Very true!

There's a very good book by the late Andrew Stiller, long a mainstay of 
this group, called "Handbook of Instrumentation."  It's available 
through Nick Carter Imaging:
http://www.npcimaging.com/software/frameset2.htm

I've found it to be a very accurate guide to ranges, techniques, 
potential problems, etc.  Far better than asking humans whose egos may 
get the better of them.

It's available as a paper book, on CD-rom or in a combined package.

Re: [Finale] 2014.5

[Aaron Rabushka]

Thanks to all for the information about the tuba trill. In the work that I'm
copying out (one of mine what just needs a dynamics overhaul) this
unaccompanied trill introduces (I won't say modulates to) a new key. When
the piece was read years ago I didn't get any feedback on this trill. The
only problems that I did hear about (which I have subsequently fixed)
brought on a life lesson that you don't use trumpet range advice from
Maynard Ferguson wannabes.

Thanks again!

Tuba trills: f# to g# in the staff would be fingered:
2/3 to 1 on a BBb. A bit awkward.Alternate fingering would be quite out of
tune
2 to 2/3 on a CC Tuba. Easy.
2 to 1 on an Eb tuba. Easy. Sorry, but other poster was not correct.
1/2 to 2 on an F tuba. Easy.
I have avoided any options of 5th or 6th valves, as the setups are quite
varied.

Re: [Finale] Score manager not naming new Instrument at top left corner of new part

[Christopher Smith]

Does your default document have a Text box in the upper left corner with 
Insert>Instrument/Score Name inserted? That’s the way to do it.

Re: [Finale] Update: Info on JW Plug-ins & TG Tools

[Chuck Israels]

Correction - JW Space empty rests is working.  I didn’t have the latest 
version.  My bad.

TG Tools Align/Move keyboard command is definitely broken, and that is a 
painful loss.  I hope MM fixes this quickly.

[Finale] Score manager not naming new Instrument at top left corner of new part

[Jim Fischer]

With Score Manager - I used to create a Tenor Sax part and the name Tenor sax - 
would appear on the top left of the page.
It is not doing that now. 

Any ideas why?

thx, jim

Re: [Finale] JW Plug-ins Not Working in 2014.5

[Mark Adler]

Just a reminder that as we modernize the Finale codebase to remain current
in today's operating systems, plug-ins also need to be modernized. While we
modernized all plug-ins that ship with Finale, it is important to remember
that not all 3rd party plug-ins have yet been modernized and may not work
in Finale 2014.5. My best advice is to check with the various plug-in
developers to make sure that you have the most current versions of their
plug-ins.
