Hey All!

I just got Finale and LOVE it! But wait, there is a catch.... I have a 90sec song that I created using keyboards. I need to divide a 4 track sequence across 13 staffs for an orchestra to read. I am looking for the quickest/easy way to do this. My only thought so far, after scowering the manual, is to copy my woodwinds midi track across all four finale tracks (flute, oboe,clar, Bassoon) then to delete the extraneous notes from each track, leaving each instrument to play whatever notes in the chord I assign them. This seems the long way around though since it seems I will have to delete notes only one measure at a time using the note mover tool. What am I missing here? There has got to be an easier way!
Thank you!!!

Go to Mass Edit/Mover. Highlight the staff you want to work with. From the drop-down list select Utilities, then Explode Music. Select your options and click OK.

It'll help, but keep in mind you'll probably still have to do some editing afterward.

Scowering, v.:

A gerund created by combining "scouring" and "glowering." Those who scour the Finale OLM often find themselves glowering at the documentation; hence this term.
