    Please find attached a screen shot of the Violins 1 Expression Map after a fresh load of generated playback template. As you can see it shows CC2 as secondary control and not CC1 as it should be. For Percussion it is correct it shows CC1 and also loads VelXF rolls Mod (as used in the EM)

    Here's a screenshot of the Synchron Strings Pro Violins 1 expression map on my system:

    As you can see, for me it has CC1 and not CC2 like yours. This seems strange that yours does not match. This is in a new score that I've just made.

    Maybe you made some edits to the copy of the expression map in this Dorico file? What happens if you press the "Reset to Library Defaults" button at the bottom to reset the copy of the expression map in the Dorico file to match the system default?

    Hello Mavros!

    As mducharme has already pointed out, the expression map in your screenshot must have been modified. The Synchron Strings Pro expression maps that come with our Dorico Wizard have CC1 assigned as secondary dynamic. Please note that expression maps gets saved with your project. So if you load a project, the expression maps inside will stay as they have been before a fresh installation.

    I'm not sure which instrument you are showing in your second screenshot, but it's true that Synchron Woodwinds, SYNCHRON-ized Woodwinds and Synchron Brass work with CC2 as secondary dynamic and Synchron Percussion works with CC1 as secondary dynamic. That's no mistake. The auto-assigned presets are in line with this setting of the expression maps.

    Thanks that solved the issue and corrected a misconception I had relating the EM management by playback templates in Dorico.

    I indeed did not start with a new project. I took an existing full functioning project using the SY libraries in VEPro with my own EMs, switched to the Silence template and then to your wizard generated template but that apparently does not replace already existing EMs. If I start with a new project with the Silence template and then switch to the new wizard generated on it work correctly.

    Also a misconception regarding the second screenshot. I always put the Vel.-XF button on On for instruments with CC2 as secondary control but that is not necessary to generate the CC2 lane in Dorico.

    Many thanks. One keeps learning.

    Does the playback template for the new solo strings include added playing/playback techniques for the extended articulations in the library?

    Hello Bill!

    Only the Dorico default playing techniques and playback techniques plus some custom crescendos are used in the expression maps for Synchron Solo Strings.

    Thanks Andi. I don't suppose there's a handy list of which P/P map to which articulations?

    Cheers,

    Hi Bill!

    There is no list that is more handy than the expression maps themselves. You can always check them in Dorico under Library/Expression Maps, but I guess you already knew that. 😊 I don't have any other list.

    Hi Andi,

    I am missing the expression map for DA Virtuoso in the Wizard. I believe I have ticked the selection correctly. Maybe they slipped through?

    Thanks

    Hello RaPaSa!

    There is no dedicated Dorico Endpoint Configuration for Synchron Duality Strings Virtuoso. That's why it doesn't show up in the Dorico Wizard. A few of the Virtuoso articulations have been added to the Expression Maps, but most of them could only be added with custom playing techniques and custom playback techniques.

    Best regards,
    Andi

    Now that the new lyrical legatos are out for the woodwinds, are there new maps for those?

    If so I have to repeat the "Save Template" process to get these new maps into Dorico, or do they get updated simply by launching the Vienna Assistant?

    Is there some way of seeing if anything is new or changed without having to go through this process? Although I didn't like the old installer that much, it was date stamped so at least I could tell if there were changes (even though I didn't know what they were). Now I don't know how to tell if anything has been changed that I have to address.

    Hello mducharme!

    The new lyrical legatos will be integrated in the Dorico expression maps soon. To update your settings, you can always re-save your playback template. Currently there is no changelog for that. We will find a solution.

    I have created a playback template with only SY World Woodwinds chosen in the wizard. When I use it in Dorico keeps loading the SY Prime World Woodwinds instead of the full version and there also some instruments like the Koncovka flute missing. Does anyone know why? The endpoint configuration shown is also the one related to Prime. Is there no full version EM set for the SY library?

    Hi Mavros!

    There are no preconfigured Dorico settings for Synchron World Winds so far.

    Hello Mavros!

    Synchron World Winds is not included in Dorico Wizard and has never been. Maybe you have mixed it up with the "Synchron Prime World Winds" entry for the Synchron Prime Edition.

    What happened to the Prime Edition option in Dorico Wizard

    all of my other libs are showing up minus the BBO entries

    For now, uncheck "installed products only" in the Dorico Wizard and it seems to show up. Probably it is just not detecting the new v2 of Prime as the same library.

    The Prime Edition 2.0 content is not recognized in Dorico Wizard yet. It will be fixed with the next Vienna Assistant update which should come today or tomorrow.
