Good afternoon. I am a long user of Finale, since mid 90’s or so. I have used three generations of Focusrite audio interfaces and lately, I had to make a change due to a motherboard failure. Since the change, I have not been able to get good performance and frequent BSOD’s due to driver related issues. I waited for weeks from technical support and it was a joke and completely unhelpful. So, I decided to sell my Focusrite Clarett USB 2Pre and tried the SB AE-9. It has surprised me with the sound quality, but their are significant latency issues. I use Vienna Ensemble Pro as a host. The issues I have are always and have always been with ASIO drivers and I have been forced to use ASIO4ALL since 2003 or so. Finale has never accepted any of the Focusrite ASIO drivers and certainly not any from E-MU or Creative. That all said...
I am interested in hearing about solutions that do in fact work with Finale with the manufacturer’s ASIO. My orchestral templates run off of 4-6 NVME drives with up to 64 GB ram used. I am very well versed in the troubleshooting routines and have been doing them for years. What have you all found to work for you? Thank you for your thoughts.

I thought he might have wanted to use a Mic with Finale, but that doesn't seem likely.
My Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is not nearly as good as the Mytek , as a DAC.
(Also, not nearly as expensive...)
I only use it as a Mic Pre into DAW.
Over and out!

I have the FR 2i2, cheap.
There's a check box in Prefs that specifically addresses Latency.
I had it un-checked for some reason, and it was a MESS!
Re-Checked it, all is fine.
But what do you use it for with Finale?
I mean, a Dragonfly Dac will playback Finale just fine.
Do you use a Mic, or use the Line Level inputs for something with Finale?
I'm on Mac, so no ASIO.
