Occasionally, however, you’ll want to create a chord that Finale doesn’t ordinarily recognize, such as C V/11, or you’ll want Finale to think of a certain chord in a different way. The primary method operates according to the standard rules of chord theory and allows Finale to “recognize” almost any kind of chord it encounters-major, minor, augmented, diminished, suspended, sevenths, ninths, elevenths, and so on, even with alternate bass notes. Tip: Finale offers two systems of chord labeling. See also Fonts and Document Options - Fonts for help in choosing fonts to meet your needs. If you’re going to add chord symbols to your score, note that you can change chord suffix fonts either globally, by region, or one by one see the appropriate sub-entries. Even Finale’s guitar fretboard diagrams, which can be created automatically, transpose according to the key. Similarly, if you copy chord symbols to a passage in another key (or instrument transposition), they’ll be transposed when you paste them. Noteman says: See Adding chord symbols for a step-by-step tutorial on adding chord symbols in Finale.įinale’s chord symbols are intelligent with respect to key if you decide to change the key, the chord symbols are automatically transposed. Although you are not required to enter all parts of a chord symbol, Finale interprets the chord symbol’s root, suffix and alternate bass, in that order. A chord symbol is made up of one or more of the following parts: root, suffix, and alternate bass. When you use the Chord tool to type chords directly on-screen (or type them in the Chord Definition dialog box), Finale follows some simple conventions to interpret what chord symbol was entered.
