Re: [Finale] natural+sharp before the same note
When we played the Borodin 2nd Symphony in my community orchestra years ago we had the natural-plus-sharp to cancel a double sharp notation on several occasions. Confused the hell out of a lot of people (as did some of those unexpected trans-caucasian augmented intervals!). ajr At 5:00 PM +0200 10/2/08, Johannes Gebauer wrote: After an f## I would like to display a natural and a single sharp on the same note, is this possible in Finale?

John Older editions followed the rule that to get from a double-sharp to a single-sharp, it was necessary to cancel one of the two sharps in the double sharp. Same for double flats. There are still lots of music in print which uses this tradition -- Some of the Selected Studies books published by Rubank follows this rule, and I believe in the Klose Clarinet Method it can be found as well. These days, John, you're right -- all that it takes to move from a double sharp to a single sharp is to place the single sharp in front of the note. But I believe Johannes is trying to be as accurate to the original as possible. -- David H.

I have a complete early-19th c. articulation library set up, which includes sharp, natural, and flat signs configured so as to appear immediately left of the notehead, but far enough away to allow room for Finale's own accidental to appear between.

The one time I needed to do this, I had just been working with altered unisons (a chord containing a F# and an F-natural), so the way I did it was to create such a note, place the noteheads right on top of each other, and adjust the accidentals. Using the idea of an articulation (as Robert suggested) did not occur to me at the time, but is more elegant than my approach. ns ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
