Chuck, if the light goes on for you, please hit me over the head
with it.
Before I sent 2007 back, I reached the conclusion that the linked
parts thing was right for a certain class of user--a class of user
to which
I don't seem to belong. While my determination doesn't match
yours in
this matter, I am willing to learn what--if indeed anything--I'm
missing.
I think you're absolutely correct that linked parts does serve some
users quite well while leaving others with different problems which
it only exacerbates rather than aids with.
But remember that you can always use Fin2007 in the old-fashioned,
make-a-score-and-extract-parts manner, just as Fin2006 and earlier.
Indeed you can, and there are a few improvements that make the
upgrade worthwhile for some, I'm sure. I find that I have become
quickly addicted to horizontal scrolling, for one thing, and
improvements in Human Playback are considerable, in spite of the fact
that efforts to make notation play back like educated musicians will
always encounter the law of diminishing returns. Many thanks to
Darcy and Robert Piechaud (sp?) for all the work they have done to
make jazz rhythms at least approximate good performance practice.
