Aha. My issue is that the stop button is on a different monitor, so I am
unlikely to ingrain that habit. Thanks anyway.

Hi Robert,

Glad it helped! Please let MM know, this is a nasty bug and it had me tearing 
my hair out for days until I discovered that it was MIDI Thru related.

As for the playback, I've long gotten into the habit of clicking the "Stop" 
button on the playback controls before hitting spacebar, which resets the 
playback start point to the leftmost measure. There is probably a keyboard 
shortcut to stop playback entirely (instead of just pausing it) but I never 
learned it, and my "click the stop button" habit is now wholly ingrained.

Cheers,

Hi Robert,

Yes -- you can assign the MIDI Thru to an empty Fixed channel that does not 
have an instrument associated with it.

Let me know if this helps! If it does, please report it to MM, as the bug is 
100% reproducible on my system, but it would be nice to have corroboration.

Darcy, that seems to have fixed the problem! Thanks so much for your quick
reply that saved me a bunch of work.

On another topic:

I am attempting to leave the playback controls up so as to get human
playback. I set it to play from the left measure, but when I hit space to
top playback, it always resumes where it stopped instead of the left
measure. Do you have any suggestions about the most efficient way to do
this? I always used space-click up till now, but that does not activate
Human Playback.

Hi Robert,

I was getting severe crashes with Fin2012a, which I eventually discovered were 
related to my MIDI Thru setting, of all things.

If your MIDI Thru is currently set to "Off," try turning it on (use "Fixed" or 
"Smart" or whatever, it doesn't seem to matter so long as it is on) and see if 
that solves the problem for you. Please let me know as well, it would be nice 
to know if someone else can reproduce the problem!

I'm not sure at the moment.  I've been using Garritan and probably will 
continue to use it, however, I know there are some other good sound libraries 
out there, so I will have to investigate them and see what will work best for 
me.  It sounds like the issue lies more with space and that a second drive will 
be needed.  Thanks to everyone who responded!

I just type it. We are talking a recent version, right?

I choose a new tempo mark, I type "Allegro " with the space, then choose Insert

Right now it looks like a fast internal hard drive is still the best bet.
Internal solid-state drives (SSDs) are great for reading but the writes are
still slow and comparable to hard drives.

External drives are comparable in speed (hard drive / SSD) because of the
interface sloweness.

Since you're interested in virtual instruments, the biggest issue is going to
be reading the instrument data from hard drive into memory. Depending on the
virtual instrument software, you may want a separate hard drive or even a
separate machine to house it. And if you switch software, it may demand a new
hardware configuration.

If you're interested in a PC-based system, check out this guy:
 

I used to build my own PC-based systems, but now use his -- about the same as
building your own, but he specializes in audio/video workstations. He can
advise depending on the kind of virtual instruments you're going to use.

all run as AUs inside Mainstage or DP. 

So.. the internal may be fine.

I've found no difference between external 5400rpm and 7200rpm drives. 
I have found FireWire to get better track counts than USB 2 on drives 
enclosures with both. 

I cannot reliably record even stereo to a flash drive. 

I've spent years trying this stuff all ways. 
For most of my work I don't get second chances because of computer stuff ups..

Re: [Finale] The current spam epidemic

I think it may be your spam filter settings. I haven't gotten one spam 
email from the Finale list.

Re: [Finale] suggestions sought

How many tracks are you likely to record at once?
My internal 4200rpm (as slow as they come) will record 16 tracks of 24/44 
reliably. 
I also use the MacBooks internal drive as my live rig playing rhodes, wurli, 
piano, hammond, strings, brass..
all run as AUs inside Mainstage or DP. 

So.. the internal may be fine.

I've found no difference between external 5400rpm and 7200rpm drives. 
I have found FireWire to get better track counts than USB 2 on drives 
enclosures with both. 

I cannot reliably record even stereo to a flash drive. 

I've spent years trying this stuff all ways. 
For most of my work I don't get second chances because of computer stuff ups..

Re: [Finale] The current spam epidemic

[Bunnydowns]

There's been more spam in the past few weeks than at any time in my 12 
years on the list. I don't know if this is a function of the settings on my 
particular spam filter, but 100% of it is for boner pills; none of the other 
usual crap makes it through.

Is this some sort of thinly-veiled commentary on people who engrave music 
(and their spouses)? If so, good sir, I take offense!
