At least it's odd to me.
I have set up a Sibelius file to playback percussion track using midi
When I test the track in the MIXER, it plays back the percussion on channel 10 as expected.
In the actual playback, however, it plays no sounds at all.
Not quite sure where to go from here.

'...using MIDI...'

Do you mean you want Sibelius to drive an external sound source, or a third party virtual instrument?

Either way, you may need to set up a Soundset to make this work.

And you may have to jiggle around the settings in the mixer so that Sibelius does choose and use the correct sounds.

Thanks for the response Andyg.
Yes, it’s an external sound source, a KORG NS5R to be exact, that holds my GM percussion sounds. I will continue to fiddle with the sound set until I get it right.
