wasn't it Andrew who was complaining about verbifying nouns (the term itself is an example) sometime last year? Christopher Certainly not! That's one of the glories of the language. I tend to be an extreme latitudinarian in linguistic matters. I'll even grit my teeth and concede nucular.

Ken, I like the idea of secondary subdominant. In Hey Jude the repeated progression sounds like IV/IV-IV-I. To some Schenkerians that would not be a progression at all but a prolongation of the tonic. There's a very interesting piece by Orlando di Lasso called Anna, mihi dilecta where the

Hi Johannes, If you can't get open the keyswitch library to open, email me and I'll send you my copy of the library. I don't understand how the playback data dump stuff works either, but that's not necessary since the person who programmed the library has already done all the work for us,

[Finale] Engraver Slur Settings

2005-07-03 Thread David W. Fenton
With the settings available in WinFin 2K3, is there a way to adjust Engraver Slurs so that instead of vastly increasing the vertical arc to avoid accidentals, instead, it moves the end point plus some increase of arc? I doubt it's possible, but I don't quite understand all the options
