[Finale] pitched to non-pitched percussion on same staff

2012-01-29 Thread Jonathan Smith
Hi Craig,

What I do is set up and assign an expression to trigger the channel change 
(sometimes I just hide it or make it a blank space). Then set up another one to 
trigger it back again later on the staff. 

So for instance if your tuned percussion stave was originally set to midi 
channel 7, assign an expression to change that stave to channel 10 (normally 
the perc channel) just before the entry. Then when you want it revert back to 
tuned percussion again, set up another expression to change the midi back to 
channel 7. You will also need to assign another expression to dictate which 
actual 'sound' you want on the channel again, like Timpani, Glock, Xylo etc, 
and you do that by assigning it to a Patch change not a channel change.

I usually put in a brief string of text into the description box to keep track 
of what the expr. is assigned to, as if you hide it or make it blank it saves 
digging into all the playback dialogues. Then I place the hidden Channel change 
very early on the staff before the entry and the patch change just before the 
entry, but that is usually part and parcel of the expression name like 
Xylophone of which I have a whole load pre-set for playback patch changes in 
my expressions library.

Hope this helps,

Jonathan

 
 Is there a way in FinMac2K11 to switch playback from pitched to non-pitched 
 percussion on the same staff?  I can get the notation to work but can't 
 figure out how to get playback to go from vibraphone to tom-toms for example.
 
 Thanks,
 Craig

Or perhaps NOT so nice present?   It appears to be a hijacked addressbook

Michael?   You didn't REALLY send out this link, right?
