Thank you, it's sorted now I think - it was, as several have suggested, the

Does this occur when you cut/paste passages from one instrument to another?
As I recall, Fin25 came with “respect instrument ranges when copying or...”

Hi Lawrence,
This probably has something to do with the way the new Finale handles note
entry at concert pitch instead of transposed pitch. For instance, bass violin
notes now enter at their real pitches but get written an octave higher. Kind
of confusing, but there are ways to set

Here’s a review. Click on Robert Puff’s link at the bottom of this review, too.
One of them ran speed tests, and Finale v. 25 is almost, but not quite, as fast
as 2012 in most things, but faster than 2014.5 in almost everything. But then,
you need Yosemite at least to run Finale v. 25.
There is a very helpful report. Would you be interested in running a couple
of speed tests, with a file I send you?
