Finale 2014 for
There are several Finale features you may find useful when creating a fugue. First of all, remember that you can create intelligent copies of any motif, so that when you edit or re-notate the initial statement, all other occurrences change simultaneously; see Mirroring.
If you need many individual musical lines on a single staff, remember that you can have up to eight independent voices per staff (four layers, with two voices in each layer). For a more complete discussion of inner voices, see Multiple voices. Also keep in mind that you can superimpose two or more staves; use the Staff tool to drag one staff until its staff lines are superimposed perfectly on top of another. In both cases, you can adjust the positions of individual noteheads and avoid overlapping notes by fine-tuning measures with the Special Tools tool; see Note positioning.
