I just did a scale and I had sharps on the way up and flats on the way down.

(i.e. C C# D in ms. 1, but D Db C in ms. 3). I think I saw this feature on the notation window of a sequencing program several years ago at NAMM. It handles a chromatic scale exactly as you'd expect. It seems pretty logical to me, at least as an option. After all, sometimes, say in F, C# makes more sense than Db, no? The global settings just don't take into account what's happening melodically. I use Speedy, and I'd like to eliminate the 9 key as much as possible. Any thoughts? --Mike Dana _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
