Simplify Key doesn't work in this situation, because Finale seems to prefer
sharps to flats when there's a choice. You have to change the Bb staff
transposition (or apply a Staff Style) to "Other", with values 2 and -10.

Hi there.
I would suspect that when C sharp key is transposed for Bb instruments,

whole band - reducing it for my octet here in Portland. Not an easy thing to
do, if you are interested in keeping as much of the power and textural changes
as you can. The
Hi Jef,
Easiest way to reproduce what I'm talking about is as follows:
- Setup Wizard
- Select an Ensemble: Orchestra (Full) + Select a Document Style: Engraved Style
- "Next" etc until done.
- Use the Expression tool to place the default "Adagio q = 40" tempo mark in
m.1 of the score. (Defau

Chuck,
If you need someone to help with the grunt work on any of your upcoming
