(1) Set up a non-standard key signature for quartertones, with one
(2a) If you wish to input, via midi, the 12tet values and then do the
quartertone modifications by hand, then in Key Signature > Nonstandard
Key Sognature > Special Key Signature Attributes, set "Go to Key Unit" at 2.
(2b) If you wish to input, via midi, the 24tet values directly, so that
one acoustic octave is spread over two octaves of your midi keyboard,
then n Key Signature > Nonstandard Key Sognature > Special Key Signature
Attributes, set "Go to Key Unit" at 1.
(3) If you wish to hear the quartertones play back in realtime, within
Finale as an editor or sequencer, in Windows, send the midi output to a
virtual (loopback) port, and send the output of that port to InTun with
a quartertone scale file loaded. Or, send to a synth with a full
keyboard retuning to quartertones.
(4) If you wish to hear the quartertones play back outside of Finale,
export a midi file, and add the tuning as midi pitchbends via Scala.

Is there a way to enter quartertone music using a MIDI keyboard? I am
