I tried to post this earlier but it seems to have vanished. When I change an articulation in Appasionata Strings in the basses, they don't play in the proper ocatve. For example, if I am on Fast Attack, where they seem to play correctly (that is, one octave lower as is customary - I set them that way), but I switch to Staccato or Sustained, suddenly they play an ocatve too high. Very strange.

(SOLVED)Changing Bass Articulation In Synchron Changes Octave?

Solved this one myself. You have to set the bass octave-offset for each articulation you use. So, you set -1 in the Edit-ocatve section for each articulation. Works fine now. Although I still would rather use CC events to change articulations, although I don't see a way to do this.

I have now discovered that it is better to set Cakewalk's Key property to -1 octave, then you don't have to set each articulation to -1 octave. However, you then have to set keyswitches to +1 octave. This only applies to basses, which play an octave lower than they are notated. This also solves the problem I hjad with all inst's keyswitches needing to be set +1 octave.
Most here already know this, but perhaps there are a few othewre dummies like me who may benefit from it.
