Re: [Finale] GPO volume problem

There seem to be some bugs in this area and they aren't fixed with 2014.5. I have frequent problems with instruments going way too quiet, and I have been completely unsuccessful at finding a cause. If by the "GPO Mixer" you mean Aria, you can't use the volume sliders there. That corresponds t

I seem to have a few new bugs in 2014.5. Some expressions are un-deletable with the delete key, but delete if selected then deleted from the control-click menu. Sometimes stop and pause (and the spacebar) won’t stop playback which continues for a few bars or to the end. Finale also seems to be

Ok, I don't see any base volume control in the Aria mixer, but the modulation control helped quite a bit. Does anyone have any system for setting volumes and balance with GPO? I keep running into instances where instruments do not respond to dynamics in the music, etc, and balance changes when I'm

Ok, now I see that Craig said base volume score manager, not Aria. I recall seeing volume settings in score manager in an earlier life but I don't see it now. Thanks for all suggestions On Nov 21, 2015 8:40 AM, "Craig Parmerlee" wrote: > There seem to be some bugs in this area and they aren't fi

Yes, you can set that volume in the Score Manager, not in the Aria Mixer. DO not use the Aria Mixer volume sliders. They are controlled dynamically by Finale to adjust playback nuances. Go into score manager and assign instruments at the layer level, not at the staff level. In the Score Mana

Regarding my cases of instruments getting too quiet, i have always suspected spurious MIDI data. But I recently went to the trouble of building my whole score from scratch, then doing a copy in of just the notes, not any of the MIDI data. And the problem soon returned (after just a few minute

FWIW, I have been keeping a list of the bizarre behaviors I have seen with 2014.5. I have about 10 new bugs that never happened to me before now and several of the most annoying prior problems that have not been addressed. One of the things that drove me crazy was the bugs in the Cautionary A
