Ah yes, I see what you mean. I think it's written that way in the book I learned it from, lo those many years ago. I even tried to write it like that, but I couldn't figure out how to make the program give me a pick-up beat.

... you do mean to put the first two eighth notes (A+B) together, and then start the first real bar with the first fourth (C), right?

Cool! Do you know how to make a pick-up bar (haha, that sounds like something else!) in Finale Notepad?

I think you'll have to forget picking anyone up on your Notepad, or maybe I'm wrong. Internet today is pretty awesome for that kind of thing I hear.dancinbunny
Speaking of which there was a young guy from Stockholm that bought a viola from Fiddlershop not that long ago.thumbs-up

 

With Finale you go under the menu "Document" and choose "Pickup Measure" then you choose how many beats that will be.

Yes, Alexander got in touch with me. He said you'd told him about me. We've been planning to meet up for a while now, but things kept getting in the way. Perhaps this week-end. Should be fun! I'm also hugely curious about his viola, because I don't think I've ever actually seen one live!

Thank you for the Finale instructions! I'll see what I can do tomorrow. smile

Oh, and since we're still in my ghostbusting thread, let's get back on topic: Did you get my file that I sprended? I've never used Sprend before so I'm uncertain about the whole thing...

I got it Alma. Thanks so much for doing it and sending it. Imagine that you participated after such a short period of playing. Bravo!!!

Let me know how the duo ends up with you and Alexander :-) I believe that learning with others makes it that much funner.

I agree. Thanks for "setting us up". :D

With Finale notepad there is no pickup measure in the Document menu. What I do is just insert rests before the pickup note or notes. If you will be repeating just make sure you put a repeat bar after the pickup note measure.
