Title: Re: [Finale] Swing?
I know it’s not the greatest solution, but you can use the tempo tool to create the swing.

Double-click a measure with the tempo tool.
Click Set Swing...
Click Duration
Choose 16th
That’ll swing it. You’ll have to set tempo to “No HP Effect” in HP prefs if you are using Human Playback.

Can someone tell me how to specify swinging of 16th's and not 8th's?
 
I have a slow Hip Hop section (quarter = 76) where the 8th's need to stay straight but the 16th's need to be bouncy. The swing function does the opposite. I can accomplish the task by writing it in "cut time" but that's not the way I want it to look.
 
Any input?


I assume you're talking about playback only?

I think you might be out of luck on this. But I agree that hip-hop 16ths would be a useful option in the playback, and I would certainly make that request to MakeMusic.

In the meantime, I would write it as 16ths, print it out, then use Mass Edit>Change>Note Durations in combination with the Time Sig tool to change the passage to eighths, apply the Human Playback plugin to make them swing, and use that playback.

Sorry for the bad news.
