Finale 25
Mac Mojave
I am writing a tune that switches from straight 8ths to double time swing. The swing expression does not seem to work by changing the feel to swing.
If there is more than one staff, go to the Expression window > Tempo Marks. Click on the Edit Categories button. In the next screen, where it says Score List 1, tap on the Edit... button to the right. Make sure that Check All Staves is checked. You will have to create your own Straight 8ths expression.
I did, and just replied!
SOLUTION: Linda had edited the existing Swing expression to include a tempo mark. When she did that, the tempo playback overrode the swing. I started with a bare swing expression, and entered the tempo mark as a separate expression. After editing the Tempo Marks category to show on all staves (since Finale never fixed that) all was well.
