Greetings, How do you get a clave sound working in Dorico?
In setup, I added a player, assigned the player to claves, added the clave pattern notes to the staff and get no sound on playback.
Just seeing if anyone has a quick answer or video to help me figure this out.
Thanks
Does this help you:
Ulf Thank You!
Although this video must be for an earlier version of Dorico, it did help me figure out something that works.
I was assuming (or thought I understood from other videos) that when you assigned an instrument to a player in setup, Dorico would automatically assign some kind of sound to go with it for playback. It appears that’s not the case and that you have to manual assign sounds and channels for each player.
I had a frantic wrestling match with Dorico, but I did finally figure something out to get what I needed.
Thanks again.
Well now I have sounds working for the staffs I have written, but no signal comes to any of the mix faders, except for the output fader.
Any idea what that’s about?
Maybe you’re not showing the appropriate faders? (There is a setting of the faders the mixer shows, on the top border of that window).
I’ve look at both “instruments” and “Midi” faders. The only signal I see coming to faders is Dorico beep, Reverb, and Output.
And none of the staff faders affect the instrument/staff volume.
Very odd!
In the mixer, there is an “Unused” button. If you hit that, do the correct faders show up? Ultimately, re-applying the playback template should cure all.
There are some VST’s that output only to tracks 1 & 2 unless one can configure them to send output to different faders. Dorico may create a fader for each instrument or Player, but that does not mean VST’s will use them automatically.
On occasion, reapplying the Playback Template will reactivate the channel assignments.
