There are all sorts of other notational elements that are not displayed in modern notation as they were in mensural notation, so isolating note values in this regard is curious. I can be fairly confident that two tied semibreves over a barline were originally a breve. Most editors don't use Mensurstriche or barless notation, because it IS more difficult to sight-read and rehearse, and actually doesn't convey that much useful information. Here's an example I did of a 'faux' 16th-century notation in a modern scored framework, as an exercise in what Finale can do.Īs Vaughan points out, you just turn off the restriction on extra notes in measures. But if you do it a lot, and you have to achieve it in Finale, Vaughan's is the way to go. I think I read that Lilypond has something called 'Mensurstriche layout' which would let you achieve this very easily and automatically. Your attached sample seems to come from Lilypond, at least the font is similar.

PS I've just seen Vaughan's well-informed response above, but I'll leave my post in for now.

It's most effective to do that via Google, not via the forum's own search facility, which produces fewer results. One of these experts will probably respond to both your posts in due course, but in the meantime you may like to try a search for the earlier discussions. There are also several regular users of the forum who are expert in the field of early music in Finale. You may be able to find these via a Google search of this forum. There have been previous discussions here about both your questions - and with solutions.

Hopefully this'll get you started.īTW, I'm glad to read that you prefer the long-note barless look for this kind of music. Then you can enter the barlines at will as expressions. Another possibility is to use long measures, with each measure being a short section (ending where the barline coincides in all voides) or an entire system. If you do, you'll need to perform extra steps either by muting the invisible notes or by creating an invisible playback layer and muting the visible one. This is pretty quick and easy, especially if you don't need playback. You'll need an invisible placeholder note at the beginning of the next measure. You can turn off Check for Extra Notes in Speedy and overfill the measures by entering the longer note values. However there are several ways of producing the kind of notation you describe. Finale is a measure-based notation program and will always look upon each measure unit as a kind of mini-database.
