[Finale] Optimizing Complex Option
Has anyone came into this and eventually found a solution? There's, let's say, a system with three staffs: staff 1 for clarinet and staff 2 and 3 grouped for piano. There's a system where the clarinet don't play and where the piano plays a melody written on the bottom staff (staff 3); these notes have to be played by both hands so some of them have been moved to the upper staff (staff 2) with the Note Mover Tool. Now, when it comes to optimize, staff #2 disappears as well as #1. Is there any way I can set to maintain staff #2 visible while optimizing without adding invisible notes or else? Thank you Giovanni Andreani ___ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] Optimizing Complex Option
Giovanni, I believe there is a setting for each staff in the staff attributes dialog (Staff Tool) which can prevent optimization for any staff, if you choose that option. You can choose that option for staff #2 or, when in the process of optimizing the staves, you can choose to have Finale ask you whether or not you want individual staves eliminated or kept. Either of these methods should work. Chuck On Sep 24, 2004, at 7:48 AM, Giovanni Andreani wrote: Has anyone came into this and eventually found a solution?

Re: [Finale] Optimizing Complex Option
You can also optimize, telling Finale to keep all staves. Then click the staff tool, select the *bottom* staff handle and hit delete.

It's in the Group Attributes dialog. ___ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] Finale + Garritan Personal Orchestra
I'm anxiously awaiting the delivery of my order of GPO. Jari Williamsson wrote: * The Expression Hairpin Emphasis setting in HP conflicts with GPO, as I see it. This setting does 2 things - controls the dynamic range of hairpin+hairpin situations (such as ), and it also controls the volume expression on long notes. The latter is good for flat samples, such as the one included in the SoftSynth - but since GPO includes its own expression in the samples themselves, this can produce absurd-sounding results when used with GPO. This HP preference setting should IMO absolutely be separated into 2 different ones! Would you please elaborate on this? What is the practical solution for a FinWin2005 Human Playback GPO user? For a playback-only version of the file, do not use hairpins, use letter dynamics only? Thanks, Raymond Horton ___ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Normally this would not be a problem because you would need to remove the default measure rests from the staff that receives notes from another staff. In such a case, I enter a real whole rest, then hide it, then copy that measure to similar ones. When you optimize, Finale will detect the hidden entries in that staff and retain it Hope this helps.

[Finale] Finale + Garritan Personal Orchestra
Are there any GPO users who also use (or have used) Reason, in particular with Reason's included Orkester CD? Is it substantially better? Or just different? And with Finale only or in conjunction with another program (say, a real sequencer like MOTU Performer)? I would greatly appreciate the sharing of any wisdom from your experience.

[Finale] Sending a new midi patch
Dear Finale List: I have a piece that includes violin and cello, each on its own midi channel. For the first part of the piece the strings are playing with the bow. At some point I'd like them to play pizzicato and then later back to arco. Can I send a midi patch that will change the sound from a bowed sound to a pizz sound, and then at some point back to an arco sound? Please direct me to the manual if necessary, but I didn't see anything there that made it clear to me if such a thing was possible while each instrument was using a single midi channel. I hope my request is clear. As always thanks for the great assistance. gb ___ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
