Hi Will, appreciate the response. I took a look at the channels and even though the same number they are different. I went ahead and submitted a fixture request. I will bring to your attention that even though I could not get the laser to work in a live show, It didn’t seem to work in Finale 3D either. It is the Chauvet dual head laser. It does…Read More

The first thing to know, which isn’t necessarily obvious to a newcomer, is that fixture channel maps need to be an exact match.  For practical purposes, there’s no such thing as a near match.  It’s either an exact match, or don’t waste your time giving yourself a headache.  So the first step for you is to look up your laser fixture on this pa…Read More

Hi Troy, welcome to the Finale 3D forum!

Yes, that’s exactly the right approach.

If your fixture is not already listed by name/model on the Supported DMX Fixtures page, the first thing to do is look for a fixture with the same DMX channel configuration.

A good starting point is to look for fixtures in the same category with the same…Read More

Hi Drew.

That could be a reasonable solution for what I am trying to do.

This stems from having two full sets of labels, and having one label go on the cake and the other on the wire. Having double the amount of pages is becoming problematic.

Thank you for this suggestion; I’ll give it a try.

Finale 3D todavía no soporta efectos acuáticos de forma realista. La principal limitación es que actualmente los efectos atraviesan el agua en lugar de detenerse o interactuar con la superficie como lo harían en la vida real.

Una vez que resolvamos esa parte del entorno 3D, añadir los efectos acuáticos en sí debería ser relativamente sencill…Read More

Hi my name is Chuck, I run an small entertainment company and started using Finale a couple of years ago. Great program just need to learn all the tips and tricks.

Any plans to add lighting controllers to dmx equipment. Would be nice to be able to export to Chamsys MagicQ or MA

Quick update: The cake shot angles bug with whirls and other motion path effects is fixed in the 2026.05.26 beta release.

Would it be realistic to have a “running” change log while a show is open?  I know it auto saves every 5 min, I believe, but would it even be possible to track the changes made as the show is created as a separate “file” or “tab” or something like that?  Sometimes I have hit the incorrect keystrokes and changed something but unfortunately didn’t c…Read More
