That simple procedure (in Fin2012) presents no problems for me. Does the
staff need to be a transposing staff? I don't really understand what you
mean by "repitch it by holding down a new chord on the MIDI keyboard and
hitting Enter." When I do what I read you to be saying, nothing happens, so
there must be a step I'm missing.

To confirm once again, we are talking about Fin2012, right?
