When you’re using HyperScribe to notate real-time performances, you may find grace notes in the transcription. The problem is one of quantization—Finale is transcribing too precisely. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution.

To eliminate grace notes from a transcription

1. Choose MIDI/Audio > Quantization Settings. The Quantization Settings dialog box appears.
2. If you’re importing a MIDI file, in the Import MIDI File Options dialog box, which appears after you have chosen your MIDI file to open, click Quant Settings. The Quantization Setting dialog box appears. If you’ve told Finale not to display the Import MIDI File Options dialog box during a File Open, you can select Quantization Settings from the MIDI/Audio menu.
3. Click More Settings. The More Quantization Settings dialog box appears.
4. Select either Remove Grace Notes or Convert to Real Notes. See More Quantization Settings dialog box for details.
5. Click OK twice.
