I am having a severe problem with Finale's audio playback.
Firstly, whenever I use MIDI to play the sound, no sound plays at all. Secondly, when I use VST, I have to use to SmartSynth soundbank. Even then, the audio is strange. It has a low-quality, static-y sort of effect to it. Finally, whenever I have Finale open, i can't play any other videos or anything - it claims "Audio Render Error".
What's the deal here?

The last is a fact of using ASIO. You can instead use a different driver, like DirectSound, or else install a different ASIO driver that lets two processes share, like FlexASIO. Maybe DirectSound will improve your audio quality as well. MIDI/Audio->Device setup->Audio setup.
