In order to specify a MIDI device (sound card or MIDI interface), you must first ensure it is properly installed on your computer. For details, consult your MIDI Device manual.

To specify the MIDI device

1. Choose MIDI/Audio > MIDI Setup. The MIDI Setup dialog box appears.
2. Specify the MIDI IN Device (from which you want Finale to receive MIDI input). While Finale can play back up to eight devices, it only records from one device at a time, and will not address the MIDI channels on all eight cards discretely.
3. For MIDI OUT or playback, specify the devices from the drop-down list. If you have more than one MIDI card installed, specify which one you want to carry MIDI channels 1 through 16 by entering the number in the Base Channel field.
4. Click OK (or press enter).
