I think there's a confusion here about Human Playback vs. the traditional playback methods. HP is defined in ways that you can't change, and apparently includes the temporal space. What you've described above is altering the traditional playback definitions of articulations, which are wholly independent of HP. Of course, I'm on such an old version of Finale that I don't have HP, but I've run the demos and know a little bit about how it works. Maybe somebody who uses HP could explain more about the interaction between articulation playback definitions and HP. -- David W.
