A possible suggestion for a further extension or spin-off from what is being implied in this plugin:

Oftentimes there might be a passage with, say, four-note and five-note chords, and one might want to remove the all the bottom notes, leaving the top two.

Or, say, leave only the 2nd and 3rd lowest notes from a series of chords.

I know that presently the best way to do this is to use the Explode feature of Finale but I've found it to be inconsistent and at times, it re-transcribes the music so is not always so useful. In order to get it accurate, the best way I've found is to go into Speedy and remove them manually. But this is time consuming.

Would this be an easy enough thing to do with a plugin?

Thanks Chuck. I think the important thing with these small plug-ins is
that you organize them in a way in the Plug-ins menu where you'll find
them directly when you need them. For example, a submenu folder called
"Block Harmony" might make sense in this case?

Forgot to mention: the Drop 2nds plug-in will work with parts directly,
without any tricks on the Mac side. I'll update all the previous Mac
plug-ins later.


Best regards,
