How to get there

From the Document Menu, choose Sync and Video Options.

What it does

Use settings in this dialog box to control how Finale handles MIDI Sync and SMPTE MTC synchronization with other devices and the movie window. This dialog box allows you to, for example, adjust the base time and MTC frame rate.

In the event that the external sequencer is playing a sequence of its own, there’s a danger that your synthesizer will be confused by duplicate MIDI data being generated by Finale and the sequencer. Using these options, you can specify what kinds of MIDI data you want Finale to transmit, so that you can avoid simultaneous transmissions of the same kinds of data to the same synthesizer. Choose Send Patch Changes During MIDI Sync if you want Finale to transmit any patch changes you’ve created in your score as it plays back. Choose Send Continuous Data During MIDI Sync if you want Finale to transmit continuous data (use of the pedals, pitch or modulation wheels, aftertouch, and so on).
