Re: [Finale] Winfin2012 crashing
Did you install another program on your computer in the last days before you started having this problem? You might want to go to the control panel and check the system restore option to see if any programs were installed about the time you started to have the problem. If you did you can restore your computer to the state it was in just before your crashes, one at a time, reboot, and try and run Finale again. You will have to reinstall the program you deleted if it does not seem to be the one that caused the problem. Sorry, that's all I have to offer.

RE: DON'T TEST: Re: [Finale] copying reel to reel tapes
Just out of curiosity, how do cassette tapes fare? Have they been known to have these type problems, too? Richard -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dennis Bathory-Kitsz Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2008 7:02 AM To: finale@shsu.edu Subject: DON'T TEST: Re: [Finale] copying reel to reel tapes I'm on deadline but had to jump in here. This tape-baking is something that I do for restoration clients, and although I replied to Vivian privately, I have to respond to this message before folks do the wrong thing. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote, on 4/9/2008 5:15 AM: 2) The baking process he refers to is a last resort; let's start with the first resort. If you know these are gummy tapes, this is the first resort for some very good reasons. 3) Let's ssume you still own a reel-to-reel player that works (not a safe assumption unless it's direct-drive; if there are rubber belts involved, they have a finite lifetime). If you do have one that works, play one of the tapes and see for yourself what condition it's in. Do NOT play the tapes. Whether they are gummy, flaking, non-Mylar, etc., amateur handling can damage them. Even in otherwise good situations, splices can fail and tangle the tapes unexpectedly. There are ways of handling tests, and just playing a tape isn't the place to start. 4) At level one of detioration, there will be drop-outs, because the glue that attaches the magnetized iron particles (which is how your signal is encoded) to the (usually) mylar tape base also has a lifetime. Some of the magnetized iron can literally fall off over time. If you open the box and there's rust-colored dust in it--that ain't good. Mylar and usually paper tape binding is good. Acetate tape loses its binding, sometimes catastrophically. All tape types (and there are others) can be damaged by test playing, especially for those who used thinner tapes (especially .5 mil Mylar) back in the day when these were popular with home recordists or people who wanted to get a lot of recording time and didn't realize the consequences. Even playing thin tapes can ruin them linearly with folds and creases. Playing tapes with poor binding can cause oxide to fall off. 5) At level two of detioration, which is what you are worried about, serious fluctuations in termperature and humidity (particularly humidity) while in storage will actually turn some or all of the iron/glue/mylar product into congealed gunk. If that's your situation, you need to follow Christopher's instructions. Depending on the degree of gunkiness, baking may or may not save a portion of your material. Gumminess is not an issue of storage. It's an issue of long-term chemistry with certain formulations of tape, including very well stored Ampex mastering tapes from the 1980s. These will go gummy irrespective of how they were stored; my own top-of-the-line Ampex masters from this era are all gummy, while most of the Maxell masters are fine. 6) It's a little late for this, but reel-to-reel archivists have always recommended end-to-end rewinding of all your tapes once a year. That way, if a process of adhesion to the next layer has begun at a low level, they will get aired out. If your tapes are still in playable condition, please consider doing this in the future. Do NOT -- repeat do NOT -- rewind potentially gummy or flaky tapes. With gummy tapes, even if the layers are not stuck together (which is rare, except at splices), this will cause the gummy surface to heat, stick, pull off oxide and create clots of oxide on the tape surface that have to be removed by hand. The gummy tape will ALWAYS get caught in the guides and usually snap and make a tangled mess. With flaky tapes, the oxide will shear off in great sheets before there's time to stop it. When I prepare old tapes, I test first, then if working with a tail-out tape that requires winding to the front, I slowly wind on a special jig with the oxide OUT and not in contact with any hardware. Handle tapes as little as possible; clean and repair splices first. I have a huge reel-to-reel collection, and the dire predictions about the shortness of the half-life of the medium are greatly exaggerated. The first tapes I made in 1957 are still in perfect condition; and keeping them this way is not the mission impossible it's sometimes made out to be. 1957 was likely acetate. Depending on how those were stored, they will either be in perfect condition, warped (they are organic materials), moldy, flaking, etc. You do NOT want to find out they're about to flake into a pile of oxide when you're test-playing or -rewinding them. If the tapes in question are masters or only copies, find someone who has done restoration and get some advice FIRST. They should give you a free or nominal cost recommendation on one of your tapes. If they've done gummy or flaky tapes before, they will know almost immediately. Should yours be gummy tapes, the

If the context included constantly changing meters, all with 8 on the bottom, then a measure of 12/8 would not, IMO, automatically imply 4 dotted Q to any educated musician.

Perhaps a list of other applications you're running at the same time, how much RAM you've got available, maybe a bit more precision with what steps you're doing immediately before Finale disappears. If none of us had been able to use Smart Shapes in 2007 without the program disappearing, you'd better believe you would have heard of it long before the end of November! -- David H.

[Finale] Looking for info on Jeff Heist's transcription of Sing, Sing, Sing Part I
Greetings, List, Does anyone know what the sax instrumentation was on this no longer published arrangement of this classic Goodman arrangement? I am playing a concert tonight and tomorrow night and have to sit holding my Bari while the band plays. What we have is clarinet, two altos and one 1st tenor. Was there a 2nd tenor (or Bari)? Anyone know where we could get the (possibly) missing part? ' Thanks in advance, Richard Willis -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

RE: [Finale] Looking for info on Jeff Heist's transcription of Sing, Sing, Sing Part I
Hi, Chuck, That is my thinking, too. I thought he might have had a tenor II for this arrangement, but I can't verify that. It seems odd to have only three saxes and Benny. But, times were tough... Thanks again...

I think the usual basic section was two altos and two tenors plus Benny as a soloist.

RE: [Finale] Looking for info on Jeff Heist's transcription of Sing, Sing, Sing Part I
Hi, Christopher, That is what I suspected. I did think he had a 4-man sax section plus Benny on clarinet. History wins out on this one and I get to watch the ballet tonight... Thanks again, Richard -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Christopher Smith Sent: Friday, October 13, 2006 2:28 PM To: finale@shsu.edu Subject: Re: [Finale] Looking for info on Jeff Heist's transcription of Sing,Sing, Sing Part I No bari part. BG's band didn't have one. However, it WAS common practice right after the war ended and there was sudden prosperity, for previously 4-man sax sections to add a baritone, who would read off the Alto 1 book, thus changing all the 4part block voicings into Supersax-type voicings. So give that a try, or else just sit out to be historically accurate.

I agree -- text blocks need to have another radio-button feature added to the attributes dialog and available in the right-click menu: Score Only, Parts Only, Score And Parts, This Part Only, Parts According to Staff List (which would then bring a drop-down list of available staff lists, which could be selected individually or multiply).

RE: [Finale] 256th notes
It's a little known fact that all of Kenny G's music is only eight measures long, therefore, he uses 4096 notes to get everything he plays notated *snicker* -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David W.

Can I get my five beams in Finale? Do you want 5 beams, or 256ths? The latter have 6 beams, if I count correctly, and those are not possible in Finale, afaik. 5 beams are possible, but you may have to change the duration for each note manually. You can do that with MassEdit (Change Durations). Enter them as 64th first, than change the duration to 50%. 128th notes can be entered in Speedy from the keyboard, using Ctrl-0 for the rhythmic value on Windows (I won't speculate on the Mac's equivalent shift key). If you enter 128th notes, and then do what Johannes suggests, reducing the duration by 50%, you get 256th notes, with 6 beams. I then tested applying duration 25% and then 25% again. I ended up with the appropriate beams and notes of the appropriate length, and that is the limit, 10 beams, which would be a 4096th note, or 1 EVPU in length, which is 1/64th the length of a 64th note. So it seems to me that there are no real practical limitations to Finale in this regard, though there is a limit of 1 EVPU for the length of a note. But if there's any music that uses 4096th notes, I've never heard of it! -- David W.

RE: [Finale] Audio problem
Greg, I just checked it with FinWin2006c-r1 and it works fine with my settings. I hear the part I am scrubbing. When I just Cntl-spacebar I hear all parts. Does your music play when you hold the spacebar down and click on a measure?

Whenever I "scrub" across the music to listen to it (ie.. use the Ctrl-Shift-Spacebar and drag across the music with the mouse), the audio either locks up or stops playing completely. I don't know if this has to do with my recent installation of the level "C" upgrade, but I don't recall it happening before that. However, I wasn't using this feature much before just recently either. Is anyone else having this problem? Is this a known issue or should I report this to MM?
