    Unless the setting in the advanced tab is set to Global, switching it on and off makes no difference at all.

    PLEASE tell me where this is....I can't figure out how to do this - have one leg patch with NO X-fade and one with.

    "To do this you need two patches, one with xFade switched on and the other with it switched off. This is done in the Advanced tab."

     

    Where in the Advanced Tab?

     

    Thank you!

    I must have something set up wrong then.  I have my detache & staccato patches set to velocity x-fade off in the advance/edit tab.  I have my long notes set to on and my fp/sfz's set to global in case I would like to add a crescendo by drawing in the velocity x-fade.  I am assuming this means that any line I draw in my CC that controls velocity x-fade should not affect those particular notes that have the velocity x-fade off. However, it DOES seem to still affect them both when the main velocity x-fade fader is switched on and off.

    All I am trying to do is have total control over the velocities of my notes and as soon as I draw in a x-fade curve to make a crescendo the lines I draw affect the volumes for all the notes after.

    Sorry if this sounds confusing - I'm having some trouble wrapping my brain around this and it seems like something that shouldn't seem this hard to figure out.

    EDIT: ok, never mind. I did have something wrong: even though I my expression CC was not assigned in my basic view fader, in the advance menu under control map it was still set to the same controller as my velocity x-fade and that was what was messing up my dynamics.  Now the detache/staccato patches I had switched to off are acting the way they should.  I won't delete this post though in case any else makes the same silly mistake.

    It works here and has done for years, so there is something else going on. It sounds to me as if you have an errant controller attached to CC11 or CC7, so that when you use xFade those controllers move as well.

    Without seeing your Preset, I can't really tell. Perhaps if you upload the Preset I can try it out for you.

    thanks DG - that was exactly the little oversight I made.  I went back and noted that in my previous post.   Now I can get back to work and actually accomplish something.  :)

    Excellent. Glad it's all working for you now.
