To correct erratic MIDI playback

If your score has many chords, consider using the MIDI tool’s Randomize command to offset the notes’ attacks (Start Times) slightly from each other—not enough to hear, but enough so that your MIDI system doesn’t have to handle many notes being struck precisely together. See MIDI Tool menu.

If you notice Finale missing notes or instruments during playback, Garritan Personal Orchestra may be exhausting your computer’s resources. You can disable GPO at any time by unchecking Play Finale through Audio Units under the MIDI/Audio menu. To use Finale’s internal SmartMusic SoftSynth, from the MIDI/Audio menu, choose Device Setup > Internal Speaker Playback, and then SmartMusic SoftSynth Playback from the Playback To pop-up menu.
