In MT the spread mark is used often for octaves. The word 'Bell' is written a fair bit too if the notes are so functioning. Steve P. On 6 Feb 2012, at 02:13, Linda Worsley li...@ganymuse.com wrote: This is not really a Finale question as much as a notation question. After all these years,

If I remember correctly, it will only save as MP3 if you are using midi, it won't save MP3 if you using Garritan. (I would love to be proved wrong on this one!) Cheers, Lawrence -- Lawrenceyates.co.uk ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu

The only practical way to produce an mp3, especially with an added vocal track, is to save as midi, and import into a DAW like Logic or Cubase. Finale is not a one stop shop for anything other than notation. ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu

It is completely practical to export audio from Finale. It is also completely practical to add a single audio track (such as a vocal track) to Finale, provided the tempos match exactly. Cheers, - DJA - WEB: http://www.secretsocietymusic.org On 6 Feb 2012, at 6:59 AM, Nigel Hanley wrote:

I opened a MIDI file in Finale (mac, 2010) and discovered that right in the middle of the pioece, all of the notation had shifted over a measure and a half. Not just one beat, not just one measure, but two eighth notes to the left in 6/8. I have NO idea how to shift them into the right position.

One possible solution: Highlight the entire 6/8 section of music. Change the time to 1/4. Re-highlight the the new 1/4 section where the 6/8 measure actually starts, and change the time signature to 6/8. You may need to experiment with checking and unchecking the rebar music box for this to work
