Finale playback problem

 * The playback feature is not perfect, as the program will eventually truncate tied notes and therefore not play exactly what is written on the screen. This is unintentional (i.e. a bug in the program), and simply requires a quick press of the "rewind" button, as a "reset" will cause the playback to run at full capacity. Also, occasionally the playback feature will lock up and just play every note that it comes across as if it were a held note, and this will of course result in an unpleasant sound. A quick reset can also fix this. These problems, however, do not occur when the file is exported as a sound file playable on other applications.

I think for this problem your MIDI playback device might be as much to blame as Finale itself. With the Alesis QS-7 I've noticed various glitches, but none quite like the one you mention. Also, I've noticed that if ask it to start playback even a measure after the first measure of a pedal point, the instruments with the pedal point will be absent from the texture until the pedal point ends. Also, when every note gets held, the typical solution for that is an All Notes Off message. Del arte (talk) 21:56, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Breckinridge Hall


A tag has been placed on Breckinridge Hall requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. TM 04:10, 23 March 2010 (UTC)


 * I have declined the speedy deletion nomination, as that criterion does not apply to buildings; but I still do not think the article is appropriate, so I have proposed it for deletion, for reasons explained in the formal notice below:

Proposed deletion of Breckinridge Hall


The article Breckinridge Hall has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * there is no indication that this college dormitory is notable enough to have an encyclopedia article - see the List of bad article ideas #4.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing  will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. JohnCD (talk) 11:14, 23 March 2010 (UTC)
