I appreciate that you offer a bunch of threads for me to read and try "solutions" to this problem; however, THEY DON'T WORK!

I was one of the trouble shooters for Finale in its early stages.  Thierry was my personal developer to whom I reported issues with.  I became a trouble shooter when I found four different issues with Finale that no one had ever found.

That being said, I KNOW FINALE!  I've been using it for MANY years, and I am sick and tired of the later "developers" fixing what isn't broken.  What is wrong with you people that you can't leave well enough alone??  I'm with the guy who says he's making a definite change ASAP.  I have a show I'm writing for that will launch in September, writing a whole horn section, and I can tell you now that I am BEYOND angry.  I'm absolutely LIVID at the time this is costing me.  If I didn't already have the base charts written in Finale, I would've been gone already; however, I'm embellishing charts that I wrote years ago.

I have TRIED all the angles, and nothing is working.  I know about Expression tools, how to edit, how to create.  I know about the hierarchy of commands for tempos / adjustments, I know about the  playback "none" vs standard or any other style.  SET IT TO NONE!  I don't need to hear Finale try to SWING!  Finale doesn't SWING.  I can hear that in my head.  I want to know that all the notes are in the right place, and they will be interpreted and played back by the musician in the manner I have chosen.

I am SO pissed at this point.  FINALE...wanna reach me and talk about this???  DoubleB10@aol.com.  That's how I'm registered.  I'm really on the edge with this company, and I am SO ready to walk and would at this very moment, if ONLY I could.
