Implode Music dialog box

How to get there

Click the Selection Tool , and select a region of measures. From the Utilities menu, choose Implode Music.

You can also use a Selection Tool Metatool: press the 1 key with selected measures. Or, hold down I while dragging selected measures to a destination.

What it does

When you implode music, Finale condenses the music on the selected staves onto a single staff, a feature useful for creating piano reductions, for example. This dialog box lets you specify where you want Finale to place the imploded music.

New Staves Added to Bottom of Score. Select New if you want Finale to place the imploded music on a new staff at the bottom of the score.
Top Staff of Selection. Select Top if you want Finale to replace the music on the top selected staff with the imploded music.
Quant Settings. Click this button to display the Quantization Settings dialog box. The settings in this dialog box and the More Quantization Settings dialog box affect how Finale implodes your music. If you are not satisfied with the results of Implode music, check these settings. Options like Include Voice Two and Grace Note settings are used during the Implode Music process. See Quantization Settings dialog box and More Quantization Settings dialog box.
OK • Cancel. Click OK to proceed. Click Cancel to return to the score without imploding music.

Note: If you place the music into the top staff, the music in the selected region for that staff will be lost.
