Can't help you with the PSR-36 - the only Yamaha we've got left is our
MU-80...

Not as a general rule - for several reasons - 1) most _serious_ work in
Finale is copyrighted work - and not publicly distributed. 2) most
_not-so-serious_ work is converted and distributed in SMF (Standard Midi
File) format - so the largest number of people can access the file
(Finale, of course has very powerful midi import capabilities). Of
course - all of the detail of the notation is lost in that format -
since Midi "converts" notation to note and controller "data".  So if you
are looking for some really good "notation" examples (i.e. still in
Finale or Enigma format) then try the following areas:

News Group:  rec.music.compose

FTP sites:
Peabody's Finale FTP Site: ftp.peabody.jhu.edu/pub/finale
"The Official" Finale FTP site at Sam Houstin State University:
ftp.shsu.edu

and one more posibility - and I'll admit I know little about this - so
you're on your own:    Peabody University is considered the academic
"home" for Finale - and they even have a program where students do
"contract transcription work" ---  so there is probably some pretty
serious "finale stuff" floating around that campus!  I only have one
contact address - and it's into the Contract Transcription department -
so proceede with caution - might empty your piggy-bank!

Hope this gets you pointed to something useful...
