My Next Video............................................

Howdy folks.

So, one thing I decided not to mention during the production of my Facebook video was that I was also slowly working away on my followup at the same time. In fact, I'm already about 70% through the script.

For those who have been asking for this for the last 5 years... yes.... it's time. I'm finally now working on the Finale video.

This one will be out a LOT faster, so you can expect to see it in December (optimistically) or January. Just sayin'.

I should mention that I'm also going to be interviewing people while making this video, so if you are a Finale user, please add a comment below and I'll likely be in touch.

Thank you all so much for the ongoing support & also, welcome to those who've recently joined too. I appreciate you more than you know.

Listen, I'm cooking dinner right now and it's stressing me out because I don't know how long to roast parsnips for, so I need to go figure that out. If anyone has experience with roasting parsnips, please comment also. Finale or roast parsnips. That's all I'm going to accept.

Thanks again!

Martin

After that Facebook video, a video where you unload on bad UX design decisions was much needed. I was even going to suggest reviewing Linux DEs, just because it would be like shooting fish in a barrel.

Fair enough, and WOW, 49 minutes?? I imagine there's gonna be a lot of... criticism 😅

Musicombo

I’d say it’ll be closer to 49-ish mins. It’s already shaping up to be quite different to the rest. I don’t really want to dwell on the Dorico deal too much. It’s worth mentioning… but in truth, it’s just a good business move from Steinberg. If MM are going to throw their users under the bus, why shouldn’t Dorico try take advantage?

Tantacrul

Very interested to hear how you will handle MakeMusic endorsing Dorico... A mention of MuseScore working on features aimed towards the Finale community is well-warranted!! I'm assuming the length of your Finale review will be much closer to your Sibelius review, am I right?

Musicombo

210°C to 220°C in the oven for 40-45 minutes till they are as ready cooked as all the great videos you've done for us so far. Absolutely looking forward to the Finale video a ton!

Not a Finale user... I'm definitely not in finale's target audience as a piano-roll-brained knifehead, though I'm in this video's target audience:) It's always sad when an old app is no longer under development (especially after staying afloat as Midisoft Recording Session/Studio/Plus and others vanished to the floppy collections of Gen Z'ers with parents who had computers in the 90s), and I'm looking forward to hearing what you think is good, bad, and ugly about it. My Mom apologized for steering me away from her Cakewalk floppy since she thought at the time I wouldn't learn anything from an interface with no resemblance to anything you'd think was taught in school... that's how I even know what Midisoft is, and man, was that program so limited, and man, does Finale look so similar.

I don't suppose this is news to you, but just in case: https://www.violinist.com/blog/laurie/20248/30107/ An opportunity for Musescore, I suppose. Do you plan to cover this closure and its knock-on effects in your video?

Beeko

I make parsnips peeled and cut into sticks, coated with garlic, olive oil, pepper and salt, rosemary if possible, in the oven for 240c for 30 minutes

Kiwi

Oh right, i knew there was something boggling my mind all those years. Excited for you next video oh and good luck with your roast

miukxi

CANNOT WAIT for the Finale one. Please do feel free to liberally add extra snark.

David Das

Will try this as well :D

Sébastien Le Maguer

Timing IMO: until they start looking pretty brown at the edges. I like them with bits a notch down from charred but still creamy in the center. Hooray for Finale video!

GC

I usually separate the tails, then quarter the big tops and remove the woody centers, which gets five uniformish (if small) pieces for even cooking. If you don’t mind the tail ends getting a little burned, just let them go with the potatoes, otherwise check them often and pull them when they stop being crunchy

William Bundy

Honey and salt. Will do. Cheers!

Tantacrul

Cut em thin and slap some honey, veg oil and salt on those bitter bois and roast the body of Christ out of them 👏👏👏

Aaron Bolger

I parboiled the potatoes for sure. I like to boil them into a near slop before adding them to the fat. (I have a lifetime of experience with potatoes [insert cliche here]). For the parsnips, I just cut them in half.

Tantacrul

So excited to see this!

Stuart Izon

Problem with vegetables—it depends how you cut them! I like to treat them a little more gently than carrots, because of the higher sugar content they burn more easily. Did you parboil them? Separating the roasting/browning/crisping from the cooking part makes it easier to control both. I would start at like 15 minutes at 200-220C and test for tenderness/burning, then repeat

William Bundy

I don't know anything about parsnips but by god am I here for the Finale video.

Adam Spiers

220°C for 40 min or until they are easily pierced with a fork!

Nick Clifford

IT'S HAPPENING!!!
