[Finale] Export to MP3 in Finale 2011? and clef question.
Hello, all, I finally bit the bullet and upgraded Finale 2011 from 2009. Pardon me if you've already covered this, but I can't find an export to MP3 option. I'm perfectly capable of converting an AIFF or WAV file to MP3, but I'd like the convenience of one-stop shopping with this feature. The Finale website notes MP3 capability, but only available with SmartMusic Sound Font only. What does this mean? Arrggh! While I'm at it let me also ask another question: is it possible with Finale 2011 to place a clef *after* a barline, but before a forced time and key signature? I need this for theory assignments and exams. Thanks! Andrew ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

If you use AU/VST instruments (for example, Garritan instruments) for playback, you can'd save directly to MP3. You have to save to AIFF or WAV first, then convert afterwards. Finale has always worked this way -- you've never been able to save directly to MP3 when using AU/VST instruments.

[Finale] capo chords
I was pleased to see that Finale 2011 finally has an accessible capo chord option, as I've never been able to figure out how to do this before. But I was not pleased when I found out that a G/B chord was shown as a D/Gb when capoed at the fifth fret. These enharmonic spellings are scattered throughout the piece, and I can find no way of editing the capo chord.

[Finale] TG tools and Fin2011
Does anyone know about the full TG Tools for FinMac (or Win) 2011? Tobias usually has something for us by now. Has anyone gotten any part of the full TG Tools (not the free Finale- supplied ones) to work in any way with 2011? I forgot how much I've come to rely on them -- especially in the midst of an orchestral project. Hoping against hope for something soon... Thanks, David ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

Hi David, Tobias updated these for 2011 some time ago (after a little nagging on my part). I use a few of them and would find linked parts to be a burden rather than a help without the use of Transfer Layout. (Best regards from our new location, [and my retirement from WWU] in Portland.)

[Finale] {Spam} Slurs and articulations
I'm having trouble when I apply slurs to notes with articulations (staccato, accents, etc.). The slur attaches to the notehead, and I'd like it to float about (or below, as the case may be) the articulation. It's a royal pain to have to manually adjust every slur. I'm using version 2011 for Windows. Steve Larsen ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
Re: [Finale] {Spam} Slurs and articulations
Not in Finale right now, so I am foggy on specifics but, in each articulation dialog, there is a check box for having the articulation appear inside slurs. Certain articulations appear inside by convention (staccatos and tenutos), others - like accents, do not and must be adjusted by hand (as far as I know).

Re: [Finale] {Spam} Slurs and articulations
This is something slowing me down on an orchestra score I'm working on. (I'm in Win 2011a) It looks like when I go the Articulation Designer window for an articulation, there is an option in the lower left corner inside slurs. This works fine to have it checked for for staccato dots tenuto accents (inside the slur per Ross). However, for the () accents Ross says sometimes inside the slur, and sometimes outside. But what seems to me happens with those accents is, if I check inside slurs, it affects all of them in the piece, so I end up having to adjust all the slurs where I want the accent outside (or vice versa). Has anyone one found a better way of handing these? --- James James Cooper Composer, classical guitarist, songwriter www.ModeZ.com On Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 1:08 PM, Chuck Israels cisra...@comcast.net wrote: Not in Finale right now, so I am foggy on specifics but, in each articulation dialog, there is a check box for having the articulation appear inside slurs.

Re: [Finale] {Spam} Slurs and articulations
That helps (David) - thanks. I have to experiment more, but was having problems with collisions between the accents slurs in this one section. I wonder if some of that was caused by the fact I put them in the 1st violins, then copied to the rest of the strings. I wonder if they would have come out better if I had just entered (the slurs at least) individually (The passage wasn't so long that the extra time would have been all that bad.) --- James James Cooper Composer, classical guitarist, songwriter www.ModeZ.com On Tue, Oct 26, 2010 at 7:29 PM, David W.
