That's certainly true of my own objections -- I've seen Fin2004 running on Wintel machines and it just flies -- at least, compared to MacFin2004 on comparable hardware. It's like the bad old days of Sibelius, where the Mac version ran about twice as slow as the PC version. And as far as I know, many of the most egregious Fin2004 bugs (like the new and improved Text Tool bug) don't affect the Windows version. If I owned a Windows machine as well as a Mac, I'd probably do all my Finale work on the Windows box until (hopefully) Coda get their act together with the Mac version. At any rate, as for Hal's (tongue-in-cheek, I'm sure) "spies" allegation, well, I haven't said half the nasty things about MacFin2004 that I used to say about Sibelius 1.4. - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Brooklyn, NY ___ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale

And that's precisely why I think people should withhold their upgrade dollars if they don't think they are going to get something that's worth paying for. As to Sibelius, I tried the demo. It's very difficult, given the inability to save a file, to tell from the demo how usable Sibelius is or not. One can't really tell what it's like to work on it on a project of any length. What I did find was that in comparison to Finale, the step time entry is very, very poor (it reacts much too slowly to be fast), but that it wouldn't be disastrous. I also didn't much like the UI, but part of it is that the demo doesn't come with sufficient documentation to explain how to do much of anything. If you like the default results, well, you'll be happy. I *hated* the default layout, for the same reason I hate Finale's default templates -- everything is much, much too large. I was never able to figure out after entry was done how to reduce the size of systems. But I don't feel like I've gotten much of a feel for Sibelius. I really don't think the Sibelius demo is very good at all in helping a user understand what it does and doesn't do. It would be much better if it would limit you to saving a single page, rather than allowing you to save nothing at all. So, I'm not jumping ship. But it wasn't the horrid experience I was expecting. Aside from size, I thought the default layout settings were just fine and dandy. And I really think the idea of house styles is first-rate. All that said, the Finale programmers' feet need to be held to the fire. And the threat of not purchasing an upgrade is the only real leverage any individual user has. -- David W.

Re: [Finale] (no subject)
Errr... You can´t. What you can do is find a Soundfont file that you like it and use it instead of the default that comes with Finale. Now if you want Finale to play your synth with a particular sound of, say, saxophone, you have to look in the manual to figure out the patch number of the sound. Then you have to program an instrument in finale to send that patch change before playing AND turn off internal playback. If the sound that interest you is not in the main bank of the synth it might be harder to tell Finale how to send the proper change but it can be done... with luck.

Sorry, I neglected to say that I want to change the file that opens with the setup wizard. I've changed the default file and that works with the "new" from default but not with the wizard. I've had this problem before when I last had to re-install Finale but I can't remember how I did it, nor can I find the old emails telling me how to do it.

Since 10.4 is a the first version of OS X that runs on Power PC, as long as the Mac is running Intel it probably will work.
