Among my articulations, there is no buzz roll symbol (looks like a 'z'). How do I find this?

I don't know much about SMuFL but I wonder if the Finale update will make symbols like that one more readily available.

I don't seem to have the Bravura font, but I found that the 'z' in the Forte font is perfect. I inserted it into my articulations and it works well. I doubt if it would playback properly, but for my purposes, it doesn't matter.

1) I suspect that SMuFL-compliant fonts (like e. g. Bravura) generally have buzz roll characters in font slots in the region from #720 to #760
2) The buzz roll symbol can be found in the November 2 font, in font slot #479.
3) In the Shape Designer you can create your own buzz roll symbol.

In the Maestro Font Default File, the Z symbol for Buzz Rolls is in the articulations, slot 30.

P.S.: Looks like the same for Handwritten Font (Broadway Copyist). Articulation 30. It's not in the pre-created articulations in the Jazz Font, but you can add it. It is found in slot 122 in the Jazz Font.
P.P.S.: This picture compares the 3 fonts for the Buzz Roll Symbol
