I understand about the memory issue, but it's an older computer and
probably not worth upgrading memory just for Finale. And I find it
discouraging if this is the case w/Finale, that they've added so many
bells and whistles they've made it too kludgy to use. I run mega-
multiple channels of midi and audio w/protools le, several plugins at
a time, etc. w/ no problems, and only once or twice have ever had to
alter setups to minimize CPU overload, because of added effects. And
I've NEVER had playback problems w/Smartmusic Softsynth before. So if
it's as Darcy says, and all sounds in Finale are now using a new
playback engine, somewhere therein lies the problem. But where?
Thanks for insights,
Bonnie

I also note, that the minimum requirement for Tiger (OS 10.4) is
256 MB and F09 is 512 MB (with Garritan requiring at least 1GB) so
the computer only has about 230 MB of ram to play with (if my
memory is correct that she said it has 1 GB). I'd still try to
find some way to use play back sounds that used as little memory as
possible.

Actually, I believe the new playback engine in Fin2009 uses Audio
Units for everything -- SmartSynth playback as well as Garritan
sounds -- so I suspect Bonnie's problem is in some way related to
her AU setup.

How so? Bonnie says the symptom exists with SmartSynth playback,
too,
which doesn't involve Garritan at all.
Good point, David.
