[Finale] FinWin 2k6 - Entering 16th's triplets with Speedy Entry without MIDI keyboard

2009-03-31 Thread Marcello Noia
I have to transcribe a piece with a plenty of 16th's triplets in it. The fastest way to do that without a MIDI keyboard? Metatools? As I never used a metatool before, can any kind soul deeply explain how to do that? Many thanks in advance Marcello ___

If you are using Speedy Entry, caps lock will lock the rhythm value so all you have to do is play the pitches in on the MIDI keyboard one at a time. Saves tons of keystrokes. Christopher On Mar 31, 2009, at 4:37 AM, Marcello Noia wrote: I have to transcribe a piece with a plenty of

Marcello, It's difficult without a MIDI keyboard. However, if there are strings of 16th triplets I'd suggest changing the time signature to something like 6/8 or 12/8 and use the correct time signature for show. You only have to indicate a few of the triplets with a 3 to get the idea across.

It works without a MIDI keyboard in Speedy as well. The alphabetic keypad takes the place of the MIDI keyboard. Strangely, in 2009 Mac, I can't get the Caps Lock to work. I have used this before, and it worked great. Does anyone know what I am missing, or is it broken? Christopher On
