![]() So let's go to the meanings of the two examples.Įxample 2.1: The said instrument (most probably a piano) will play all pitches from D to B and hold them for the duration of a half note. Or a long cluster which takes a long ammount of time, shown either in bars, or seconds, which can be shown as this: ![]() A short cluster (quarter, half, whole note maybe) can be shown as thus: There are two main ways to imply a cluster, and are distinguished by the length. Combine more than 2 to create glissandos as shown. Then edit it as described above (with the exception that all handles are already visible). In later versions of finale (2006, for example), you do not need to enter the expression tool, but simply enter a legato slur between 2 notes. Combining many of these small legato slurs, creates the above glissando. Thus you can create any corner you want with 1 turn. It will reveal 2 new handles, each of which moves half of the legato slur. In the shape design window, select the legato slur and the double click on the middle handle. * How to construct this wavy line: That is kinda tricky and takes effort, but I find the result very appealing to the eye, and the performers actually! In finale2000, on the expression tool -> shape (on the expression selection) -> edit No. If you try to choose only the 32nd, it will move the bottom beam, but not the above. In which case you will need to double click on the grabber and choose all choices up to the 32nd. Moving the right one will move the beams. clicking on the bar of interest will show to handles. * How to extend the beam lines: Go the speacial tools -> Beam Extention Tool. The speed of the first seven notes, doesn't really make any difference, but it is usually 32nds as this always creates the notion of. Specifically for the harp, I had to notate the first 7 notes (E, F, G, A, Bb, C and D), so that the harpist will know how to tune his insturment. Strings, a trombone (with limited range), maybe even piano. Here it is a harp, but this kind of glissando can work in any kind of instrument really. In the last 3 days there were 0 new threads and 0 reply posts.So, let's get started with something, that I particularly like :D A glissando. There are a total of 403,820 posts in 58,165 threads. See : feature comparison chart at the bottom of the pageĬurrently it is Sunday, Ma2:15 AM (GMT -5) Look at the feature comparison, you may find out something. I was talking about Finale.ĭon't know if you can do that in PrintMusic. I should have looked closer in your first post. The closer I have is "Mass Edit Tool", which is meant for selecting and copying, but only on the same staff. I have a Main Tool palette, but non of its tools is a "Note Mover". From left to right, I have:ĩ- XXXX (context dependant: if present, the menu takes the name of the tool selected in the "Main Tool" palette). In "Finale Print Music 2006", there are no "Tools" menu. I suspect we are not talking about the same application. So where is the Note Mover tool? I can't find it, and there is no mention of it in the PDF documentation.ĭon't know about the version you use, but I found the note mover documentation easily in the index of the documentation in the letter N. Real Time Finale Discussion - FinaleIRC.Com ![]() Then click into the measure with the notes you want to cross-staff, select the notes and drag them into the staff you want them in.įor question 2, I guess that you will have to copy them into the new staff. You select the note mover tool, then in the note mover menu click on Cross Staff. This need happens a lot to me, and I would think that moving notes around is a very basic feature for a music notation program. Even with copy and paste, I could not reliably paste at the same time point as copied from. How could I do that? I could not move notes across staffs. This could be whole measures, but more often than not, it's only some notes in the part. There are two cases when that occurs:ġ- Some notes are on the "left hand" piano staff but need to be played with the "right hand" (or the other way)Ģ- Some notes are played by a part, but I now want them played by another one, for example when one of my musicians is lacking technically and I want to simplify his part, but still want the notes to be played by another one. I need to move some notes from one staff to another, without changing their pitch, timing or duration. I searched the forum and the support section, I found a KB article titled "How can I notate cross-staff passages?" that seems to be what I am looking for, but I can't find the Note Mover tool in Print Music. This is with Finale Print Music 2006 for Mac. MakeMusic Forum > Public Forums > Finale - Macintosh - FORUM HAS MOVED! > cross staff: how to move some notes only from one staff to another one
