Two problems w. Sibelius and VSL SE+
Hi! I have two things that constantly bothers me in my current template. 1. I've never understood why suddenly some instruments stop changing articulations (or it seems it doesn't reset last used articulation). The fix for this usually is to open up Playback Preferences/Manual Soundsets and click Apply on all instruments in the affected instance. This doesn't work in my current template: Flute 2 stays on trills for some reason. 2. A strange problem have occured: it seems that Sibelius i many cases stops playing the note just a couple of millesects before playing the next one. This results in a small pause between all notes that aren't using the legato. This is highly annoying, any fix for this? Using: Sibelius 7, VE Pro 5, VI (not pro) Best, A

Hi snattack!
These aren't common problems you are describing. Also the way you are usually trying to fix it sounds a bit odd. Please make sure to use the latest Sibelius update (7.1.2). Also I'd like to recommend using the latest update of the "Vienna Symphonic Library" House Style and the "VE Special Edition PLUS" sound set. These files can be downloaded here:
http://www.vsl.co.at/en/68/141/460/576/655.htmWhen one instrument doesn't change articulations at all, it may help to add this instrument once again to your score. Then cut the content from the old instrument to the new one.

Hi Andi! Thank you for your response. The problem is that I need to remake the layout every time I change instrument ("copy part layout" doesn't cover it all) so it's a huge time thief constantly having to change instrument. I'll try updating, but I try not to in the middle of projects. These "non-common" problems (w. instruments not changing articulation anyway) have been in every version of Sibelius (from v. 5) in combination with every version of Vienna Instrument Standard, Ensemble (both standard or pro) on all computers and operating systems (Win XP, 7 & OSX) I've tried since I bought it several years ago. If this is a Sibelius problem, why the hell won't they fix it?@andi said:

Hi snattack!
Instruments that suddenly stop changing articulations are not a common problem. Either they work or they don't change at all, which is most likely caused by some wrong settings on the Manual Sound Sets page, wrong Sibelius instruments or wrong VI presets/matrices.
The Sibelius team fixed a few playback bugs in the latest Sibelius version (7.1.2). That's why I recommended the update.
Anyway, if you want to, you can send your score and playback configuration (xml file and data folder) to
and I will take a look at it. The playback configurations for Sibelius 7 can be found in the following folder:
Windows XP:
Documents and Settings\your username\Application Data\Avid\Sibelius 7\Playback Configurations
Windows Vista and Windows 7:
Users\your username\AppData\Roaming\Avid\Sibelius 7\Playback Configurations
Mac OS X:
Users/your username/Library/Application Support/Avid/Sibelius 7/Playback ConfigurationsBest,
