Windows 7 Finale 2014.5

I've got a three player percussion section (so three separate percussion staves), one of whom will be covering wood block and tambourine (for starters). No matter what I do, I can't seem to add a wood block in to any of the percussion maps and get it to play back. I've added the note in the MIDI menu, I've added it to the percussion map in Score Manager, but no luck.

This is a transcription for concert band of a piece originally for orchestra. In the original I seem to have done a workaround with claves from the Marching Band map, but I can't seem to find that option here.

Are you using Garritan?

You can do both with the Jazz Fusion set, but maybe you are looking for a different Tambourine sound. If so, you can actually set things up to share 2 sets (2 maps) on the same staff. However, it is not for the faint of heart.

Anyway, since there are different options, we probably need more information.
