Lee,

It's not Finale. It's the Native Instruments Kontakt Player. The Mac version sucks. Results are equally awful playing back GPO instruments from a sequencer.

What's chewing all the CPU? In Sonar, I can run 64-plus tracks of
soundfonts on the Athlon 1.4GHz system I built 4 years ago --
using regular
WMD drivers, not even ASIO. What's so intensive about GPO vs. any other
sample-based software?

It might be Finale. I've noticed that during playback, Finale eats 99% of CPU cycles, even on my 3.2 GHz P4. That makes it hard to even loop back and
record the audio from external MIDI devices if Finale is generating the
playback.
