[...] Thanks for that info. It is confusing! In my two Finale installations, the main machine (desktop) has only Kontakt Player 2 installed. The laptop, which I use on the road and rarely for heavy work, also has Finale GPO installed. I'd never used Finale GPO before since all the scores are set up on the desktop (which also accounts for why I thought this one thing -- Kontakt Player 2 -- was the "Garritan"). I'm not sure why GPO wasn't installed there. So I set it up the score for Finale GPO as an experiment on the laptop, but the Garritan sounds seem pretty bad and I don't think I'd use them anyway. But Finale GPO did *not* exhibit the blatting problem in those measures. Nor does the Finale synthgms.sf2. So it seems to be limited to the Kontakt Player 2 (which exhibits the same problem on both desktop and laptop). >Anyway, the point is that the player you are using might be where the >problem lies.
