KNOWN ISSUES IN FINALE

  • Since Finale 26.3.1, the issue below has been resolved.
  • The playback line in Finale is way ahead of what you hear.
  • The playback line is off-beat by one second because Finale doesn't currently latency compensate.
  • Since Finale 26, the issue below has been resolved.
  • When entering notes with your mouse or keyboard, there is a one second delay before you hear the sound of the note.
  • It happens because Finale doesn't currently report the transport playback state to plug-ins.
  • The result is that NotePerformer's read-ahead algorithms always remain active, even when playback is paused, causing a delay in sound output.
  • Glissandos may not playback correctly.
  • In the Human Playback Configuration, we must set Start/Stop Time to "No HP Effect", to preserve the written length of notes.
  • Unfortunately, the same switch negatively impacts glissandos.
  • Since Finale 27.3, the issue below has been resolved.
  • If your Windows User Account was named such that it includes non-English characters Human Playback Preferences becomes inoperable in Finale.
  • So, if you login to Windows by the name of (for example) François, Jörg, or 伟, you can use only the built-in sounds in Finale.
  • The only workaround that we know of currently is to create an alternative Windows user account using only A-Z characters to run Finale from.
