(It was the comparison of this very piece that made me switch.)Īlso included is a 'straight' XML import to Finale 27, to get the SMuFL Finale Maestro. What this really reveals is my lack of patience before I go 'that'll do'! It shows what I didn't do in Finale, and what I didn't have to do in Dorico. Most of my time was spent manually adjusting the noteheads in bottom of p6 / top of 7. Yes, I could have aligned the p < f dynamics on page 5 in Finale, but I didn't get round to it. Lots of problems in the organ part: The slur doesn't accommodate the accidental in 23 there's clashing in bar 38 there's not enough space for the hairpins the double flat in 82 doesn't 'nest' well under the single flat.
(I did the Finale file on B5 for some reason.) I've labelled them with the apps, because it's obvious. Neither are the default app's options, and I've done a bit of work on both of them. Here's a PDF I did in Finale a while ago, so 'Maestro', not SMuFL Maestro and the imported XML in Dorico, with Finale Maestro font.
