You can add SCSI if you must.
I had forgotten about Firewire and didn't know that there were Firewire MIDI interfaces. I think Chris ought to test a Firewire MIDI interface to see if it solves his problem. If it doesn't, then, yes, it's surely a problem in Finale, either internally, or in relation to the OS. But I still think contention on the USB bus is probably the source of the problem. -- David W.
