Re: Remove 'breaths' from winds playback?

Hmmm not sure - I'll sign into the Avid site and see... Maybe my computer/CPU itself is being overloaded? I also have this other problem that sometimes a note is just sustained ad infinitum! once it starts, it just keeps on going... And this is only happening when I 'export' audio, it seems to be ok...

Remove 'breaths' from winds playback?

I notice that the Sib. playback won't hold a tied note in the winds for very long, it presumably assumes the player would be out of air and cuts off the note. However, it does so long before a professional player would actually have to end the note. Is there a way to disable this playback feature so...

Last note of page, Sib automatically scrolls to next page...

Is there any way to stop this behaviour? Whenever I insert the last note of a page (last bar of any instrumental part), sibelius just automatically bumps me over to the next page. Which means I then have to scroll back to the previous page to see any technique/expression markings etc. I wish to add,...

Quick staff justification issue

Hi there - I've got two systems fit onto a page, but a huge empty white space between them, and I can't seem to force Sibelius to use that nice space to spread out the staves. Picture attached, the problem should be pretty clear. Any suggestions would be great! Thank you.

Re: Reinstalled Sibelius 7, cannot open my scores

SOLVED! Very stupid, it turns out I had in fact purchased 7.5 (digitally!) several years ago - and I only saw this once logging into the Avid 'products' page. Thanks for the help.

Reinstalled Sibelius 7, cannot open my scores

Hi there, I had to reformat my harddrive, and subsequently reinstalled my boxed version of Sibelius 7.1.3, and now when I go to open my .sib files it says: This score was created with a newer version of Sibelius 7. You need to update Sibelius 7 to open it. But I don't see how this is possible? I've ...

Re: Notation beaming question

That works, except then you still have the flag from the eighth notes below. Also, I want the stem to connect directly with the one above, otherwise it looks like the two sets of eighth notes are offset.

Notation beaming question

Hi there, I'm trying to connect a stem with a beam (keeping the entire rhythmic unit to a beat). Please see the attached images to understand what I'm after. The first image shows (vaguely) what I'm seeking to accomplish, with the first eighth notes BOTH connected to the adjacent beam. The second im...
