Does anyone else feel that the solo oboe in Finale's Garritan has intonation problems? Maybe the rest of the Garritan orchestra should tune to the oboe - that's how it works in real life isn't it? ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu

I've been playing back a full band score of something I've just written, and yes, there are intonation problems, esp. in full, loud chords. I'm not sure it's the oboe, but they certainly are there. Dean On Jan 8, 2006, at 11:50 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Does anyone else feel that the

I feel this way too and always work with engraver slurs off. I've seen so many people having trouble with it that I feel good with this decision. The engraver slurs need need tweaking anyway. And since articulations can be taken into consideration in the placement I still get some benefits too.
