hey everybody,

is there a way to reset instrument volume/or midi reset after using the crest/ dim playback plugin? It seems to set the volume really low on the instrument after using it for the rest of the score and I can't seem to reset it using dynamics.

thanks,

I use hairpins. No problem resetting volume with dynamic markings.

So, the text cresc./dim. have no playback value on their own. Hence the need for the plugin. As an experiment, try using the plugin with hairpins, which is the first choice in the plugin description.
Hairpins, on the other hand, are definable in the Inspector to do just about whatever you want, without a plugin.
