Hi Andi,
I'm having some real difficulties getting the percussion mapping to function correctly in Sibelius. I have added the recent Sound Set Pack. I am presuming this updates the xml files and updates the VSL House Style. I have worked with this in the past successfully but now am really struggling and frankly finding myself yet again spending precious days trying to make Sibelius function seamlessly with VSL.
I seem not to be able to get many of the patches to map from Sibelius. I have experimented with cymbals and drums. For instance in the snare drum patch, snare off and rimshot seems to not trigger given the commands indicated in the manual. I've looked in the SSE and the mapping seems fine. So no idea where things are falling apart.
Also, I managed to get the cresendo described above to work successfully in the past but have now spent an entire day struggling to insert a functioning crescendo cymbal into a score. I'm really lost at this stage. Has something changed with more recent sound sets? I really fail to see what I am doing wrong but any guidance would be appreciated. None of the techniques that have worked in the past work any longer.
Help much appreciated.
Juergen
