I've got finale 2011 hoked to my Yamaha Clavinova to write music and playback the music I'm writing. It's communicating well with the Clavinova when I'm entering notes with the speedy entry but when I want to hear it back, instead of playing what I wrote, finale activates the Clavinova to play demo music that came pre recorded on the instrument instead of playing the music I wrote. When I click on the playback control button the cursor moves through the music but it makes the Clavinova play Bach's Invention n. 1, not what I'm working on my Finale. This is driving me crazy!!
Does anyone know what's causing this?

What do you want to play Finale through?
Make sure it's selected in Device Set-Up.

You might try to turn off Human Playback. This is responsible for a lot of additional MIDI data. Although I haven't heard of a possibility to start demo songs via MIDI, it's worth giving it a try. Does turning off HP change anything?
