NOTATIO

Hi NeeraWM, thanks! ah yes I see it now. As I am not expert in that area, I can only imagine it is something to do with the screen displaying the font... My display resolution is 30-inch (2560 × 1600). When I print my PDF it looks fine, and it looks perfect when I zoom right in on my PDF, but yes I ...

Thanks for your reply NeeraWM. 1. That is a very good question. I was curious about that as well. The Finale tremolo symbol that I used is the default version. I would prefer the tremolo to sit/straddle more artistically. It might have something to do with my staff size % reduction (it's a reduced s...

Hi everyone, After reading Gould p.222, I tried to improve on Exhibit A. Does Exhibit B look right? Any other improvements that I should make to Exhibit B? PS: The reason that the tie stops short of the note is because there are hidden playback notes (flutter tongue). I will delete the hidden notes ...

OK, thanks! Publishing parts in this era of transition between paper and digital makes for interesting times!
Cheers,

Hi all, I've noticed lately that more and more performers are putting parts on tablets and using bluetooth page turn pedals. My question is: Using a paper part, if a performer gets to the end of page 3 and sees Da Capo, they turn back a page and see page 1 again. To do that with a tablet (that shows...

Thanks everyone! To a man on a galloping horse, the Broadway Copyist flat symbol actually looks not half bad when placed in close proximity to Impact font. I am thinking I could possibly get away with it. Screen Shot 2023-09-01 at 4.03.27 pm.png I've downloaded FontForge and I will attempt to tweak ...

Screen Shot 2023-08-31 at 4.32.11 pm.png Hi everyone, I design my title pages in a desktop publishing program, and I use a font called Impact. I really wish Impact font included a flat symbol, so that I could write B :f instead of B-flat. Any ideas? I will look into designing a :f symbol to match I...

Thanks, RMK I'll give that D-flat option a go!
Cheers,

Hi all,
I have a trill (C to C#) and I noticed that Finale has provided a natural sign afterwards. Is the natural sign necessary there, or is it better that it be removed? Cheerio and thanks,
Hector.

Upon looking at some scores, I see that most don't adopt the rule about a single tremolo stroke on a stem having to intersect a staff line. Also, I am seeing that Kurt Stone page 148 last paragraph appears to place a stroke in a space on occasion.
Cheerio,
HP.
