I just stumbled across this article that was put out about 3 weeks ago. it seems to say these items are removed from the new version:
* Band-in-a-box auto harmonizing * Mirror tool (i.e. ie no more mirrored measures) * Tempo tool * Music scanning This sounds like a net DOWN-grade to me. I have the pro version of SmartScan, which I can use with XML, and I never used mirrored measures. But I use the auto-harmonizing all the time. It is a quick way to get an arrangement up and running. My final arrangements rarely use the notes exactly as put out by that plug-in. I will generally scrub it to do better voice leading and improve the harmonies (the plug-in seems to go crazy adding 6ths). But The ability to quickly populate a soli section is valuable, IMHO. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu https://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale To unsubscribe from finale send a message to: finale-unsubscr...@shsu.edu
