For such things (not that I do them all that often) I simply use two hands on the midi keyboard to hit all the notes I want in the chord. -- David H.

Re: [Finale] entering chords quickly !!
I use the same method David illustrated: you can press shift-lock plus value number on the keyboard, this will let you enter a complex chord of the desired value using both hands.
