Isn't the same thing possible in Finale, with a little bit of

Define a pizz expression that changes to the Pizzicato Strings GM sound, and then define arco to switch back to String Ensemble.
My "pizz" playback effect is indeed to change the instrument patch, but I have "arco" to change back to violin, " arco" for viola, " arco" for 'cello and " arco" for double bass. They print identically, but are distinguishable on display if you can see their handles. I don't think I invented this, but can't remember who suggested it.

I use "pizz<VlnI>", "arco<VlnI>", "pizz<Vc>", "arco<Vc>", etc. In Finale 2004 you can drop the brackets and use the hidden text attribute.

In Finale2004 you don't even need the hidden text because you can create a note to yourself that shows up in the Expression selection dialog so you can tell which one you are choosing immediately.
