Just wanted to clarify one thing... In the document in question (the one I originally asked about), if I set the vol. in the inst. list to 101, it becomes 64 on the MIDI instrument, if I set it to 100, it becomes 63, if i set it to 50, it becomes 31, if I set it to 90 it becomes 57, and so on. So something is multiplying it by some less than 100% factor in this docment. In the default document it gets mutliplied by slightly more than 100%. If I create a document without libraries it is multiplied by excactly 100%. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
