MOTU MachFive2 is about to be released. MachFive2 sees all 4 Finale MIDI outputs. This v2 comes with 4 DVDs of samples. Quite nice.
My demo for a short chamber music is posted at MOTU: <http://www.motu.com/products/software/machfive/mp3.html> It is called "Morning Seed". While I was doing this, I was surprised FinMac2k8 HP is only for within Finale. Both SMF and real-time MIDI output are not the same HP data as when you playback with KontaktPlayer2 within. I even couldn't make it work wit external Kontakt2. I ended up with sequencing in Digital Performer. Has this been the way it is? I don't really do much playback in Finale. Since I only had a few hours to do this demo, I thought using Finale would make this quicker, but it didn't workout. In the end, drawing CC curves with Pencil tool is what I am used to :-) This might be a noob question, but I couldn't see how to solve this. MachFive2 sees all 4 Finale MIDI output, but FinMac2k8 Instrument List doesn't show them for output assignment, while all the hardware modules are listed fine. Play Through MIDI is engaged, of course. Is there any setup I missed, or is this a bug? -- - 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
