I have been dealing with a Finale issue for a long time, and have decided to ask here if there's a fix or if it's a permanent bug:

1. I write a score normally in Finale. Playback in GPO is fine.

2. I extract a part and play back the part - playback for the part works fine.

3. I go back to the full score but when I play it back, the sounds for all the Garritan instruments except the one extracted are gone.

The only "fix" I have found is to choose 'reassign playback sounds' from the MIDI/Audio menu. However doing this does not save the previous score settings and I have to remix and reselect some instruments.

Any help or insight greatly appreciated!!

For the future, one thing you can do is save the setup for each bank used in a score. Then , if for any reason, the instruments get deleted, you can just reload the setup, bank by bank. This could save a lot of time.
