Re: [Finale] Finale 25 Octaves
Actually, I wrote my suggestion immediately after your query posted - but for some reason, it was held up in moderation for - well, nearly a full day! Ah well.

Re: [Finale] Finale 25 Octaves
Thank you, it's sorted now I think - it was, as several have suggested, the default "instrument ranges" that needed to be unchecked.

Re: [Finale] Finale 25 Octaves
Lawrence - 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...” CHECKED.If that IS your problem, go to “Edit,” pull up “Preferences” and then “Edit” – and uncheck that box.

Re: [Finale] Finale 25 Octaves
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 preferences that control this, and there are options. I had the same experience at first, and I’m not sure what I did to control it - away from Finale at the moment. Maybe you will get better guidance from others.

[Finale] Finale 25 Octaves
Hi, I've just bought Finale 25 Windows. I've had a couple of passages somehow being transposed up an octave without any input from me. Fortunately I've spotted them so far but this could be disastrous should I miss them. Is this a known fault or am I doing something stupid? (Never had this problem in any other version of Finale). The current problem was in a bassoon part which I entered correctly. When I changed to look at the score in scroll view it was transposed up the octave.
