2003-10-16 Thread Steven D Sandiford
Hello (from *sunny* Manchester!) Well, I've just purchased myself an Apple PowerBook (G3/400MHz "Pismo") which has OSX installed, so I'm 24 hours into "rediscovering" how to work on a Mac. It's gorgeous. but a little confusing, and I find I'm hooked. So, I thought I'd ask about how to go about i

[Finale] Klezmer music & notation (more OT than TAN)

2003-06-10 Thread Steven D Sandiford
Dear Wise Ones Can anyone tell me what a *typical* *traditional* Klezmer band line-up of instruments would be? I need to arrange some music in that style, and have in mind that clarinet and violin are prominent, possibly also accordion - but other than that am not so sure! I've done several web

To Everyone Who Responded Many thanks for the advice you (all) gave. It sounds more complicated than I, a mere trombonist, can handle!! As I don't run System X on my machine at work (yet), those programs that run under the new OS are not available to me, but I will make a note of your suggestion

[Finale] TAN Audio from DVD

2003-01-29 Thread Steven D Sandiford
A question for the collective wisdom of the Finale List I wish to transcribe some music from off a DVD. I have downloaded a shareware programme that helps in this respect a great deal, as long as you have an audio file to run it across. Does anyone know of software (for Mac) that would allow me

[Finale] MAC/playback problems and Quicktime

2002-12-03 Thread Steven D Sandiford
Dear List Members I remember a while ago reading reports about playback problems being caused by a problem within QuickTime itself, but unfortunately don't have a note of which particular version of QuickTime it was that was doing that. I need to update the OS on my work machine, and would rather

Dear Jerry and Jari (and others) Thank you for the information regarding the automatic spacing etc in the edit menu. I spent some time with Finale last night, and finally (no pun intended) found where the multimeasure rest submenu had moved to (!), although alternate notation is still evading me

[Finale] Double re-draws

Greetings Finale Gurus I've just (!) upgraded to Finale 2002. When I leave the Speedy Entry frame, the screen flickers (re-draws) and then does it again (re-draws a second time). Why? I remember this got discussed sometime in the past, probably with Finale 2001 (or possibly 2000!) but (for sha

Dear Chris Your story of the choreographer counting 8 instead of seven (by stressing both syllables of sev-en as beats) reminds me of a choir rehearsal at University, when I became aware that a passage in the Durufle "Requiem" (written in 7/8 if I remember rightly?) was actually being sung with 8
