Logic / Finale And Soundfonts With Powerbook 17? Options

[millerdg99]

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to use soundfonts on my Powerbook 17" G4. I can't even figure out if the built in audio card can handle soundfonts because i don't know what i've got built in. I have a Motu Firewire HD896 but i'm trying to use a notation program with soundfonts.

My main goal here is to be able to notate percussion parts for a drumline (marching snare drums, tenors, and bass drums) while accessing samples of a real marching line. There is a package for sale but it sais that I need a program and sound card which uses soundfonts (which i've never heard of before). I'd just like to know if Logic or Finale or even Sibelius would be able to pull this off on my Powerbook G4.

If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Thanks!
