NOTATIO

Hello, John and Octo If I'm engraving a duo piece (piano and another instrument), I generally use 3 system for the first page (title, subtitle, composer, etc.) and 4 systems for the rest of the pages. That works for the score, but not always the movement ends with exact 4 systems. I was wondering if...

Hello fellas! Hope you're all doing well. Would you know how to use empty spaces on a score that leftover from a movement? I'd rather use it and start a new movement than having just on or two systems and waste the rest of the space. That doesn't look much professional... Actually, I think that's an...

Hey John, Yes, exactly what I do. It just doesn't work... Finale just doesn't allow me to insert different rhythms from those I have previously chosen. When that happens, I often have to use the Text tool or Articulation tool to draw a note and "cheat" on Finale this way... the problem now...

ahahahah lol

I should ask my colleague about this, John... it's been over 10 years I haven't talked to her, she lives in other city far away from me. I hope she still remembers me...

Hello fellas,

How can I make tuplets with different rhythms on Finale? Like a triplet with one eighth-note and one quarter-note, or a triplet with one quarter-note and two sixteenth-notes? It's weird coz sometimes I can do it and sometimes I can't...

Thanks!

Good morning, fellas Yeah, that sounded strange to me too... I thought this term "microengraving" was common among professionals publishers. Maybe she's a professional and raises the detail level to the highest. Actually, I was wondering if that microengraving referred to a calculated kind...

Hey fellas,

A colleague from grad school engraved two sonatas for violin and piano of a XIX composer. She called her work as microengraving.
Does that really exist? What is it about?

Hi, John Thanks for you feedback. I have been working on engraving some works of this particular composer because they are almost all on manuscripts still, rarely performed, not simple at all to play and so unique. He died in 1914 at 30yo, so he didn't really have time to review his works, and yet h...

Good morning, fellas! Hope you're all doing well. So, here are some samples of what I've commented and worked on. These are manuscripts from the same composer, one from 1911 and the other from 1910.

Hey, John. Thanks again for the reply. I have been working on Finale again since December last year after a period of almost 20 years. Today I have experimented and found many solutions I wish I had 20 years ago, thanks to YouTube videos, Google and now this forum. I'm and amateur, still learning, s...
