Re: [Finale] colors

Re: [Finale] Tempo changes
In my somewhat less than humble opinion, you're driving yourself nuts trying to do this in Finale, when a MIDI sequencing program, such as DP or Logic, is much more suitable.

Re: [Finale] Tempo changes
I've been using Finale since 2000 and I've found that when I need truly realistic playback I need to go elsewhere for it. In my case I use MOTU's Digital Performer. I DO NOT try to import or export MIDI files, as I've found that to be too problematic. So I end up doing all of the work twice, but that's what I have to to in order to get my music to sound right on one hand (in DP), and to look right on the other (in Finale).

Re: [Finale] Garritan sound libraries
The Garritan for Finale library does contain saxes, and no, installing GPO will not erase anything.

Re: [Finale] Notation for string harmonics
I also like 9.5"x12.5" for parts. I got a batch of 12.5"x19" from Vallé Music here in L.A. a few years ago - don't remember the price, but they had it in stock - not a custom cutting job. It works great with my printer, which prints up to 13"x19" page sizes. I recently did a copy job for Tori Amos and the Metropole Orchestra. They wanted A3 (11.69"x16.53") for the scores and B4 (10.14"x14.33") for the parts.

Re: [Finale] Dominant 7 plus 13
I just worked on a chart in which the composer (a guitar player) wrote E7(add2). I'd call that E9, but the guitar player said that he would put the 9th in a top voice in my case, and an inner voice in his. I argued that the chord symbol is not meant to indicate voicings, only the notes to be played. In your case I suppose you could write E7(add6) if you really don't want the 9th to sound, but if that's not an issue, just write E13 and be done with it.

Re: [Finale] adding cue staff to piano part in linked parts
You need to create a new part that includes both the vocal and the piano. In Manage Parts, select New Part. Under Available Instruments, piano is listed with an arrow next to it. Select Vocal and add it, then select Piano, and add it. That should give you what you need.

Lately I've been working on lead sheets for Joan Armatrading, and since her range is so low, (2nd space C in bass clef) I find it convenient to use Treble 8 in order to avoid ledger lines.

Re: [Finale] Staves (was: notation for synthesizer
Last year I worked as copyist on a big job for Tori Amos. It was for orchestra of varying sizes, from small to huge. Sometimes I would reduce the harp to one staff, in order to save room in the score. There was also a synth part in one tune that only required one staff.
