Hi Dana,
You'll have to specify your version of Finale, your system, and your
platform. Everything changed in 2010, so this info is very important.

HI folks:
I'm stumped on trying to get things in a drum part to appear and
play back as they should. In almost all the Kontakt 3 drum kits,
somewhere around Middle C is a straight snare shot.. On the
onscreen keyboard, Middle C is that snare shot. SO...being smart, I
figured I'd set up transposition DOWN an octave, so that if a snare
is supposed to be one octave above middle C, it'll "sound" middle
C. No go. Regardless of transposition (in any clef, mind you) the
thing is stuck/based on position. It'sa drum KIT patch, so..why a
snare drum is one leger line below the staff is beyond me.
I guess the question is, how do I get this part to LOOK right and
play back as desired?
Right now I have a tom-tom in the E above middle C position in
layer 3 interfering with the rest of the part. No drummer will want
to read that.
(Also, for some reason they have things programmed into these
patches in which you type in a quarter note and gives you back a
triplet-like fill. What the hell? Why bother? I imagine it's for
people who aren't scoring..but..if you want a triplet, umm..doesn't
it make sense to just play a triplet?)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dana
