The staff is automatically configured to play using the first available playback device that has a patch containing a cajГіn sound. A standard 5-line percussion staff named CajГіn is added to the document. In the Instrument List tab, click Add Instrument and choose All > Percussion > CajГіn.

Fortunately, Finale makes it easy to add the instrument to your document because it automatically configures both display and playback for you.

You've been writing your latest masterpiece in Finale, and you've decided that it needs a cajГіn. Choosing MIDI/Audio > Reassign Playback Sounds, however, does reserve channel 10 of bank 1 for percussion. If the percussion instrument set to channel 10 is deleted, Finale does not change any other percussion instruments to channel 10 or otherwise shuffle channel assignments. Additional percussion instruments added are assigned to the next available channel (1-9, then 11-16, and then 1-16 on the next bank, and so forth.) Channel 10 on banks 2-8 are not reserved for percussion. To accommodate older MIDI devices that require channel 10 for percussion, the first non-pitched percussion instrument added with either the Setup Wizard or the Score Manager is set to channel 10, bank 1.
