How do I export higher quality audio from Finale?

Please give me your advice. I have Finale 2010, and I want to create some decent quality audio. I usually just export my Finale file to a wav file and call it a day. It works well enough to convey the basic notes, but the quality just isn't where I want it to be. I have attached an example of the highest quality piano sound I am able to achieve from this process. Violin sounds even worse.

Does anyone have any tips for how to make a better wav (or mp3 or midi) file? I can write music just fine, but I don't know much about the technical side, so please treat me like a newbie. I'll take any suggestions you have, especially ones that aren't too expensive.  Thanks in advance for any advice you offer!

Does Finale 2010 even come with garritan? I thought they only shipped it with 2012 and later. In any case, the garritan library that comes with Finale pre-packaged is not that great. That's why I purchased Garritan Personal Orchestra. Not the best sound library, but it's cheap and it gets the job done (plus I love the piano and wind samples they've got).

It came with something but I can't remember what it was....but it's better than smartsoft

 

After doing research, Finale started shipping with limited garritan sounds with finale 2008. Still not the best sound samples...but better than MIDI or whatever else.
