If you hear the wrong sounds for one or more Instruments during playback, a change to the channel assignments were required when you assigned sounds on the other platform, which prevents Finale from being able to restore the original sound configuration. If you don't notice any incorrect sounds during playback, you can leave the assignments alone (with the incorrect display in the ScoreManager) in order to transfer back to the other platform without needing to change sound assignments again. But, at the same time, Finale has remembered the original sound configuration, and plays the sounds as they were originally assigned on Windows. For example, if you created a document on Windows, then moved it to a Mac and changed some sound assignments in the ScoreManager, then saved and reopened it on Windows, Finale displays the sounds you defined on your Mac in the ScoreManager. It plays you music using the expression and nuance of a human, even if it's computer simulated.Įven more, if you enter a lyric verse, the application will automatically space the lyrics under the notes, and they will appear exactly as they are printed out.A: This can happen when moving files across platforms and back.
