I have a score which calls for "rhythmic hand rubbing." What would you use from the basic Finale sounds to do that?

As for now, a snare drum it is.

Me again. I can't find anything in the available instruments to give me that shss, shss sound that I'm looking for. Any more ideas where I can look? I'm really lost at percussion.

Here's "snare drum brush." It's probably a little to short to sound like rubbing hands, though.

I was hoping that this from BOZ would have that but it doesn't.

Other than that, you may have to roll your own and create a Sound Font compatible library. It's not hard to do but not recommended for anyone on a tight deadline. The ARIA Player can play them back, however. Here is one of many tutorials on YouTube:

Here's a hand rub on YouTube.

Here's one you can download as a .wav

These can be downloaded as mp3
