Re: [Finale] Stopped saving audio

[Christopher Smith]

I’m sorry you can’t find the cause, but your proposal to save the piece in two 
chunks (hopefully at a natural break!) would be a good solution.

Re: [Finale] Stopped saving audio

[Dennis Bathory-Kitsz]

Thanks, Christopher. I checked the old Finale forums, and found only mention
of it (right up until the end of the forums) but no solutions.

It's the first time I remember encountering it myself (which means little,
since I'm old enough to forget most things), but long pieces have previously
exported just fine -- a massive 40-minute orchestral piece with simultaneous
time sigs, etc., for example, didn't fight back.

This score was fine up to measure #627. Export broke when I added new music
(and measure stacks) up to #660.

Re: [Finale] Stopped saving audio

[Christopher Smith]

I hope somebody remembers what it was that stopped audio exportation. I think I 
remember reading about it on the now-defunct Finale Forum. It can be searched, 
but only by using Google (there’s a sticky explaining how if you don’t know how 
to specify a site search).

73% is as far as it reports during playback, too, but that works fine.

I changed nothing -- I only added to the score. If I make a separate copy and
delete the first half of the piece, it saves the second half fine.

Forgot to mention it's a Human Playback issue (and I need HP). This is a bug
that's been around since Human Playback was introduced, but I thought it had
been squashed by now.

So something cumulative is killing HP's ability to save. Unless there's a
solution somebody knows about, then my options are to record the output while
playing, or to create a file in two halves for saving.

Neither as good as a bug that's fixed. :)

Thanks!

Hmm, I’ve heard of this before. Can you find 73% of the way through the piece 
and see what is in the score? I’ve heard things like fermatas might stop audio 
export, or caesuras. There might be something else, and in combination with 
other factors like two fermatas, one in each layer on one staff.

I’m almost certain this is findable. What did you change between the last time 
it played back properly and now?
