Hi,

I am glad you were able to provide a solution for this problem. Is using the 
expressions for pizz., arco, etc. provided by Finale an example of the use of 
HP?
 
Thanks,

a non-vibrato piccolo.

The easiest way to do it is to set up the different sounds you want on 
different tracks. You can put an invisible expression in (either blank, or with 
a name that you hide). When you make the expression, under playback, you set it 
change the channel. Finale/Garritan can have four banks of 16 channels each, 
numbered (under playback channels in the the expression playback section) 1-16, 
17-32, 33-48, 49-60. So you set up the Aria player with exactly the sound you 
want on separate channels, then create the channel-changing expressions, then 
pop them in. And don't forget to create an expression to change back to the 
primary sound!

Thank you for that -- I'll give it a whirl.  For now I made the layer 1 -2 idea 
work.  Each layer with a different channel.  Channel 1 is KS pizz. channel 2 is 
arco.  The program seems to remember when using spot playback.  Not sure why 
and not sure I can extend it to the further 2 layers without severe confusion 
--- so your method should work better.

Hi,

I seem to be able to obtain the effect using the expressions as provided by 
Finale?

And I didn't have to use the keyswitches.
