Re: triplet problem

In Simple Entry Options, Uncheck "check for extra notes."
When you are done with the triplets, RE-Check it!

Re: Unwanted Finale Playback Volume Changes

That sounds like "Auto Expression", or some such in HP Prefs.
Try unchecking it.

Re: Aria Player Control settings

Hi Buon Tempi,
Right, I have!
I get the 5 Knobs with the Control Setting.
Once I got it open to show the Stereo Stage and EQ Info.
Can't find it again ever since!

Re: Aria Player Control settings

To access the stereo stage and EQ controls in the Aria Player, navigate to the "Controls" tab within the player interface; you'll find dedicated sections for "Stereo Stage" which allows you to adjust the perceived spatial placement of the sound, and "EQ" where you can control the frequency response ...

Re: Aria Player Control settings

Thanks all!
The page I "found" was for Stereo Stage and EQ.
There is also the Knobs only, that always comes up, that's not what I found the other day.
Can't reproduce it.
The File was for 4 Clarinets. So Clarinets must be OK, it worked once!

Re: Can't Get Clave Sound in CRAP v27

I got Claves to sound in F 27/Ventura.
The notes have to entered Above the Line in the Staff.
When entered On the Line, no sound.

Hi All, I can navigate to the Aria Player with various settings choices. I can't get the Control View to open up to show Stereo Stage choices.

Hi John, I switched to F 27 and I'm very happy with it so far. Actually, it skips around a little too. But in F 25 it did it a lot and definitely slowed me down.

Hi Buon Tempi, Here's a screen shot of the Aria Controls on my F 27. No Stereo Stage or Equaliser. I use Measure Expressions for Dynamics, and Pan Inst, and use Matrix Reverb set to almost dry, medium room. OK, no screen shot, get error message.

Hi ttw!
Are your settings for a Windows Computer?
I'm on Mac Ventura, and there are no "Stereo Stage" or "Equaliser" settings in Aria player.

Re: Swing Issues

Hi,
There aren't any notes in your file!
Swing Expressions need to be applied to all staves,
I only saw it at the bottom stave.

Try Jazz HP setting.
Latin is always even!

Re: Finally got F 27.4.1. for Mac!!!

F 27 on Ventura works fine. F 25 would skip around in Scroll View, which slowed me down and fairly annoying. I don't think F 25 was a good fit with Ventura. But F 27 is stable that way, sounds good, maybe better than F 25 with Garritan Inst. Am I the only one here who likes it? I haven't encountered...

Re: Quickie "Giant Steps" voicing

Maybe you should have spent 15 minutes!
Several wrong and /or incomplete voicings.
And if you change a chord, the Chord Symbol should be changed too.

Well, I have had NO problems with F 25, except that it skips around some in Scroll View. I've seen lots of complaints about F 27, it remains to be seen if I will like it. I'll certainly use one or the other, and have no need of further updates. It gets the Job Done for me! If I were a Professional E...

A bit of an uphill battle, the Dorico Download failed. F 27 wasn't listed on my Account at M.M. But I re-registered today, and there it was! Registering the Software required that I write down my 13 character Serial Number, Copy/Paste didn't work. I'd forgotten how many steps are involved! F 27.4.1 ...

I'm still using F 25 on Ventura, 13.6.9. It Prints and Plays back fine, but in Scroll View it skips around a lot, I'll enter something in a wrong measure because it jumped. And it skips in Simple Entry, I'll have to go above, below, above, below before getting the correct leger or staff line. Annoyi...

Re: Personal view of MM & Finale demise

I'm going to keep using Finale.
If I can get the final F 27 version, I'm on F 25,
I'll be happy.
Finale does everything I need.
I have no need of cross grades, upgrades or updates at this point!
Except to get F 27!
And I can live with F 25, if it came to that.

Finale won't accept the Serial # of my F 25.
In fact it says I have NO products to cross grade from!
I tried to register my software with the Serial Number in "About Finale."
No Go!
