Cellos keep playing over an 8th note rest

@charles_piano

Then the playback is correct, I think (sorry, for some reason the file is too big to be uplaoded here!)

Thanks Charles for the work around. It seems to have resolve the issue.

and lengthen them back to an eighth, then remove the rest and rebeam.

Hi Charles, I’m trying to do the trick this morning but I’m afraid I’m lost after creating the tuples (2:1).

You say to enlighten them and turn them back to an 8th note? Are you talking about the sixteen note or also the rests?

I presume the answer is the 16th note. Then I’m left with 2 X 8th note, a 16th note rest and a tuplet (2) indication.

I’m stuck there. If I delete the rest (Édition>supprimer les silences), I have 2 unbeamed 8th notes with a number 2 below. No way I can beam them back together without deleting the number 2, which removes the tuplet.

What ever I try I don’t get the result expected.

What I’m I missing?

I should have explained more precisely, sorry! In order to be able to beam the 4 eighths together, first untie the long note, then beam, then retie:

And to hide the “2”, select it, and switch on Number in the Properties Panel

Thanks! Got it, except for the display. The 2 last 8th notes are too close and the glissando is not showing correctly.

Otherwise the sound is no more overlapping the following rest.

You’re here in Galley View, isn’t it OK in page view?

[Martin_Caron]

Same thing in Page View.

[charles_piano]

In your cut-down file, it was all right in Page View (and not in Galley View), that’s why I was asking. So I’m afraid you’ll have to tweak a bit the note spacing in Engrave Mode, probably in both Score anf Parts.

[Martin_Caron]

Thanks for your help Charles.

I will post here if Wallander comes up with an answer.

@Martin_Caron

I have copied the cello on an empty staff with no other instruments playing nearby and shorten the whole note by an 8th. I still hear an E on the following rest (upbeat of 40).

This must have something to do with Noteperformer playback.

I also have copied these 2 bars on violas and the same thing happens

Having listened to your example, I suspect that Dorico isn’t shortening the last note under the slur as NP expects (85%), due to the glissando, which makes the sounding note too long in NP.

You should then be able to workaround the problem by manually shortening the note in Play View in Dorico.

@Wallander

manually shortening the note in Play View in Dorico.

That’s what I tried, but it looks like it’s impossible:

(I’m not the OP)

[Wallander]

There seems to be a quirk with note editing in Dorico with glissandos, so that note snaps to a much greater length.

This problem can be worked around by shortening the note to the smallest possible length. It will snap to an appropriate length:

Wow, very nice, @Wallander!

So, @Martin_Caron, by follwing the suggestion by @Wallander you should be able to keep the written values and to have a correct playback.

Thanks a lot for the solution

It now works as it should.

Respectfully, this issue does not occur at all with other VSTs , only NP.

I don’t know why that is, unfortunately. I suppose the problem could be linked to certain Expression Map settings.
