As a long-time trombone player, serving in a
(British) army band during the 70s and early 80s,
I was wounded and unable to play for some
time. Not wanting me to go to waste, they had
me on percussion, mainly tymps - I couldn't play
drums as it required coordinating 3 things at
once... I

Great story! You must have started to think you right arm was

I've been focusing on Finale but I now realize the problem is elsewhere!

The keyboard is turned off and all of a sudden finale is playing back with some
instruments transposed a semitone lower.
My last action, before malfunction reappeared, was closing the Playback
Controls window and starting playback with space-click!

Probably time to upgrade from that 1720 version of Finale (the 'Handel

I've got some staves playing back a semitone lower than how they should be
performed and no transposition
Is it possible you have an expression set to pitch bend? Like a scoop or a
fall, or maybe a gliss marking that isn't resetting itself like it should?
Or if it is only one sound source, check the pitch wheel. Sometimes my cat
walks on my keyboard pitch wheel, causing me all kinds of grief until

I did upgrade from the Monteverdi to the Howard Shore (Finale 2011), but, if
necessary, I'll go for the next step...

I used to have this problem form time to time and found that quitting and
restarting Finale (which reloaded the instruments) often cured it. You might
also try Reassign Playback Sounds from the MIDI/Audio menu. If that doesn't
work, you may have a corrupted preference file. Deleting that and
I have found that if I am using pitch bend for glissandi, and I stop playback
in the middle of a glissandi, the pitch bend gets stuck and that track plays
back lower until I muck around with it.

Pitch going flat on the trombone patch? I can help you with that! Make
sure you've got the slide lock on!

Unfortunately it happens even if I change instruments; I tried to reassign new
instruments and selected a new channel too, but the problem still lays there.
Probably there's something corrupted as some of you have suggested; I'll
probably rebuild a new document and copy paste just the notes
Hello, I'm in a muddle trying to find out how to avoid a peculiar, weird

I've got some staves playing back a semitone lower than how they should be
performed and no transposition has been set on them.
Quitting and reopening finale doesn't fix the problem.
Any clues?
Are you using a MIDI device for playback? If YES, try doing a check
of each channel's settings. My MIDI (Kawai K11) has an option for
factory reset
