Errr... You can�t. What you can do is find a Soundfont file that you like it and use it instead of the default that comes with Finale. Now if you want Finale to play your synth with a particular sound of, say, saxophone, you have to look in the manual to figure out the patch number of the sound. Then you have to program an instrument in finale to send that patch change before playing AND turn off internal playback.
If the sound that interest you is not in the main bank of the synth it might be harder to tell Finale how to send the proper change but it can be done... with luck. Just out of curiosity, what synth do you have? Javier Ruiz. : > Ok, I realize this is a really basic question, but I'm a tyro at such > things.
