To transcribe
tuplets from a real-time performance
For full instructions on the use of Finale’s
real-time transcription tool, HyperScribe, see Recording
with HyperScribe and Transcribing
a sequence.
However, you may find these supplementary instructions helpful.
- Choose Quantization Settings from the MIDI/Audio
menu. If you’ve just recorded a performance in the Transcription
Mode, choose Quant Settings from the Transcription window. These settings
are used when importing a MIDI file, and transcribing with the HyperScribe
Tool.
- Select your smallest note duration.
If you will be playing nothing smaller than eighth note triplets, choose
the sixteenth note.
Tip: If your real-time
transcriptions consistently transcribe durations that are too large, lower
the smallest note duration, or choose More Settings from the Quantization
Settings dialog box. Place a check beside Sensitivity and choose the next
smallest duration to your smallest note duration. For example, if your
smallest note duration is a sixteenth note, set Sensitivity to a thirty-second
note.
- Click either Mixed Rhythms or Space Notes Evenly.
If your music will have a combination of dotted rhythms and tuplets, choose
the former. If your music will have only tuplets and evenly spaced rhythms,
choose the later.
- Click OK (or press enter).
Continue with the transcription in the usual way.
