Re: [Finale] 12x18 booklet printing workflow
Hi Darcy, Ah yes, now here’s the rub! Printing uneven numbered parts booklet style in Finale is somewhat fussier. You need to create the required extra blank pages to reach any multiple of four. So seven pages of music will require an extra blank page added at the end. This is often a consideration when I’m doing my layout. Yes, the Swingline saddle stapler is a life saver! I’ve seen too many people try to use a long reach stapler for this purpose…boo!

Re: [Finale] 12x18 booklet printing workflow
What's the issue with long-throw staplers? I've been using one (PaperPro) for years; reliable, consistent alignment and effortless stapling. Don't you have to prefold the paper for a saddle stapler? Stapling first then folding works great for me, but I'm open to adopting a superior method. -Lee -Original Message- From: finale-boun...@shsu.edu [mailto:finale-boun...@shsu.edu] On Behalf Of Greg Hamilton Sent: Saturday, August 29, 2015 11:06 AM To: finale@shsu.edu Subject: Re: [Finale] 12x18 booklet printing workflow Hi Darcy, Ah yes, now here�s the rub!

No, it's not out. And actually it seemed to run everything fine and perhaps a little faster.

[Finale] Bizarre audio bleed
There must be a plausible explanation for this, but even as I replicate it I find it hard to believe. I’m just curious whether anyone else has experienced this, perhaps with a different instrument like an acoustic piano. I’m using Simple Entry (sometimes with, sometimes without, a midi keyboard) in Fin 2014 on an iMac (Yosemite). As usual, since I go back and forth between recording in Cubase and transcribing in Finale, I have a Yeti Pro USB mike connected to the computer, for both audio in and out (headphones plugged into the mike). I also have a nylon string classical guitar nearby for ideas and to check playability. Often I’ll enter a measure or two, then pick up the guitar and figure out the next couple measures. Today I noticed that when I returned to the screen I would see anywhere from one to half a dozen grayed out new notes, mostly on ledger lines way below the staff — i.e. way below the range of the instrument. It is similar to what happens if you inadvertently brush the QWERTY keyboard or midi keyboard or mouse in Simple Entry. I thought at first that I’d jiggled something to produce the notes. Then I caught the crime in progress. The rogue notes would appear if I plucked a string on the guitar hard enough — especially bass strings — and not otherwise. It was not spontaneous. The pitches don’t match exactly — even figuring in the octave difference in guitar notation — but generally are lower if the pitch is lower. Below a certain threshold it doesn’t happen. Has to be fairly loud. WTF? No, I’m not recording audio in Finale (nor am I running recording software at the moment). It’s just a classical guitar with no electronic connection of any kind. The mic does pick up the guitar but I have done nothing that would make Finale even aware of the mic, much less treat it as in input mode for notation. Hyperscribe is not active. It’s not just that Finale is responding to an audio signal; it’s that it is apparently trying to convert it to notation. Not accurately. But how does it even “hear” the guitar at all? ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu https://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale To unsubscribe from finale send a message to: finale-unsubscr...@shsu.edu
