You can achieve that result with some effort. Basically you apply a triplet of 3 eighths in the time of 2 to a dotted quarter. You add the slash as an articulation. I believe (but am not 100% certain) that Human Playback will even play this back correctly if you use one of the slash symbols it recognizes.
The main challenge is that if you use Finale to copy this, it may remove the triplets (and convert the dotted quarters to quarters) in a misguided attempt to be helpful. My Mass Copy plugin can help with this as well. R On Mon, Nov 2, 2015 at 8:31 AM, David H.
