Re: [Finale] Finale 25 - What's removed?
I have not tried upgrading files that use the Mirror Tool, but my guess is that all the mirrors are converted to copies.

Well, I had a look, but I can't really see how this would help me. Please enlighten me... Best, Johannes Am 18.08.16 um 14:51 schrieb Dr. Raphael D.

Hi Johannes I would suggest that you visit finaletips.nu and download all available Jari Plugins, as soon as they have been converted to 64-bit. I am pretty sure that you find a comparable (and faster) tool in one of the Change Plugins.

I used to use the Mirror tool quite a bit, and found it very useful. the typical situation would be a baroque piece, where 1st and 2nd violins play in unison a lot of the time. Yes, one could just copy the part over, but using mirrors all the changes, corrections etc would automatically transfer to all the mirrored parts.

Re: [Finale] Finale 25 - What's removed?
Yes, I believe I could keep 2014.5 installed and do the auto-harmonizing there. But that begs the question what would be my motivation to go to V25 if I have to bounce between apps. In your case, this 64-bit version *MAY* resolve the speed problems you have been having on large scores. If that is the case, then the upgrade would be a clear winner. There might be a time I'd want to run ReWire, but it isn't all that likely for the kinds of projects I have been doing in Finale. I'd appreciate hearing from anybody with the demo installed, regarding whether the many problems with HP have been fixed. And as of this moment, the Makenusic forum is still rejecting the IP address from my Comcast connection (whether I use my PC or a cell phone over WiFi on that connection. If I disable WiFi on my cell phone (forcing it through the AT&T network, it gets to the forum OK. Seems like a bad day to have big website problems. And speaking of that, if you go to the Makemusic site, there is not a single word about the new Finale version on the home page. And if you click into the Finale section, still nothing other than a link to an "oh by the way ..." note about the new release. I would have thought with 2+ years to plan this release, they might have wanted to mention SOMETHING about it.

Re: [Finale] Finale 25 - What's removed?
Could you do the auto harmonizing in an older version and then import it?

Re: [Finale] Finale 25 - What's removed?
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
