Hello!

   Using Windows 10, Finale 25. I do quite a few custom ensembles (tin whistles and recorder groups for example) and am wondering how to customize the Setup list so I can preset these instruments, their custom transpositions and clefs, and the output sound they will be played with. As of right now, every time I write a great bass recorder part, I have to pick the part, and in the file manually change the clef, transposition, and output sounds to get the playback that I want for the great bass.

   This could also be said for more common setups, such as an orchestra trumpet section. I have a set of three trumpet sounds that I always use for my orchestra trumpet section, but from the setup wizard they all default to "Trpt Player 1" and I must manually change the playback in the file. This would also help in percussion mapping as many instruments don't sound properly being set from the wizard.

   Can I make a custom instrument from name, transposition, clef, output sounds etc and load a custom set into the setup wizard so I can save the time doing this process manually for every single file? I have tried a template method, and it still takes as much work as my specific instrumentation varies from piece to piece. Thank you!
