Note: For other ways to create a swing performance see Swing Playback.

To notate swing performances (HyperScribe)

1. Choose MIDI/Audio > Quantization Settings. The Quantization Settings dialog box appears.
2. Select a Smallest Note Value. See Quantization Settings dialog box for more information.
3. Select Space Notes Evenly in Beat. Finale will notate swung eighth notes as normal eighth notes, but will accurately notate triplets if you play them.

   It’s a good idea to tell Finale beforehand exactly how you want the triplets notated—whether or not they should have a bracket or slur, and so on. Instructions for defining the default tuplet appearance can be found under Document Options-Tuplets.

4. Click More Settings. The More Quantization Settings dialog box appears.
5. Select Soften Syncopations. See More Quantization Settings dialog box for more information.
6. Click OK twice.
7. Record your performance. See Recording in HyperScribe–To record into one or two staves.
