Sorry I wasn't too clear. My measure numbers are strictly sequencial. I don't care if it matches phrasings, besides many of my compositions has odd phrasings. So, I never assign multiple sets of measure numbers. Again, strictly sequential regardless of repeats. On the other hand, I am very careful to put rehearsal letters organically to the music. >The question then arises: what do you do if the solo section has >multiple endings?

Yes, this is very common. >Would either Chuck or Hiro assign two >sets of numbers to that solo section, one corresponding to "every >time but the last time" and another corresponding to "last time - >going on"? Again, mine is strictly sequential. I use a lot of rehearsal letters even within an open solo section, so it would be like: "OK, let's start from [Solo D] last time" which means take the last ending. I have not experienced anyone getting confused with my charts. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
