fin2006a and up),
but for some reason it got set back to "101" again for Finale 2007,
which is much too high. Strictly speaking, this is a Finale
problem, not a Garritan problem, though I agree that the two
companies could do a much better job of trying to get their
products to work together for better out-of-the-box results.
The Ambience reverb is actually a third-party product licensed by
Garritan. I have no idea why the default presets are so poorly
designed, but it's easy to create and save your own presets.
But at least you, as a PPC Mac user, can actually use Ambience!
It's (still) not compatible with Intel Macs at all, and I have no
idea if it ever will be.
Cheers,
- Darcy

Just a friendly reminder that this is one of the tips I give in
my Garritan Instruments tutorial, called "GPOHP Tutorial
Supplement.pdf", and found in your User Manual folder (provided
you have an up-to-date version of Finale 2006 or Finale 2007).
On the other hand it is a disgrace that clipping happens at all
unless the fader is pulled down. It is not my main problem with
GPO playback in Finale but it is one of those things which makes
working with GPO playback a negative experience for me. I hardly
ever use it these days because there are so many things which
don't work out of the box.
To give just one more example: The Ambience reverb presets on the
Mac all revert to 0% dry, 100% wet, 100% quality. The only way to
use it is to set it to 100% dry and quality of no more than 50%
(otherwise the processor explodes). Why do I have to set this
every time myself?
