Probably better to be posting this on the Notion forum...

Hello Jan!

The dynamics work without problems here. First I'd like to recommend updating to the latest Notion 4 version. The Notion team fixed some playback bugs in this version. If this doesn't help, did you load the Vienna Instruments from the VSL Special Edition menu in the Notion Score Setup?

Best regards,
Andi

Hello Jan!

The content of the Special Edition didn't change. So there is no "old" or "new" Special Edition. Anyway, if you have installed your content from the Special Edition DVDs, you can do a Library update which fixes a few bugs and adds matrices and presets for VI Pro users.

Actually I don't see any reason to use the Notion 3 presets.

Hi Andi,

When I look at the instrument presets in Notion, I'm perplexed by all the redundant sample content.  I know VSL had nothing to do with creating them, but wonder if you can comment on that?

Hello Bill!

The "fxp" presets are for the classic Vienna Instruments player, the "vipst" presets are for the new Vienna Instruments player and the "vipreset" presets are for the Vienna Instruments Pro player.

Hi Andi,

I don't mean redundant in that way, I mean that within a given "vipst" instrument, almost half the cells in the various matrices are sustain or staccato patches, etc

Hi Bill!

This question should be pointed at the Notion team then. They have built these presets. Anyway, it doesn't cause any harm. Even if a patch gets loaded multiple times, it only gets loaded to RAM once.

Best,
Andi
