I figured it out. The midi setup/midi out/match on/off needs to be checked. That solved the problem immediately. Well, I guess one must try everything to figure out this program sometimes.
Thanks for the help.

Check your MIDI settings and make sure you are not playing Finale thru native instruments (i.e., uncheck this line). Check your Window/Instrument List and make sure that for every independent instrument you want to hear there is a unique instrument name and channel, and that each channel corresponds to a unique General Midi (GM) sound.

I tried to play a finale file with the midi sounds only, and it wouldn't play. I then was able to change the midi settings and have it play on GPO. Is there a way to make finale play midi sounds only? This would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.
