Re: [Finale] Re: Playback options?

[Don Hart]

Another method of initiating a playback is with the spacebar:

1) spacebar click anywhere in a measure to play piece starting in that
   measure; add shift and click on the staff of the instrument you want
   to solo
2) spacebar click to left of music to play piece from start
3) while viewing a staff set, spacebar click on a staff to hear only
   that staff set, or between staves to hear the entire score
4) hold spacebar, drag cursor over notes to hear them: backward,
   forward, held, with shift key to solo

These are what I use - there might be more in the manual.  For these the
playback window needs to be closed.  Or, if after stopping a playback window
playback with the spacebar, keep holding the spacebar and follow the
spacebar playback steps.  In lieu of a macro, a toggle-like effect between
window and spacebar playbacks can be achieved this way.

You also might want to check out the instrument list in the manual.   Hope
this helps.

Greetings,

Wow! Thanks for that "too obvious" info. In my remedial arranging, I've been 
forced to quit and re-launch every time I wanted to hear in the playback the 
edits I've been doing. My work is much much faster now. (If only it were much 
much better too...)

Here is another question: During arranging projects it would be very helpful 
to have the playback command play only certain selected staves. Can each staff 
in the score be selected to play or be silent? I'm on a Mac, OS 9.2.2, using 
Finale 2003a.

Yeah, I agree, it's hard to describe in few words, and maybe it makes sense where it is.

Re: [Finale] Engraver tuplets

[Thomas Schaller]

I upgraded to 2005b - even though they mention improved number 
positioning in regards to the shape -- my easy problem from before is 
still there - which basically means there is not a good default setting 
one can use, because the tuplet number will be off-center vertically 
when dealing with lower notes.

Re: [Finale] Character conversion

[Don Hart]

Thomas,

Probably not an answer to your question, but an observation: the character
substitution part of this sounds similar to problems some of us have had
(and discussed here a while back) printing pdf files.  If I recall correctly
the problem arose in Preview only, and not in Adobe Reader.  I'm on a Mac
but can't remember if the problem occurred on both platforms.

If this rings a bell you might want to investigate further, otherwise it's
probably just coincidence.

My best first guess is to check the fonts; I suspect that they used a 
font supplied by someone other than Coda / MakeMusic!, and that that the 
characters do not map to the same place between the font they used, and 
the font you are using..

It was renamed (in Fin2005a) from Enhanced Tuplets to Engraver Tuplets.

[Finale] Character conversion

[Thomas Schaller]

I was working on a file that had all its special characters messed up - 
the file apparently originated on a Windows machine, then got worked on 
by a Mac guy and they swear everything looked fine after converting 
characters - then the final file was archived - now when I opened it to 
work on, things like the pianissimo or fortissimo characters and the 
like switched character assignment and were now things like a double 
whole note character and similar.

Any idea why this is happening and how to avoid it in the future?
Thanks,

I think I have some good news here! You should probably see the most 
popular ones (Divider, Space Systems, Time Sig, Push Staves, Tempo) 
ported _really_ soon now.
Tobias has all the source code for these projects now, and he's 
working on it!

Fantastic! I can't tell you how happy that makes me!
But I'll try: Very! 8-)

As you will see progress bar when you first play, Finale have to pre-
cache the sequence for playing back.  Finale is not a real-time process
app, y'know :-)

Anyway, when you make a change, you have to flash the cache by hitting
stop button.  You can then start from anywhere again.

P.S. I have been wondering if Finale's MIDI playback caching is... I
mean, it does take unreasonably long.  Another legacy fragments leftover?
 Sorry, but ever since it got ported to OSX, I don't feel I am home.

Re: [Finale] playback question...

[Steve Gibons]

Your question is too general to answer, but one obvious thing comes to  
mind, sorry if it's too obvious; if you are using the playback palette  
you need to hit the stop button to reset the playback cache.

You'll get better answers if you post specific and/or repeatable  
symptoms.

Is there any way to speed its acceptance of score changes for  
playback?  We try quitting and restarting both QuicKeys and Finale,  
and even rebooting, but none of those works predictably well.

This is mostly on a Mac setup, but not entirely.
