Hi there, I'd like to propose something to all the Finale community and composers/engravers. I'm a French independent musician. A year ago, I realized it was pretty hard to get a good service to sell your CDs online. Therefore I decided to make my own site with that aim. It took me a year or s

Hi there, I have something to ask. In a dream world, what would you like to have as a online service to distribute your music ? I'm a musician but I'm also web programmer. I recently opened a online music store for indie music and maybe we could develop a site all together to sell our works o

Hi there, I know this is possible to do but I don't know how. Let's say I have a staff with 4 measures. On the 2nd measure, I want to input text in the middle of the staff. How can I erase the lines just for one or two bars so that we can clearly see the text inside ? Thanks ! This drives me

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to solve the problem. Aaargh !!! Do some of you also use Quark X-Press for publishing ? If yes, how do you work with your publishers ? How do you export the music examples ? It seems that X-Press is pretty common for all the music text books
