    Here's what I'm trying to do: I want to have a clarinet patch with 2 articulations that are controlled by my playing velocity.

    I'm using VEPro and I've opened an Vienna Instrument instance. In that instance of Vienna Instruments, I've selected "02 KLB_portado_short" in the upper slot and "03 KLB_portado_medium" in the lower slot" and I've enabled the "X button" between the 2 stacks. On the right side of the instance, I have selected "Velocity" in the "A/B Select." 

    My goal is to be able to swith from one articulation to the other by my playing velocity, but it doesn't seem to work correctly. Presently, it just plays the first slot no matter how hard or soft I play...I can see the velocity slider go beyond my setting (83) but it doesn't switch from A/B-Selesct.

    I know this is "user error" but if anyone can help, it would be most appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Rob

    I don't think the A/B selected is related to the slots. The A/B is to trigger variations inside the patch, like scale runs, up>down, down>up.

    What you need to use is the slot crossfader in the perform panel > Map Control, set it to speed.

    But I didn't find that setting very good, I noticed that the two patches are faded, and the result is a bit weird. I would suggest you add another cell to the matrix and control the vertical or horizontal span with speed. This will also allow you to set the specific point where the patch should change to the faster one.

    Errata: You want to use Velocity, I misunderstood for Speed. Anyway, what I said before stands, just set the Slot Crossfader to Velocity, or add another cell and control the span with Velocity.
