What would that reason be, then? I can't think of one. Curious!

Sorry about the problems;-)
My university just switched to a MS Exchange format for email, and it plays
hell with embedded URLs;-(
Please try this time as I have a new technique for getting a URL sent to me in

Thanks so much--
While I'm not having problems with any other sites, I do think this
may have something to do with my ISP--optonline.net--since another

I would dearly love to even examine the Dumbo score. Brilliant
orchestration, highly inventive--especially Pink Elephants on Parade.

The JABB instruments are loaded via the Kontakt Player, which comes

I don't own the standalone Kontakt and have never tried to use it with

They have FIXED the non-transposing chord symbols for non-key-

But does that make up for all the other things in 2009?

I bind my 17 scores with a 14 binding, but I have it flush against
the bottom of the score and leave the 3 without a binding free at
the top. Any place will do it (but they don't have to in my case now
that I have the Akiles coil binder! Thanks NPC Imaging!) and it is
very convenient.
Have you tried the demo for yourself?

FWIW, I have once encountered a need to go above 4 layers. I don't remember the
context. I eventually worked around it, but everytime I subsequently wanted to
make changes to this, it was a pain. I never thought much about it, as it was
quite rare for me, but it always struck me as odd. IIRC, I

Also, chords will enter correctly via MIDI, in the same way that

Seems to me that if they wanted to put in limitations for some publishing
house, it would not be unreasonable to put in a policies configuration where
you can select, say, the WB or BH guidelines and styles so the various houses
get what they want. For the rest of us peons who have different

subject. As a professional software designer for 35 years, it seems
entirely plausible to me that they may have faced a point where

features. would have taken
I am a programmer, too, and for about as long. I have encountered situations
similar to what you've described below. There may be issues with having large
staff lists (performance, field count bit size, whatever), but I can't see the
reason for 4, as opposed to say, 8 or 16. I am not in their
Just a comment on larger scores. I find a 17 score too long to handle
easily in rehearsal. It hangs over the end of the stand and sort of
droops causing the pages to be difficult to turn.
Clearly some scores really need the extra length, but I find 11x14 a
very good option for a larger score.
I've been reading with interest the discussion of staff lists in Finale
2009, and I agree with Robert that the artifical limit of 4 staff lists
should be eliminated. Users should be able to create as many - or few -
staff lists as there are staff list-enabled expression categories.
