[Finale] Export to MP3 in Finale 2011? and clef question.

2010-10-26 Thread Andrew Levin
Hello, all, I finally bit the bullet and upgraded Finale 2011 from 2009. Pardon me if you've already covered this, but I can't find an export to MP3 option. I'm perfectly capable of converting an AIFF or WAV file to MP3, but I'd like the convenience of one-stop shopping with this feature. The Fina

[Finale] capo chords

2010-10-26 Thread Greg Scheer
I was pleased to see that Finale 2011 finally has an accessible capo chord option, as I've never been able to figure out how to do this before. But I was not pleased when I found out that a G/B chord was shown as a D/Gb when capoed at the fifth fret. These enharmonic spellings are scattered thro

[Finale] TG tools and Fin2011

2010-10-26 Thread David Froom
Does anyone know about the full TG Tools for FinMac (or Win) 2011? Tobias usually has something for us by now. Has anyone gotten any part of the full TG Tools (not the free Finale- supplied ones) to work in any way with 2011? I forgot how much I've come to rely on them -- especially in the

Hi David, Tobias updated these for 2011 some time ago (after a little nagging on my part). I use a few of them and would find linked parts to be a burden rather than a help without the use of "Transfer Layout." (Best regards from our new location, [and my retirement from WWU] in Portland.) Ch

[Finale] {Spam} Slurs and articulations

2010-10-26 Thread Steven Larsen
I'm having trouble when I apply slurs to notes with articulations (staccato, accents, etc.). The slur attaches to the notehead, and I'd like it to float about (or below, as the case may be) the articulation. It's a royal pain to have to manually adjust every slur. I'm using version 2011 for Win

Re: [Finale] {Spam} Slurs and articulations

2010-10-26 Thread Chuck Israels
Not in Finale right now, so I am foggy on specifics but, in each articulation dialog, there is a check box for having the articulation appear inside slurs. Certain articulations appear inside by convention (staccatos and tenutos), others - like accents, do not and must be adjusted by hand (as f

2010-10-26 Thread James Cooper
This is something slowing me down on an orchestra score I'm working on. (I'm in Win 2011a) It looks like when I go the Articulation Designer window for an articulation, there is an option in the lower left corner "inside slurs". This works fine to have it checked for for staccato dots & tenuto acc

That helps (David) - thanks. I have to experiment more, but was having problems with collisions between the accents & slurs in this one section. I wonder if some of that was caused by the fact I put them in the 1st violins, then copied to the rest of the strings. I wonder if they would have come
