Re: [Finale] slurs & system breaks

I can't find any situation where these settings make a difference to a slur, note attached or measure attached. I've just got used to manually editing all slurs over system breaks and never bothering with the settings in the context menu. To add to this problem, the setting "Maintain Angle Ove

Is it just me or are the arrows the wrong way around for selecting which set of lyrics to edit in the edit lyrics dialogue box. To my mind it should be like they are in a score: 1. Lyrics 1 2. Lyrics 2 3. Lyrics 3 So that 1 is at the top and to get from 1 to 2 you click the down arrow, that's th

Re: [Finale] Guitar notation

Simon, thanks, I guess I read the chapter and try some more... But it would be nice just to press an "x" and get an "x". I don't need guitar notation often, at least not complicated things, just copying from a normal staff. So I will have to look into it the next time I'll use it. Kurt At 0

Richard, thanks for the help. But I meant the voicings in the fretboards. But I think I should give it a try myself and do some reading... Kurt At 01:51 12.01.2006, you wrote: > chords: How do I create different voicings for the same chord? I think all of that is in the Simple Entry (tab st

Michael, thanks. Yes, I have Guitar Pro 5. Originally I meant "manually" converting, i. e. inputting the TAB manually into Finale. But now I will give the direct import a try for sure. However, I don't expect things like slides, hammer-ons and pull-offs, and the muted x-noteheads to work, but

Hi Michael, just tried to convert some Guitar Pro Files via XML. Just as I feared. a very simple little piece worked ok, even the muted x notes got converted. Attached on every note in Finale I find a f (forte). Got rid of them, ok. The second file didn't work at all (XML error) The thi

Re: [Finale] TAN: Intel Macs out

Great plan, but you have to wonder if MakeMusic has an Intel mac development system yet. I mean, if you remember how long it took to get to OS X...I'd imagine that Finale 2007 is NOT going to be Universal Binary. Maybe by Xmas 2006, but I'd predict that it would most likely be 2007 (like Fe

I would guess that GPO performance will be *extremely* degraded under Rosetta, at least until Native Instruments come up with a Universal version of the Kontakt Player. - Darcy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://secretsociety.typepad.com Brooklyn, NY On 12 Jan 2006, at 3:39 PM, Eric Dannewitz

That would be like saying the Sky Is Blue. But, it would be amazing to consider what kind of performance GPO will have when it becomes Universal. Darcy James Argue wrote: I would guess that GPO performance will be *extremely* degraded under Rosetta, at least until Native Instruments c
