). You can, if you wish, also use a dotted-line bracket.
A pedal marking involves two separate symbols—one
where the pedal is to be depressed (), and another where it’s to be released (). You can, if you wish, also use a dotted-line bracket.
There are two ways to create pedaling indications in Finale. The easiest method is to place them in the score as Smart Shapes using the Custom Line Tool.
If you only want to add pedaling to the
playback of your piece (via MIDI), you may prefer to use the MIDI tool.
No graphic pedal markings appear in the score, but you’ll hear the pedaling
on playback. Human Playback must be set to None to hear sustain indications
added with the MIDI tool. See
