To alter the attack points of downbeats

  1. Choose Window > Advanced Tools. Click the MIDI tool , and choose Note Durations from the MIDI tool menu.
  2. Select the region you want to affect.
  3. Choose MIDI tool > Alter Feel. The Alter Feel dialog box appears.
  4. Enter the desired amount of Start/Stop Time alteration (a positive or negative number) in the Downbeats By text box. The number you enter into the Downbeats By text box is the number of 1024ths of a quarter note by which Finale will shift the Start Time of each downbeat. In other words, Finale moves the audible location of each downbeat’s attack forward or backward in time, depending on the number you enter here.
