Sibelius Spiccato

[Lidia Genta]

Hi, I have elite strings.
Is it possible to play staccato with sibelius, instead of staccato agile?
And also, is it possible to play marcato (vsl) with accent mark on sibelius?

Thanks

Hello Lidia!

The "VE Strings" sound set always triggers the staccato agile variant for Synchron Elite Strings. The bold variant doesn't have a special trigger command. If you prefer the bold variant, you could flip the two slots in Synchron Player.
You can trigger the marcato articulation with a marcato sign. The accent sign will not work.

Best regards,
Andi

Thanks, I understand.
I have a problem now with the Elite Strings II violins.
In the sound set there are no violins 2 but only violins 1 (those with id: strings.violin. ensemble.synchronpro)
And by putting these violins 1, some patches do not work. For example instead of long notes, staccatos play

And another thing: if I put the tremolo symbol, the tremolo cell doesn't play but Sibelius plays a (bad) tremolo effect.
The tremolo is activated only if I write "trem" but I'd rather not do that since it's not used much by orchestral musicians.

Hello Lidia!

There's no need for a dedicated program for Violins 2 in the Sibelius sound set if the articulations are the same as for Violins 1.

It can have different reasons why articulation changes don't work as expected or instruments play on the wrong channel. Did you go through the Troubleshooting section of the "Sibelius Integration" tutorial yet? All possible reasons that come to my mind are listed there.

If you can't find a solution there, please send the following screenshots to support@vsl.co.at.
