    Hi Stefan

    blimey, i didn't even know you could do that....its going to save a LOAD of cutting and pasting!

    I've tried to set that up, but cannot for the life of me work out what i need to do. Could you give me an idea of how i'd set that up, as i assume i need to enable 'Matrix CC' in the options of VI Pro, but no matter what i do it won't change from 'off'

    Kindest regards

    Hi Paul,

    I made a screenshot.

    Should work that way if VI oder VEnsemble is connected to Sibelius.

    Hi Stefan

    Thanks so much for the screen shot mate.

    I'm using Sibelius, Vi Pro and Vienna Ensamble and everythings cool with the template im using, but for the life of me I can't get the Matrix CC to change from 'off' (in the options tab bottom left of master settings..the one you have got switched to 25)

    Any idea how i get it to turn on?

    I really do appreciate you help

    Kindest regards

    Did you change the setting (one of the red circles) from keyswitch to program (prg)?

    Then you have to doubleclick into the MatrixCC button. then you can edit the value.

    This setting is fixed in my startup setup, so I actually do not remember any troubleshooting I might have done previously.

    Hi Stefan

    Mate...thanks so much for your help

    i've got it sorted now. I had changed the setting from keyswitch to program change, and double clicked the MatrixCC button, but no drop down appeared, so i inputted '0' into the text box that appeared, the BOOM...sorted with the ability to change the CC's mate

    Thanks again for your help....i'm off to experement!

    Have a good one fella

    Stefan,

     

    That was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much for the info.

     

    And I thought I might add a bit of my sibelius knowledge to your implementation. You can edit the Playback dictionary in Sibelius and add the term "divisi" or "s2" as a CC change, so you don't have to write the CC changes manually every time or remember them (it will do it automatically). I have done something similar with noteperformer. 

     

    I was just confused about the CC values VI uses and how sibelius would link to VI, but you have cleared that up. Thank you so much!

    You're welcome.

    Registration of the term "divisi" sounds very interesting. I suppose you have to edit the soundset for that? Or can you define it directly in the playbackdictionary?

    Hey stefan!

     

    You just create a new term and define it within the sibelius playback dictionary. To do this, just click the "new" button, name it what you want (ex. divisi, a2, etc.), set the effect to control change, and then configure the CC values to line up with what you need for VSL. Here is what my "a2" term and definition looks like defined for noteperformer. I will probably be making another template though for use with VSL with different CC values :)

    Hope I could help!

    Thanks you so much.

    Sibelius is really great. You can do/script so much stuff.

    I love working with Sibelius and Vienna Ensemble Server.
