Downbeats

You can control both aspects of Finale’s handling of downbeats: graphic and playback. For example, you might decide that one or all of the downbeats in your piece occur too close to the beginning of the measure.

If you’re using Finale for playback, you can alter the velocity and durational values for some, or all, downbeats by using the MIDI tool.
