I set up a Drum Set staff using the wizard. The snare drum notes don't enter
correctly using the default Drum Set percussion map. If I enter rests in
simple entry, toggle the up and down arrows until it reads "Snare Drum,"
press ENTER to insert a note, the correct notehead is displayed, but the
sound that comes out is incorrect. The sound is of a bell tree, as far as I
can tell. It's MIDI note C5 (which some documentation on the web don't even
label as being part of a MIDI percussion sound). All other
instruments/sounds/noteheads behave correctly.

If I switch to another default Percussion Map, like Orchestral Percussion,
the snare drum behaves correctly.

In the previous versions, you used to be able to define a percussion
instrument by having Finale "listen" to your MIDI input. Is that capability
gone? Basically, I need to make the Drum Set Percussion map learn my MIDI
controller's snare drum sound.

It's late and I'm tired of trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong, or how
I can fix it. Any ideas?
